Create a reviewable payment flow
AP2 connects a customer-approved purchase to a payment authorization that can be verified by the parties processing it.
- 1
Define the checkout
Represent the selected goods, price, and merchant details in a checkout the customer can approve.
- 2
Bind payment authority
Link the approved checkout to a payment mandate so the payment context remains explicit.
- 3
Preserve evidence
Return receipts and retain the evidence needed for operations, reconciliation, and dispute handling.
AP2 integration questions
Start with the authorization and evidence your commerce flow needs.
AP2 defines checkout and payment mandates that provide cryptographic evidence of authorization for an agent-performed purchase.
AP2 is designed to operate within a commerce protocol. The commerce APIs and checkout experience can remain separate from the authorization mandates.
