MoonPay Launches Infrastructure for AI Agent Crypto Payments


Crypto payments firm MoonPay has introduced MoonPay Agents, a non-custodial infrastructure layer that enables #AIAgents to create wallets, fund them, and transact in digital assets without ongoing human intervention.


The product is built on MoonPay's developer-focused command-line interface, MoonPay CLI, and extends the firm's existing fiat-to-crypto payment rails to autonomous software systems.


Under the model, a user completes a one-time identity verification process and funds a wallet through MoonPay's checkout. After that initial setup, an AI agent can trade, swap, and transfer digital assets programmatically on the user's behalf. Wallets generated through the system are non-custodial and stored on the user's device rather than held by MoonPay.


"AI agents can reason, but they cannot act economically without capital infrastructure," said Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO and founder of MoonPay. "MoonPay is the bridge between AI and money."
