JD.com launched the Agent Autonomous Payment Protocol (A2P2), China’s first payment standard designed specifically for AI agents. A2P2 enables agents to execute payments autonomously within rule constraints while ensuring transaction traceability and auditability. JD positions the protocol for supply-chain settlement and consumer spending scenarios, saying it fills a key trust gap in payments for the emerging intelligent economy and provides secure, compliant, and regulatory accessible payment infrastructure for large-scale agents applications.
