Robinhood is enabling AI agents to trade stocks and make payments on users’ behalf, marking a significant push into agentic finance. Users can now create dedicated accounts for their AI agents, preload them with funds, and connect them via the platform’s Model Context Protocol server to execute trades, analyse portfolio risk, and identify new investment opportunities.
VP of product Abhishek Fatehpuria said the launch was driven directly by customer demand to connect their own AI tools and large language models to Robinhood’s infrastructure. The agentic trading feature launches in beta with stock trading only, with options, crypto, futures, and prediction markets to follow.
Robinhood is also introducing a virtual credit card for AI agents, initially available to Gold Card holders, allowing autonomous payments with user-defined monthly limits and optional approval controls. The move puts Robinhood alongside Stripe, Amazon, and Google in the race to build AI-native financial infrastructure.
