In brief: Worldline, Crédit Agricole and Mastercard bring the agentic payment into production in France

Agentic payment leaves the field of experimentation to enter into concrete. Worldline, Agricultural credit and Mastercard announce that in France a first payment transaction was carried out by a digital agent in the production environment. A structuring step for a business where the AI prepares the purchase, but where the final decision remains in the hands of the customer.

In the scenario tested, a Crédit Agricole client entrusts a digital agent with the task of preparing his visit to a festival according to specific criteria: budget, type of event, location. The IA agent filters offers, offers a selection, then initiates the purchase route on the Weezevent ticketing site, in accordance with the framework defined with the AgentPay Mastercard solution. However, the settlement is triggered only after explicit customer validation.

From a technological point of view, Crédit Agricole retains its hands on authentication and authorisation, thanks to dedicated identifiers allowing to distinguish and trace the agent transaction throughout the chain. The entire trade flow is treated on Worldline's infrastructure, in interaction with the Mastercard network, in order to ensure continuity of service, security and interoperability with existing trading environments.

This first realization shows that agent trade can fit into existing payment lines without sacrificing the requirements of security, transparency and compliance. It paves the way for more automated purchasing routes while preparing for a larger scale deployment to the French and then European market in a controlled environment.
