October 01, 2025

OpenAI is working with payment processing company Stripe to allow US shoppers to buy products through ChatGPT, its popular artificial intelligence (AI) tool.

The feature is being rolled out to let ChatGPT users purchase goods from Etsy, with plans to soon extend it to Shopify, Stripe said in a statement on Sept 29.

The goal is for ChatGPT to act like a digital personal shopper, Ms Emily Glassberg Sands, Stripe’s head of data and AI, said.

Etsy shares rose over 16 per cent after the announcement, the biggest jump since early 2022, while Shopify rose more than 6 per cent.
