• Each Bot works on a persistent cloud computer with a browser.[1]
• At checkout it can use a card saved in Vault, a card entered in a Secure Form, or a connected wallet such as Link or X Money. With Link, the person approves a one-time card for a single purchase.[2][3]

• Shop Pay is listed as a payment option, including at stores that are not on Shopify.[6]

Sites its browser can reach. xAI's FAQ says some sites block automation or traffic from cloud computers; the person can then route the Bot's traffic through their own computer.[4]

• Runs on Muse Secure VM, a dedicated computer with its own browser.[1]
• Checks out with Link by Stripe. Where a business accepts Link, Muse uses the payment method saved in Link; elsewhere Link issues a single-use virtual card scoped to the approved purchase.[1][2]
• Asks before it makes a purchase. The person approves each transaction total in the chat.[1][2]
• Shop Pay was announced as coming soon. Shop's help page says Muse can use Shop Pay only at stores on Shopify.[1][3]

• Rye's buy-anything skill lets OpenClaw agents check out at Amazon and Shopify stores with tokenized payments.[2]

• A person can text a photo and it finds similar products on Amazon. It can watch an item and send a text when the price drops.[2]
• For eligible products from other stores, Buy for Me: the person confirms address, taxes, shipping and payment method on Amazon's checkout page, then Amazon's AI completes the purchase on the merchant's website.[3][4]
