Agentic Commerce helps New Zealand businesses connect their product and payment systems into the new generation of agent-driven commerce — across OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta.
These are not four copies of the same protocol. OpenAI's Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) shares your catalogue with ChatGPT. Google's Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) covers the shopping journey, with Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) for signed payment mandates and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) as the way agents talk to each other. Anthropic's Claude for commerce is a blueprint for an agent inside your own app, and it stops before payment. Meta is testing in-app discovery and one-tap checkout, plus a messaging agent, without an open commerce protocol of its own.
From your existing product or checkout data, we prepare the feeds, checkout handoffs, and payment flows each of those surfaces actually asks for, so your products can be found and bought wherever customers are already talking to an agent.
We help NZ brands, distributors, and retailers prepare for a world where AI agents handle product discovery, and sometimes checkout, across OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta.
An ACP product feed is how ChatGPT reads your catalogue. Google's UCP covers discovery through to post-purchase, and AP2 adds a signed payment mandate when an agent is allowed to pay. A2A is only the transport between agents, not a second checkout standard.

AI-driven commerce is moving fast, and the four big surfaces do not offer the same thing. OpenAI's ACP puts your catalogue into ChatGPT, with in-chat checkout only for approved partners. Google's UCP is the shopping journey on AI Mode and Gemini, and AP2 is the payment mandate underneath it.
Anthropic's Claude for commerce, launched in 2026, lets a retailer run a shopping agent that fills a cart and then hands the buyer to the merchant's own checkout. Meta is testing one-tap checkout on Facebook and Instagram, and a Business Agent that can sell in WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram messages.
New Zealand businesses can prepare the catalogue and checkout once, and be ready as each surface opens further.
Instant Checkout starts in ChatGPT for approved US merchants. In 2026 the emphasis shifts to product discovery, with the merchant's own checkout for everyone else
AP2 launches in 2025 with 60+ partners. UCP follows in January 2026 for discovery, checkout, and post-purchase on AI Mode and Gemini
Claude for commerce is an open blueprint that does not take payment. Meta tests in-app checkout and a messaging agent, with no open protocol of its own
The rise of agent-driven commerce benefits any NZ business selling physical products or handling payments online. If your brand sells goods, manages catalogues, or takes online payments, preparing for OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta means your products can be discovered, and purchased where that surface actually checks out, inside the agent your customer is already using.
