![AEON, the settlement layer for the agentic economy, has expanded AEON Pay into Zambia, integrating local wallets Airtel Money and MTN Mobile Money. Zambian users can now spend digital assets seamlessly while merchants receive instant settlement in Zambian Kwacha (ZMW). This development bridges the gap between decentralized retail financing and established localized payment behaviors, while providing a crucial real-world terminal layer for autonomous AI agents.

According to the Bank of Zambia FinScope 2025 Survey, mobile money adoption has surged to an unprecedented 76.2%. Integrating with Airtel and MTN places crypto utility directly inside daily workflows for millions of consumers. Accessible via Telegram MiniApps and wallet dApps, AEON's network already powers transactions for over 50 million merchants globally, including McDonald's and UNIQLO. This expansion further scales AEON's footprint across Africa and LATAM. The Real-World Settlement Layer for Agentic Commerce Crucially, this integration builds the foundational settlement infrastructure for the agentic economy. For autonomous AI agents to independently execute actions, these AI agents must interface with local payment rails. By integrating Airtel and MTN, AEON provides the programmable API framework these agents need to transact via digital assets while local merchants receive real-time fiat settlement in Kwacha. As AEON progressively scales into more territories, it constructs a highly distributed, real-world framework. Every localized rail added to the network expands the geographical footprint where AI agents can fluidly conduct business, opening the door to unprecedented machine-to-human economic integration.
