Robinhood has announced the launch of Agentic Trading and the Agentic Credit Card, enabling AI agents to trade and make credit card purchases on your behalf.
Whether you’re looking to execute a specific trading strategy, or simply buy the cheapest flight available, you can build agents to help manage your investments and spending safely and autonomously. You can now give your agents direct access to Robinhood without the workarounds or unofficial APIs holding you back elsewhere.
“Our mission has always been to democratize finance for all, and now, that mission extends to AI agents,” said Vlad Tenev, CEO of Robinhood.
Agents can now access the power of Robinhood’s trading platform. You can open a dedicated agentic trading account separate from the rest of your portfolio, meaning your agent only has access to the funds you deposit into that account. You’ll get push notifications any time your agent makes a trade and can see a real-time activity feed and P&L directly in the Robinhood apps. If you ever need to pause trading, you can disconnect the agent at any time with the tap of a button.
Your agent can define strategies based on your investing and trading goals in your Agentic Trading account.
Agentic Trading is launching in beta with support for equities only out of the gate. Support for options, crypto, event contracts, futures, and more are coming soon as the service moves out of beta.
The Agentic Credit Card empowers your agents to spend on your behalf by connecting them to Robinhood Banking’s MCP server. During setup, you’ll connect your agent to a dedicated virtual Robinhood Gold Card, set a specific spending limit that only you control and choose whether to require manual approvals or not. By default, agents are restricted to that individual virtual card only, with no access to your primary credit card number or any other Robinhood account information.
Once up and running, the agent can scan for the best prices, monitor availability, and make purchases automatically based on your instructions, all while earning 3% cash back.
The Agentic Credit Card is available to existing Robinhood Gold Card customers, with support for the Robinhood Platinum Card to follow when the card launches later this year.
Robinhood says that, over the coming weeks and months, it will expand the capabilities of both Agentic Trading and the Agentic Credit Card and will introduce new AI-powered products that are geared toward the everyday investor, not just those who consider themselves experts.
