Agentic AI is rapidly evolving into agentic commerce, with PayPal leading the charge by integrating AI tools and emphasizing value-added services for merchants.

Agentic Commerce Takes Center Stage

PayPal has positioned itself at the forefront of the emerging agentic commerce trend, leveraging AI to transform customer and merchant experiences. The company announced its initiatives during its Q1 earnings call and its Developer Days event in Silicon Valley. CEO Alex Chriss highlighted the rapid advancements, stating, “The future is here.”

Key developments include:

  • Launch of the PayPal Agent Toolkit, enabling seamless integration with AI frameworks.
  • Partnerships with Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft to build AI-powered commerce tools.
  • Demonstrations of AI Shopping Companions and Merchant Assistants.

Value-Added Services (VAS) Fuel Growth

PayPal is doubling down on its payment service provider (PSP) business and VAS to boost transaction margins. Chriss described VAS as a “massive untapped and margin-rich opportunity.” Highlights include:

  • Optimized debit routing: Reduces merchant transaction fees.
  • Fraud Protection Advanced: Uses machine learning to mitigate risks.
  • Strong Q1 performance: VAS revenue grew 17% to $775 million.

Financial Highlights

  • Total Payment Volume (TPV): Grew 4% to $417 billion.
  • Active Accounts: Increased to 436 million.
  • Branded Experiences: TPV grew 8%, driven by PayPal debit cards (100%+ growth) and Venmo (50%+ growth).

Strategic Vision

PayPal’s agentic commerce tools are part of its Open Platform, enabling end-to-end shopping processes. Chriss sees this as the “next era of commerce.” The company aims to empower developers and merchants with secure, scalable solutions.
