What happened
Wirex launched Navoka, an AI agent that facilitates payments through Telegram using Grok and Claude. Navoka pays from a dedicated bank account and card, operating within limits set by the user without accessing their personal financial details. Each Navoka agent maintains its own IBAN, debit card, and USDC and EURC wallet.

Why it matters
The agent is designed to address low consumer trust in GenAI for payments, as Visa Inc.'s Trust Index found only 23% of US consumers trust GenAI to handle payment transactions. Juniper Research expects agentic commerce to be used by 1.3 billion people by 2031.
Visa Inc. recently announced a partnership that allows AI agents to complete payments.
