payment infrastructure company MoonPay has launched a dedicated application on ChatGPT Apps, allowing users to generate purchase links within OpenAI's chatbot for buying digital assets such as Bitcoin, XRP, Solana, and USDC. When users specify a purchase amount in ChatGPT, they receive a MoonPay checkout link and are redirected to the MoonPay website to complete KYC, checkout procedures, and connect their wallet. Users who have already completed KYC for their MoonPay account can log in directly via their existing account, use their most recent payment method, and send assets to a designated address. This application is part of MoonPay's push to advance AI-driven crypto tools. Earlier this month, MoonPay acquired AI trading startup Dawn Labs and launched Dawn CLI; the company also recently introduced the MoonAgents Card, a virtual Mastercard that allows AI agents to pay online merchants directly with stablecoins from crypto wallets.
