Travel industry prepares for agentic commerce era
Original: Trust, identity and payments: Preparing for agentic commerce in travel
PhocusWire examines how the travel sector must adapt trust, identity verification and payment systems as AI agents begin booking and paying for travel on behalf of consumers. The piece argues that agentic commerce will require new infrastructure so machines can transact securely, raising questions about accountability, fraud prevention and how travel brands establish credibility with AI intermediaries rather than human customers.
