Techub News reported that AgentCard, a payment product supported by Alchemy, has launched a virtual card service designed to let AI Agents make online payments through the Visa network. The service allows users to set spending limits and monitor expenses in real time, giving them direct controls over how funds are used while an AI Agent carries out payment-related tasks.
The product is intended to connect programmable payments in the cryptocurrency sector with traditional card networks. According to the report, AgentCard addresses payment needs that can arise when AI Agents handle online tasks such as booking flights, renewing software subscriptions, or purchasing cloud services. These scenarios often require access to established card-based payment rails, and the virtual card service is positioned as a way to support those transactions.
AgentCard combines preset spending rules with real-time tracking features. In the product’s stated design, those functions help balance convenience with fund security: spending limits define the payment boundaries, while live monitoring lets users follow expenses as they occur.
