Oobit Launches Agent Cards to Spend USDT Directly on Visa Rails

Oobit, the Tether-backed global payments platform that enables users to pay and operate globally with crypto directly, has launched Agent Cards, a virtual card product built for businesses running autonomous systems. 

The cards give agents controlled spending power, funded directly from a company’s USDT stablecoin treasury. No need to convert into fiat. Each card runs on the Visa network, and spend limits are enforced server-side with no override path.

The launch targets a growing gap in enterprise operations. The global agent systems market could reach USD 10.69 billion in 2026, according to Bayelsa Watch. Currently, 62% of organizations are already experimenting with the technology. Despite this growth, payment infrastructure has not kept pace.

Autonomous Payment Systems Face a Persistent Control Problem

Autonomous systems today manage marketing automation, cloud procurement, SaaS subscriptions, and ad buying. Yet when these systems need to make a payment, most businesses face the same problem. They either share full corporate card credentials with the agent or route every charge through a human approver.

Both options carry real costs. Shared credentials create financial exposure. Manual approvals slow down the automation and reduce its value entirely. When an agent needs to spend money, pulling a human back into the loop undermines the whole purpose of automation. 

Oobit CEO Amram Adar stated, “The honest take is that the online world isn’t ready for AI agents to complete complex tasks and pay on behalf of a business or person. Agent Cards is the first move toward giving autonomous financial operations real autonomy, without losing control. Over time, as e-commerce becomes ready for the new economy, agents will operate fully on their own. We’re building to support that moment.”

Oobit’s Agent Cards offer a third path. Each agent receives one dedicated virtual Visa card with category-level spend controls and hard transaction caps set at the server level.

Every transaction, whether approved or declined, is logged in real time. Each log entry includes a human-readable reason, removing pending states and manual queues from the process entirely.

Stablecoin-Funded Cards Built for Crypto-Native Businesses

Agent Cards run on live Visa rails covering 150 million merchants across more than 100 countries. Businesses fund the cards directly from their USDT holdings. This makes Agent Cards the only product of its kind designed for companies that hold stablecoins in their treasury.

Tether, the largest stablecoin issuer with over $140 billion in circulation, backs Oobit, positioning the firm within the stablecoin economy’s core infrastructure rather than at its edges. Crypto-native businesses and those evaluating stablecoin payments can activate Agent Cards through a five-step setup process that takes under three minutes.

The first phase of Agent Cards focuses on two core workflows. The first covers payment processing, where agents handle subscription billing and vendor payouts through integrations with Stripe and similar platforms. The second covers automated expense reporting, giving finance teams a structured, real-time log of all agent transactions.

The Agent Cards can also support agents executing predefined financial actions. These include purchasing within set thresholds, booking travel based on approved budgets, and completing purchases when specific price conditions are met.

Gartner projects that by 2028, autonomous systems will outnumber human sellers by a factor of ten. As that shift accelerates, payment infrastructure built for autonomous operations becomes critical. Oobit is positioning Agent Cards at the center of that transition.
