ChatGPT is set to make it easier for users with PayPal accounts to buy and sell products and services directly through the platform. PayPal and OpenAI have announced a new partnership that will allow users to link their PayPal wallets to ChatGPT.
This integration is expected to roll out in early 2026, providing a seamless way for users to conduct transactions within the ChatGPT environment. The announcement was made in a recent press release published on PayPal’s newsroom website.
As part of the collaboration, PayPal will adopt the “Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP)” to connect its payment and commerce systems with ChatGPT. This move aims to streamline payment processes and enhance the overall buying and selling experience for users.
For merchants utilizing ChatGPT to offer goods or services, PayPal will integrate its extensive merchant network. This connection will enable small businesses and brands to conduct transactional business directly on the platform, opening up new opportunities for growth and engagement.
PayPal President and CEO Alex Chriss highlighted that this partnership represents a significant opportunity to expand PayPal’s merchant and commerce markets into a dynamic and interactive ecosystem.
This exciting development marks a new chapter in the intersection of AI technology and online commerce, promising enhanced convenience for users and merchants alike.
