Rogers Bank, Mastercard, Flybits pilot AI-driven agentic commerce payments in Canada
MA•Pilot links AI platform, issuer and network
Rogers Communications partnered with Mastercard, Flybits and Rogers Bank on Canada’s first agentic commerce transaction linking an AI platform, issuer and network.
The pilot used Mastercard’s Agent Pay to let a Flybits-managed AI assistant buy within consumer-set rules, including validated instructions and preset spending limits.
Standards for consumer-controlled AI payments
The collaboration targets standards for consumer-controlled, transparent and secure AI-driven payments as agentic commerce scales across Canada.
Mastercard said a consumer survey found 41% were open to AI shopping assistants, while 53% were comfortable with AI purchases within preset preferences and budgets.
