    Sessions enable any business that needs streaming payments, like inference, compute, and data, to charge agents as they use their services. Learn how @stripe uses MPP Sessions to accept streaming payments:
    Jen @BackseatVC
    Streaming payments are a super interesting business model now that agents can pay-per-call for tools Stripe now supports streaming payments using @mpp Sessions, which allows agents to pay subcent transactions for a session, and then settle the final amount when finished. Could be really useful for streamed compute, LLM interference, data analysis, and more. Get started:

    Agents are now shopping online and they've got money to spend. They can even get discounts! 0 onchain fees for agents when paying with stablecoins on @stripe stores:
    Jen @BackseatVC
    Agents are much more likely than humans to make microtransactions which work especially well over stablecoins Usually that means merchants selling tools to agents would have to manage crypto-specifics, like gas facilitation Now, @stripe takes care of that for you with your @mpp integration. We deal with the crypto side and pay for gas, and payments just land in your Stripe balance Get started and one-shot your integration:

    RT @atomHQ: Earlier this year we launched Atom's MCP server so AI agents could search, appraise, and check domains on Atom. One step was still missing: paying for one. Today that's closed. Atom is one of the first domain platforms live on @stripe and @tempo's Machine Payments Protocol. An agent gets a price, receives a 402, pays, and the domain lands in its user's account. No checkout page, no human in the loop. Registrations and premium marketplace domains, live today.

    RT @jazzicoop: Agentic payments will be multi-platform and multi-rail. Our job is to make XRP and RLUSD first-class options wherever developers are building. The latest XRPL AI Starter Kit expands support for the open standards developers are converging on: Open Wallet Standard, MPP from Tempo + Stripe, and x402, alongside new tooling to make building on XRPL even easier. Let's meet developers where they are.
