Prava is more than a payment token. It provides the commerce capabilities an AI application needs to turn an intent to buy into a completed order: discovering products, pricing them accurately, and completing a real checkout on the merchant’s site.

The capability pipeline

Two capabilities do the heavy lifting, and they work as a pair:

UCP

Search products, read catalogs, and open quotes across participating Shopify merchants via the Universal Commerce Protocol.

Browser Harness

Prava’s checkout automation confirms the true total from a UCP quote and completes the real merchant checkout.

Who this is for

AI applications and agents that want to find and buy on a user’s behalf rather than only process a payment. These same capabilities power Prava Pay’s agentic shopping (prava shop search → product → quote → checkout); this section explains what’s behind those commands.
Whichever surface you use, the card is always collected on Prava’s secure surface and turned into a one-time, merchant-scoped credential; the AI application never handles a raw card.

How the pieces fit

1

Discover with UCP

Search across participating Shopify merchants and read product/variant details. See UCP.
2

Quote the real price

UCP opens a checkout for an initial price; the Browser Harness reconciles it against the live checkout so the amount is correct before anyone commits.
3

Complete checkout

The Browser Harness fills the checkout, confirms the final total, pays with the one-time token, and returns a verifiable order.
