Alipay said that in February 2026 the product exceeded 100 million users, and has processed 300 million transactions to date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Meanwhile, its AI payment processing product supports pay-per-use monetisation for businesses through integration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The newly launched AI Wallet extends this system by providing users with \u201cgreater visibility and control\u201d over payments initiated by AI agents.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The feature is available by searching \u201cAI Wallet\u201d in the Alipay App. Alipay said the tool lets users manage agent tasks before and during checkout, and review and analyse spending after payment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Alipay also said it launched China\u2019s first Agentic Commerce Trust Protocol with partners, which it described as a \u201ccommon language\u201d for collaboration between AI and service platforms. The company added that it has introduced an intelligent security system for AI payments to provide \u201cfoundational safeguards\u201d for agent-driven transactions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The company\u2019s Token Pay is positioned as a payments offering for AI model companies. Alipay said it provides a \u201cone-stop, full-suite solution\u201d covering global subscription payments, token top-ups within AI agents and related transaction needs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Ant Group CEO Cyril Han said: \u201cWhile the essence of commerce remains unchanged in the age of AI, the emergence of AI agents is reshaping everything. Drawing on 22 years of technological expertise and commercial know-how, Alipay is building a new generation of AI payment services to accelerate the growth of the agentic commerce ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">At the Alipay AI Payment Ecosystem Conference, AI model companies MiniMax and Stepfun announced collaborations with Alipay. They will use Alipay\u2019s full-stack AI payment solution for token top-ups, membership subscriptions and marketing campaigns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">&#8220;Alipay expands AI payment infrastructure with AI Wallet, Token Pay&#8221; was originally created and published by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electronicpaymentsinternational.com\/news\/alipay-ai-wallet-token-pay\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Electronic Payments International;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Electronic Payments International&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Electronic Payments International<\/a>, a GlobalData owned brand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The information on this site has been included in good faith for general informational purposes only.
