AP2 Payment Mandate Integration
Implements the AP2 Payment Mandate protocol to signal AI involvement and secure user authorization within the agentic commerce payment ecosystem.
The AP2 Payment Mandate skill enables Claude to implement a specialized Virtual Digital Container (VDC) for the payment ecosystem, facilitating secure communication between merchant payment processors and payment networks like Visa or Mastercard. It provides a standardized framework for signaling agentic transaction origins, proving user presence (human-present vs. human-not-present), and delivering cryptographic authorization proof. By managing fields like tokenized payment methods (DPAN) and refund periods, this skill ensures that AI-initiated transactions are transparent, compliant, and lower-risk for issuers and merchants alike.
