Making one traffic light intelligent doesn’t make a city intelligent 🚦 You need the entire city, every traffic light working together through one intelligent engine. The same is true for financial services, and I believe businesses today have 2 important tasks: 1️⃣ First, existing tasks are getting more complex. Capacity is slowing down global progress, and we need to leverage AI to do more with less. 2️⃣ Second, a new way of doing business is emerging. Agents are becoming a new workforce and sales force, and every company will need to prepare for an agentic commerce journey. At Ant International, we are building for both. When businesses expand globally, complexity keeps multiplying — more markets, accounts, currencies, liquidity and FX exposure. Payment is just the beginning. At VOYAGE 2026, we unveiled the industry's first full-stack, AI-native solutions across payment, account, FX, treasury and growth — with 2 proprietary foundation models bringing AI into every layer of the financial stack to simplify complexity and accelerate growth. Because solving one problem alone is not enough. We need a unified, integrated approach to fully unleash the power of AI. And as agents become part of how businesses operate and transact, financial infrastructure must evolve with them, with the trust, protection and capabilities needed for an agentic environment. The future is not about doing more with more. It is about using AI to do more with less and unlocking a new way of doing business.

We’re pleased to expand our cooperation with ING Wholesale Banking, with the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at Sibos 2026 in Miami. 🌍 We are bringing together our fintech ecosystem and AI capabilities with ING’s deep banking expertise to explore ways to enhance cross-border payment connectivity between Europe and Asia, driving greater financial inclusion and payment innovation for businesses and consumers. Our collaboration with ING will focus on exploring Agentic and Cross-Border Payment Solutions with Alipay+ to better serve merchants and travelers, broadening online payment capabilities for smoother Cross-Border Payment Experiences across EMEA and APAC via Antom, and Real-time Global Treasury Management, including AI-Enabled FX management and potential tokenized deposits solutions via Bettr. This partnership marks a key step in bringing our newly launched FinAI strategy to life through the deployment of full-stack AI-native solutions and agentic payment capabilities and explore alongside ING, a leading global bank, helping to redefine cross-border finance. 🚀

At #Sibos2026 in Miami, Clara Shi, CEO of WorldFirst shared how embedded payments are changing the landscape for B2B finance, reaching far beyond just checkout. Alongside Carmela Gómez Castelao, Ivy Lee, Bernadette Ksepka, and moderator Alla Gancz, Clara shared how payments, treasury and workflows are becoming smarter and more connected: 🌍 The rise of mini multinationals: SMBs are increasingly operating across borders and need simpler, seamless account solutions across payment, account and liquidity management. 💡 Smart treasury requires AI and data: With data, AI can forecast businesses’ liquidity and FX positions and make recommendations. 💻 The future of treasury will be highly agentic: Agents will play a greater role in automatic treasury functions, but human decision making will always be needed to truly understand customers’ needs and provide oversight. Thanks to Sibos and all the panelists for a lively and inspiring conversation!

A new world of commerce. 🌏 Alipay+ and Mastercard have come together to bridge the fast-growing global wallet community to even more merchants worldwide - now with both QR and NFC, we strive towards greater connectivity, bringing people and businesses closer than ever.

The AMP’s source code, developer SDKs and related technical documentation are now fully open-sourced. We invite developers, AI platforms, wallets, acquirers and financial institutions worldwide to join us on this journey to lay the foundation for a secure, inclusive agentic economy.
