Chatgpt users in the United States can now make Etsy and Shopify purchases within conversations, marking a subsequent step towards the future of online shopping, both for consumers and for the platforms that control the discovery, recommendation and payments of the products. In other words, Openai could be on the road to remodel those who have power in electronic commerce.

The new function of “instant checkout” of Openi is available for chatgpt pro, more and free users who buy from Etsy sellers based in the United States, with over 1 million shopping traders such as Glossier, Skims, Spanx and vuori “coming”, arrival “, arrival” Open.

The instant checkout is based on the previous one Purchase functions on Chatgpt That emerged that they told products, images, reviews, prices and direct connections to traders in shopping responses as “What should my friend who loves ceramics get?” Now “the best sneakers to wear in the office.” Now, Intra, in the name of having to leave the conversation, users can simply touch “Buy” to face the details of the order, shipping and payment (the options included Apple Pay, Google Pain, Stripe or credit card) to complete the purchase.

Last year, Perplexity introduced A characteristic of shopping and payments in a similar race. Microsoft also offers merchants the opportunity to create in-still showcases with the Merchant Copilot program.

This type of experience without fractions has the potential to trigger a new movement in the way people acquire online, which move away from search engines such as Google and e-commerce platforms such as Amazon towards conversational agents with well-kept recommendations, comparisons and easy checkout experiences.

It is also preparing the internship for new power brokers emerging in electronic commerce. Google and Amazon have long been the gatekeeper for detail discovery. If more purchases begin within chatbot AI, the companies behind them will suddenly have a greater control on which products have emerged and which commissions or commissions charge.

Cabin Amazon AND Google Previously they have exploited their domain to encourage their favorite products or partners, pushing competitors into the search results or by charged steep expenses to sellers simply to maintain visibility.

Chatgpt simply acts as an agent, an intermediary that can safely transmit information between user and mercant.

ACP Open-Sourcing makes it easier for merchants to integrate with chatgpt, expanding the adoption of chatbot to which work as a virtual showcase. It also expands the potential control of Openi as gatekeeper for discovery and retail checkout and could position the company as a de facto architect of the commercial ecosystem of the AI.
