# Link agent wallet FAQ

## What is Link agent wallet?
Link agent wallet lets you give your agent the ability to spend online while keeping your payment details private. Your agent shops the web, finds items, and proceeds to checkout – then requests payment approval from Link by sending a “spend request." You approve the spend request for the amount of every purchase with biometric authentication (passkey, FaceID, or Touch ID). Link agent wallet is available to individuals in the US.
## How do I connect an agent to my Link Account?
Start from your agent’s interface. You'll be guided to log in or create a Link Account, complete onboarding, and authorize the connection. [Learn more about getting started](https://link.com/agents).
1. From your agent’s interface, you’ll be asked to connect to your Link account.
1. Sign into your Link account or create a new one.
1. Provide your details such as identification information and payment details.
1. Set up a passkey.
1. Authorize the connection between the agent and your Link account.
You're connected and your agent can now request a one-time use card to complete checkout.
## How do I make a purchase?
1. Tell your agent what to buy, like "Buy a large blue shirt from SSense."
1. Your agent finds the item, adds it to cart, goes to checkout, and sends Link a spend request with a maximum spend amount.
   This is only an approval of the proposed spend amount.  You are responsible for all purchases your agent makes, even if they accidentally purchase a different product than was initially surfaced to you.
1. You have 10 minutes to approve or deny the spend request using biometric authentication.
1. Once the spend request is approved, your payment method will have an initial authorization for the requested amount and the agent is given a one-time card to use for purchase.
1. Once the agent completes the purchase, your payment method will be authorized the final purchase cost.
1. Once the transaction is complete, it will appear in your Link Activity within the Link App.

## Can my agent buy any kind of good or service?
Your agent can shop most websites on the open web. However, some sites may block automated purchases using CAPTCHAs or bot detection. Certain categories of goods and services may be restricted.
If an agent-initiated purchase fails at a specific merchant, try a different retailer or try to complete the purchase without your agent.
## What happens if I miss the spend request notification?
The spend request expires after 10 minutes. If it expires, no purchase is made and no charge occurs. You can ask your agent to try again and a new spend request will be sent.
## Can I approve with a password instead of biometric authentication?
No. Biometric authentication is required for approval of the spend request for each purchase. This is a security requirement that ensures only a human in the loop can approve spend requests.
## How do I disconnect my Agent?
1. Open the Link app.
1. Go to Connected Apps.
1. Select the agent
1. Tap **Disconnect**. This will disconnect the agent from your Link Account.
The agent will no longer be able to request new cards, and all existing spend requests or generated virtual cards will expire.
## Can I connect multiple Agents?
Yes, you can connect multiple Agents at one time.
## What's the maximum amount my agent can spend with Link?
You may issue a maximum of $500 per spend request. There is a maximum of $500 per day across all agents connected to your Link Account. The limit resets daily. It can't be increased.
## I see a charge from LINK* on my statement. What is it?
This is a purchase made by your AI agent through Link. The format is `LINKAGNT*[MERCHANT NAME]`or you will just see the merchant name depending on the payment type. You can view full details in your Link transaction history.
## Is my card information safe?
Yes. Your payment details (card, bank account, payment token) are never shared with the agent or merchants.
## What if the agent buys the wrong thing?
Since the shopping decision is made by your agent platform and not by Link, we recommend contacting your agent platform's support team.
You can also initiate a return directly with the merchant. You can review exactly what your agent did in the action log within your Link transaction history.
## What if I was charged more than I approved?
Contact Link Support if you were charged more than the spend request you approved. In certain instances, you may be charged less than the spend request, as small differences may occur due to taxes or shipping calculated at final checkout.
