Payments & Cards

Give agents money. Not your bank account.

Credian creates controlled wallets and virtual cards for AI agents. Users fund the wallet, set the rules, and the agent transacts automatically, but only within the guardrails.

The problem

Payments infrastructure was not built for AI agents.

If you want an AI agent to buy groceries, subscribe to a tool, or pay a vendor, your options today are risky: share your real card, give API access to your bank, or approve every single transaction manually.

Credian replaces all of that with a controlled wallet. The agent gets its own funding, its own virtual card, and its own rules. Your bank account stays untouched. If the agent tries something outside the rules, Credian blocks it before money moves.

Wallet

Dedicated agent balance

Fund an isolated wallet instead of exposing a primary bank account or main card.

Card

Scoped virtual card

Issue a card for the agent with rules attached before the first transaction happens.

Rails

ACH, wire, and FedNow

Move money through familiar rails while Credian keeps the agent in bounds.

Context

Plain language explanations

Every approval, block, and refund carries the reason behind the decision.

Wallet funding

Fund an isolated wallet instead of exposing your bank account.

Users move only the amount they want an agent to use, with each wallet separated from primary accounts.

Transaction control

Every card swipe passes through the policy engine first.

Approvals, blocks, and explanations are generated before money leaves the controlled agent wallet.

Capabilities

The full payments stack for agent commerce

Agent Wallets

Every agent gets a dedicated wallet. Users fund only the amount they are comfortable with, never exposing their primary bank account.

Virtual Cards

Issue virtual cards tied to agent wallets. Each card is controlled by Credian's policy engine, no unrestricted access.

Bank Account Connection

Users connect existing bank accounts through Plaid for secure funding. Credian verifies the source before any money moves.

ACH & Wire Transfers

Support standard money movement rails for funding wallets and settling transactions. Built for consumer and business volumes.

Fast Settlement

Infrastructure ready for instant settlement where supported. No waiting days for funds to clear.

Transaction Explanations

Every transaction includes context: what the agent did, why it spent, and which guardrail allowed it. Full transparency for users.

Use cases

How agents use Credian to move money

AI Shopping Agents

Let your agent buy products within a budget. Credian enforces merchant categories, spend limits, and blocks unauthorized purchases.

Subscription Management

Agents can manage SaaS subscriptions, renew tools, and pay recurring bills, all within preset guardrails.

Global Payments

Support for multiple currencies and international payments. Agents can transact globally while staying inside compliance rules.

Guarded Transfers

Agents can move money between wallets or to external accounts, but only if the transfer passes velocity limits and recipient rules.

How it works

Fund, set rules, transact, stay in control

01

Connect funding source

User links a bank account through Plaid. Credian verifies the account and identity.

02

Fund the wallet

Move only the amount you want the agent to use. Funds sit in the Agent Wallet, separate from your bank account.

03

Agent transacts

When the agent needs to pay, subscribe, or transfer, it uses the wallet. Every transaction goes through the policy engine first.

04

Approved or blocked

If the transaction passes all rules, it proceeds. If not, Credian blocks it instantly.

05

User sees everything

Full transaction history with explanations. Approved, blocked, failed, refunded, all visible with the reason.

06

Pause or kill anytime

Users can freeze or shut down the wallet instantly. The agent loses access to money in one click.
