AI agents for payments and spend management
Give your payments team agents that never move money past a limit
Three agents for disputes, card spend and vendor payments. The ones analysts call act as that analyst, refunds and batches stay under the caps you set, and no agent releases a payment. Every call lands in one audit record.

Regulation
Answer PCI DSS, Reg E and sanctions rules from one record
Payments agents touch card data, consumer disputes and money leaving the business. These are the rules that reach them.
PCI DSS v4.0.1
What it asks
Systems that store, process or transmit cardholder data are in scope, and so is anything connected to them.
What Dome gives you
A guard strips card numbers from dispute records before a model sees them. Payment method exports through an agent are refused.
Regulation E (EFTA) error resolution
What it asks
Consumer disputes over electronic transfers must be investigated within set deadlines, with provisional credit and a written result.
What Dome gives you
The disputes agent drafts evidence and issues refunds up to the analyst's limit. Every read, draft and refund is recorded with the analyst it acted for.
BSA/AML and OFAC sanctions screening
What it asks
Payments to sanctioned parties are prohibited, and programs must show how payees are screened.
What Dome gives you
The payments agent screens payees before it drafts a batch and can't release one. A payee without a screening result is refused by a rule.
FAQ
Common questions
What can AI agents do for a payments team?
Working disputes, reviewing card spend and preparing vendor payment batches are common first agents. On Dome each runs inside limits: refund caps, read-only where it should be, and no payment releases.
Can an AI agent issue refunds?
Up to a limit you set. A rule checks the amount against the analyst's limit on every call, and anything over it is refused and recorded.
Are AI agents in scope for PCI DSS?
If an agent can see cardholder data, the systems it runs through are in scope. The simpler path is to keep card data away from the agent: redact it at the gateway before any model call, and record every call.
How do you stop an AI agent from paying a sanctioned party?
Don't let it release payments. The agent drafts batches after screening each payee, a rule refuses any payee without a clear result, and your people release the batch.
