A new offering from Ballerine

A platform built for ongoing
‍trust & governance
in agent-driven commerce.

The Trusted Agentic Commerce Enablement Platform helps PSPs prepare,
govern, and audit merchants across agent-driven commerce through
continuous monitoring, policy controls, and audit-ready evidence.

For PSPs

What you can offer your merchants

Enablement, not friction. Confidently tell merchants: "We're preparing you for agentic
commerce and helping you unlock new growth channels — safely."
Enablement, not friction
Give merchants a clear readiness path and fast,
predictable approval for agentic platforms
instead of opaque rejections.
Fewer disputes & chargebacks
Proactively detect "hallucination risks" like
unclear pricing or hidden subscriptions before
they trigger AI-initiated chargebacks.
No surprises
Risk is flagged before enforcement is required.
Merchants receive clear remediation steps,
protecting trust and acceptance.

Continuous operation after merchant enablement

Ballerine sits between PSPs and Agentic Commerce Platforms, ensuring ongoing trust without controlling platform access.

What the platform runs continuously

This is not a one-time check. Ballerine operates as a live layer to ensure merchant
actions match agent promises.
Inventory Integrity Checks
Verifying that stock levels and catalog data match
what is exposed to the agent network.
Policy Drift Detection
Monitoring for discrepancies between merchant
policies (e.g., returns) and agent representations.
Merchant Legitimacy Signals
Continuous background checks on beneficial
owners and business status changes.
Behavioral Anomalies
Detecting sudden spikes in agent traffic or unusual
transaction patterns indicative of fraud.
Remediation Workflows
Automated alerts to PSPs and merchants to fix
issues before they result in disputes.
Audit-Ready Evidence
Immutable logs of every check and policy state for
regulatory and dispute resolution.
Workflow

How the Platform Operates

Operationalizing agent-driven commerce in two continuous phases: Enablement and Governance .
1
Initial Readiness
Preparation & Enablement
Eligibility & Legitimacy
Ballerine scans merchant data to verify eligibility for agent channels,
checking business verification signals and operational history.
Policy Configuration
Agent-specific policy controls (regional limits, max transaction value) are
configured to align with PSP risk appetite.
Readiness Profiles
The platform generates compatible readiness profiles. Merchants that
complete the Trusted Agentic Commerce Enablement Platform can be
programmatically prepared and submitted for agent-platform evaluation,
subject to platform review.
2
Continuous Governance
The loop that never stops
Once enabled, the platform shifts to active monitoring. We don't just
set it and forget it; we actively govern the channel.
Inventory Integrity & Change Detection
Real-time monitoring of stock and catalog changes.
Policy Drift & Enforcement
Immediate alerts if merchants drift outside agreed parameters.
Audit Logs & Evidence
Every signal and check is recorded for PSP oversight.
Continuous operation after merchant enablement
Once merchants are prepared for agent-platform evaluation, the platform continues to operate as a trust
and governance layer. Changes in inventory, catalog, policies, and risk signals are monitored
continuously. PSPs receive alerts, dashboards, and audit-ready evidence without re-onboarding
merchants.
