MoonPay's new PayBox vault lets ChatGPT and Claude execute crypto swaps and fiat payments. The non-custodial tool supports Solana, EVM chains, and Visa settlement. Live now.
MoonPay launched PayBox on Wednesday, a payment vault that lets AI assistants such as OpenAI's ChatGPT and Anthropic's Claude execute real-world transactions. Users send natural-language commands to order crypto swaps, fund purchases, or pay bills directly from the assistant's interface.
The tool runs on the open x402 standard and uses a non-custodial MPC architecture. Neither MoonPay nor the AI model holds the private keys. PayBox supports Solana and EVM chains, and it plugs into Visa's commerce protocol for fiat settlement. The product is live for direct use and integration.
The move lands as the industry debates whether AI agents will become meaningful crypto users. Coinbase's CEO predicted last month that autonomous agents will eventually outnumber human crypto participants. MoonPay's PayBox gives those agents a payment rail today.
MoonPay said the vault uses custom permissions and passkeys so users keep control of spending limits and access. The company did not disclose pricing or volume targets for the new service.
