Agents

1
It starts with a simple request.
The agent captures the user’s intent to “buy this for me,” which is where Basis Theory steps in.

2
User selects a payment method.
Users can use the method they want to pay—stored cards, wallets, and bank accounts are available.

3
User consent and verification.
The user verifies their identity and gives consent for the agent to purchase on their behalf. Basis Theory handles this authorization, consent, and card network logic in real-time with no dev work required.

4
Agent is granted a virtual card.
A virtual card is generated with exact limits (amount, merchant, time), ensuring secure, single-use payment for agent use.

5
Purchase details are delivered to the merchant.
Our platform submits the scoped payment and order details directly to the merchant and routes the payment and request with full traceability.

6
The merchant confirms the order.
We return the confirmation so the agent can close the loop seamlessly and transparently. Every party gets what they need, without added coordination or manual steps
