That said, when Meta Muse officially launched in September 2026, Stripe was brought in as the primary exclusive launch partner for native agentic checkout.
There are a couple of reasons deeper integration feels probable. Back in April 2026, Meta and PayPal expanded their partnership to allow one-tap shopping directly inside Facebook and Instagram feeds. The technical infrastructure connecting PayPal's wallet to Meta's ecosystem is already in place, so native integration into the Muse AI agent looks like the next logical step.
On top of that, both companies face heavy pressure from Apple's ecosystem, especially Apple Pay and Apple Intelligence. A unified alliance between Meta's AI and PayPal's 400-million-user wallet would give them a serious competitive edge.
