Using Mastercard Agent Pay, an AI agent successfully purchased an experience on Priceless.com on behalf of a BCR customer, the entire flow being processed end to end through PayOS.
„A few years ago, this would have sounded like a future scenario. Now, together with BCR, we completed the first live, authenticated agentic transaction in Romania, in a regulated banking environment, with full security and compliance standards in place.” – says Cosmin Vladimirescu, General Manager Romania & Croatia at Mastercard.
He continues: „And this is where things start to shift. Until now, AI has mostly acted as a guide, helping you navigate options and make decisions. From now on, within limits you define, it can act on your behalf – safely, transparently, and with your explicit approval.
Collaboration with partners like BCR helps us apply these learnings to continuously improve the infrastructure and prepare the entire ecosystem for large scale adoption. This is just the beginning and I’m excited to see how responsible innovation can truly make life easier for people.”
