Today we’re announcing @deltadotnetwork integration with @Google's AP2. Link in the comments below, but here's why we're excited: AP2 creates a verifiable chain for user authorization, merchant commitment, and payment intent. But it has two significant shortcomings: 1) it does not verify that the agent’s action satisfies the substance of what the user authorized 2) it requires issuers and merchants to blindly trust the platform's attestation without having any way to verify the user's purchasing intent AP2 with delta Mandate addresses both of these problems. The user authorizes an intent mandate, the agent discovers a product, and the merchant only signs the checkout after delta has verified the proposed purchase against evidence from the actual product. This check sits outside the agent, so issuers and merchants do not need to blindly trust the platform. This matters for liability. Issuer banks are not going to underwrite delegated purchases if they cannot independently verify that the agent stayed inside the user’s mandate. They need more than an audit trail showing what happened after the fact. They need a pre-release control that ties authorization, execution, and evidence together before money moves. AP2 gives agentic commerce a much-needed authorization and transaction artifact chain. delta Mandate adds the enforcement + evidence layer required for issuers, merchants, and wallets to trust that chain at scale.
