PayPal has teamed up with Meta to integrate PayPal customers' ability to shop and checkout using their personal AI agents, Muse, across PayPal merchants worldwide. PayPal explained in a post on X that this partnership aims to make the shopping experience more seamless for customers. Muse, launched by Meta on September 8, is described as a personal AI agent designed to be simple and easy to use.
Users can communicate with Muse in the Muse app or WhatsApp, as if they were messaging a human. At launch, Muse was equipped with Link, a payment solution by Stripe, enabling it to pay at checkout. Link has over 300 million users and is accepted at more than 1 million businesses. If Muse is used at those businesses, the shopper's saved payment method is used for checkout.
Elsewhere, Link issues a single-use virtual card for the approved purchase, which the shopper approves in chat. This partnership comes after PayPal's announcement in September 2025 that it was collaborating with Google on agentic shopping and commerce experiences.
