Walmart Agent Gateway and Agent Profiles
Walmart's MCP server that lets approved third-party AI agents search inventory and buy for shoppers, with per-agent spending caps.
Overview
Walmart CEO John Furner launched Agent Gateway on October 21, 2026 at the Masters of Scale Summit. It is an MCP server through which approved AI agents can search Walmart inventory and purchase on behalf of customers. Each agent gets its own Agent Profile with a separate account space, spending caps and per-purchase approvals; agents cannot see payment information or purchase history, and non-compliant agents are blocked. The program extends to Sam's Club and does not require a Walmart+ membership.
