Cloudflare announced Wallets. AI agents aren't equipped to make purchases right now. They have no native way to pay for APIs, which anyone running Claude Code sees constantly: it hits a paywall, stalls, and kicks back to you to enter a card or start a subscription.
Agents do not have a stable identifier to sign up for an API, and they do not have a native way to pay for APIs.
Cloudflare, Introducing Cloudflare Wallets
Cloudflare is building an ecosystem where agents manage their own wallets inside human-set guardrails and transact with each other. I imagine this starts with APIs and inference calls, then expands from there.
