Let an AI shop for you, and keep proof of what you asked
Set your limits once. MandatePay signs them, checks every cart against them, and gives the store the record if a payment is disputed.
Runs on the PayPal sandbox. No real money moves.

When an AI buys something, who decides it was the right thing?
Today nobody can prove it. That is a problem for shoppers and for stores.
Without a record
The agent buys the wrong size. The buyer says they never asked for that, and the store says they did. PayPal has to guess, and honest people lose.
With MandatePay
What you asked for is signed before anything is bought, and each cart is checked against it. If there is a dispute, that signed record is the evidence.
Four steps, and you stay in charge
From a sentence to a paid order, with your limits signed before anything is bought.
- 1
Say what you want
Type it or speak it: budget, size, colour, and when you need it.
- 2
Sign your limits
Your request becomes a signed mandate. It is yours, and you can cancel it at any time.
- 3
Shop your way
Browse the store yourself or let your agent pick. Every cart is checked against your mandate.
- 4
Pay with PayPal or card
If something is wrong, report it and the store can refund you without a PayPal dispute.
Every step leaves a record
From the first request to the final decision, each link is stored, so a dispute is settled by what happened.

Disputes settled with facts, not guesses
When a buyer disputes a payment, an AI analyst reads the signed mandate, the cart and the payment, and recommends what to do. A person always has the final say.
- Built from records. The analyst only uses what was signed, ordered and paid, never anyone’s word alone.
- Safe by design. Code rules block unsafe actions and double refunds, and send anything the AI is unsure about to a person.
- You decide. Nothing is sent to PayPal until a person approves it.
Send the evidence to the buyer
- The buyer signed a mandate for white trainers, size 10
- The cart matched it: within budget, right size
- Paid from the buyer’s own PayPal account

Built on PayPal and AI
Each one has a specific job, and the AI never acts alone: a person approves what is sent to PayPal.
What PayPal does
- Orders and Card Fields for checkout, with 3-D Secure
- The Disputes API to send evidence, offers and messages
- Verified webhooks, so disputes arrive on their own
- Refunds, read back from PayPal so none is paid twice
- Log in with PayPal, to match the payer to the buyer
What the AI does
- Turns a sentence into limits you sign
- Shops for you, from real products only
- Settles the cart checks that rules cannot
- Reads a dispute against the record, scored on 28 labelled cases
- Is overridden by code rules when an answer would be unsafe
- Lets your own AI agent shop inside your limits, but never pay for you
