Stripe adds incremental authorizations and spending insights to the Link agentic wallet
Stripe introduces three improvements to the Link agentic wallet: incremental authorizations, spending insights, and purchase protection. Incremental authorizations allow agents to increase the amount when the final price exceeds the originally approved amount, avoiding the need to place a new order; spending insights analyze transaction data from more than 12,000 financial institutions based on Financial Connections to improve recommendations.
