Safely Scaling Subscriptions in the Age of Agentic Commerce: A Merchant’s Guide
MRC Vegas 2026
Dharmendra Kumar, Ashwin Das Gururaja
Mar 18, 2026
Presentations
As agentic AI begins to power subscription commerce, merchants face a new frontier: enabling agents to drive discovery and purchases while navigating heightened fraud and operational risks. Emerging agent-to-agent payment frameworks promise seamless transaction flows—but they also widen the attack surface, particularly in recurring and trial-based models. With multiple standards and offerings evolving in parallel, the challenge is balancing innovation with security and control.
This session will explore how merchants can:
Approach agentic commerce from a merchant-first perspective, with attention to recurring and subscription models.
Enable agent-driven subscription flows at the right level of abstraction - balancing ease of adoption with visibility and control.
Preserve trust, compliance, and transparency across agent-initiated transactions.
Design secure, user-centric interactions that give consumers confidence to engage with agents of their choice.
Attendees will leave with a strategic view of how to safely enable agentic commerce, plus actionable guidance to safeguard revenue, protect customer trust, and remain adaptable as protocols and standards mature
