What it is
Describe how agents buy from merchants in incumbent commerce stacks, overlapping with payment rails such as MPP and x402.
Who maintains it
Stripe
Payment / transport model
Public coverage currently comes from Stripe’s agentic-commerce documentation cluster. zFinia treats ACP as overlapping vocabulary with MPP/x402, not as a synonym.

Stripe-described merchant stack
Evidence
Named in Stripe’s 18 March 2026 machine-payments documentation. Independent protocol specification coverage remains thin on this desk.

Record exists because the name is in a primary Stripe source. It is not a claim that ACP is the market standard.

Agent commerce protocols proliferate beyond crypto-native stacks

Through 2025–2026, incumbent payments and model vendors published overlapping agent-commerce interfaces. Stripe describes an Agentic Commerce Protocol alongside MPP and x402 support. Visa shipped Intelligent Commerce. The overlapping vocabulary is a classification problem for buyers and a coverage obligation for zFinia.
