Overview

OpenAI Commerce encompasses the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) and ChatGPT's instant checkout feature, enabling users to discover and purchase products without leaving the ChatGPT conversation. The ACP is an open standard that defines how AI agents communicate with merchants and payment processors to complete transactions — covering product discovery, pricing, cart management, payment authorization, and order confirmation. Powered by Stripe on the payment side, OpenAI Commerce handles the full transaction flow while maintaining PCI compliance and fraud protection. For merchants, integration means their products become purchasable by ChatGPT's 900M+ weekly users through natural conversation. The protocol is open-sourced, meaning any AI agent (not just ChatGPT) can implement it, positioning ACP as a potential industry standard for agentic commerce. Over 1 million Shopify merchants are expected to connect through this protocol.
