Grok Bot Got a Wallet: What xAI's Shopping Agent Actually Does With Your Money

xAI's Grok Bot can now complete purchases via a connected Stripe Link wallet. The key detail: it never sees your card. Each purchase raises an approval card (merchant + amount); only after you approve does Link issue a one-time-use virtual card. Unanswered requests expire in about 10 minutes.

Ignore Musk's card-photo suggestion — his own platform Community-Noted it, since xAI's terms warn against putting personal info in prompts. Use the approval flow with a low-limit virtual card.

Still unclear: countries, spending limits, refunds. The plumbing (single-use tokens, per-purchase approval) is the real story — it's the trust infrastructure every shopping agent will need.
