围绕 AI 代理(AI agents)能否自动完成支付 的基础设施竞赛已经开始。未来的软件不仅会调用 API、执行任务,还可能 自己购买数据、算力、服务甚至实体商品。
目前并没有一个统一标准。相反,几家大型科技与金融公司正在构建不同组件,共同组成正在形成的 AI 支付栈(AI payments stack)。
其中四个最重要的玩家分别是:
Coinbase:把支付嵌入 Web 协议本身
Stripe / Tempo:建立机器之间的支付协调协议
Google:定义 AI 代理如何证明自己被授权花钱
Visa:让商户能够安全接受 AI 代理发起的支付
这些方案并不完全互相替代,而更像是在争夺 AI 商业体系中的不同关键层。
四种正在竞争的 AI 代理支付方案
Coinbase:x402 —— 把支付嵌入 HTTP
Coinbase 推出的 x402 协议尝试把支付直接嵌入互联网最基础的通信协议 HTTP 中。
核心思路是重新启用很少使用的 HTTP 状态码 402 “Payment Required(需要付款)”,让服务器在返回 API 请求时直接要求付款。
