Constructor launches Stripe-powered agentic checkout

Constructor has launched Agentic Checkout with Stripe, allowing shoppers to complete purchases inside an AI shopping agent.

The feature is now available globally. Constructor says it is the first company to offer Stripe-powered checkout within an on-site shopping agent.

The product brings discovery, recommendations and payment into one interface on retail sites and apps. Shoppers can ask broad questions, narrow their options, get answers about specific products and pay without moving to a separate checkout flow.

Stripe enables payment within the agent through Link by Stripe and other payment methods. The feature is already available in Constructor's AI Shopping Agent and AI Product Insights Agent.

The launch reflects a broader move by retailers to test AI tools beyond search and recommendations. Many existing agentic shopping tools help consumers find products but still send them back into a standard eCommerce journey when it is time to buy.

Keeping checkout inside the same conversation may reduce the number of steps between product selection and payment. The update is intended to limit drop-off after customers have already shown intent to purchase.

Retailers using Constructor's shopping agents can enable the Stripe checkout option by updating Constructor's user interface library and adding Stripe credentials to their configuration. Retailers not already using Stripe can also turn on the feature without changing payment arrangements elsewhere in their business.

Constructor works with retailers including Sephora, Under Armour, The Very Group, White Stuff, Target Australia and AMI Paris. Companies using both Constructor and Stripe can now connect the two systems to add in-agent checkout.
