Google Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP)

The Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) is an open standard (open source) developed by Google that aims to unify digital commerce across platforms and AI interfaces. It serves as a technical "language" enabling seamless communication between online retailers, payment providers, and AI agents. Through UCP, Google responds to the shift toward "Agentic Commerce". Retailers implementing this protocol increase their visibility in AI-powered search environments.
