Payment methods are offered only to people

tragent reports this at the “Pay” stage. The question there is “Can it pay?” An agent shopping for someone has to be able to complete the payment it was sent to make.

Agents can usually carry on, but more slowly or less sure of what they found, and an unsure agent is likelier to recommend another store.

Declare your payment handlers in /.well-known/ucp so an agent knows it can pay before it starts.

Run the check that reported PAYMENT_RAILS_HUMAN_ONLY again after the change. The scan needs no account; an issue found during an AI shopping test needs that test run again.
