Visa Expands Stablecoin Settlement, Cites $7 Billion Annual Volume, Partners With OpenAI on AI Agent Payments
Visa said it moves $7 billion a year in stablecoins through its network and is expanding stablecoin settlement and tokenized deposits, while partnering with OpenAI to let AI agents make online purchases after users grant permission.
The initiatives, unveiled at Payments Forum 2026, are part of broader AI, tokenization and blockchain efforts and include tools for AI-driven transaction verification. Visa said stablecoins are reshaping the back end of commerce as it broadens those payment capabilities.
