Shopify Brings Shop Pay Checkout Solution to Meta’s Muse AI Agent
What's happening
Shopify and Meta announced a partnership to enable agentic checkout with Shop Pay on all Shopify stores, integrating Shop Pay into Meta's Muse AI shopping assistant, CEO Tobias Lütke said. The move follows other Muse integrations, including PayPal for global checkout, and comes as Muse has rapidly climbed app charts and drawn pushback from some merchants and platforms (Amazon has blocked Muse from shopping on its site). Meta is also testing human callers to supplement Muse after merchants sometimes hang up on AI-driven calls.
Why it's trending
This is rising because Muse is expanding checkout integrations (Shop Pay, PayPal) even as major platforms and merchants push back or restrict the agent.
