MoonPay Launches MoonAgents Card for AI Agents
Contents
MoonPay MoonAgents Card Launch
MoonPay has launched the stablecoin debit card called MoonAgents Card, which enables AI agents and users to spend directly from their on-chain wallets. This virtual Mastercard can be used at online merchants worldwide that accept Mastercard by converting stablecoins to fiat at the time of payment. The card integrates with stablecoins like AB detailed analysis, eliminating the pre-loading or off-chain transfer requirements of existing stablecoin cards. The company emphasizes that this product is specifically designed for AI agents and is issued through the regulated payment platform Monavate as part of a new card issuance agreement signed with Exodus Movement.
The Card's On-Chain Technical Features
Monavate manages on-chain funding and authorization in real-time; if a transaction is rejected, funds return to the user's wallet instantly. User custody is never transferred at any stage, and approvals can be canceled at any desired moment. This, when combined with tools like AB futures, ensures seamless transaction flow for AI agents. The card, currently accessible in the United Kingdom and Latin America via MoonPay CLI, requires identity verification; US and EU markets will launch in the coming months.
Leaders' AI Payment Vision
MoonPay founder and CEO Ivan Soto-Wright states that agents already manage wallets, transact, and carry value, but cannot spend at merchants. Exodus founder JP Richardson says they are extending their ten years of self-custody wallet expertise to agents. Binance founder CZ predicts that AI agents will make millions of times more payments than humans; Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Stripe president John Collison also emphasize that agents will transact with crypto wallets without opening bank accounts.
Stablecoins and the Future of AI-Based Trading
This move points to a future where AI agents will transact at millions of merchants at machine speed. In the sector, stablecoins and fast blockchains stand out as key elements that will accelerate agent-based trading. MoonAgents Card accelerates the integration of the crypto ecosystem into daily spending, carrying the potential to transform the on-chain economy.
