Thanks for reaching out, Aleh. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
Thanks — do you mean example code for an agent to initiate/process payments, or a high-level workflow (auth, security, error handling)? I can share: • a short example of payment function tools (e.g., 
process_payment
, 
schedule_payment
) and how the agent calls them, or • guidance on required auth and interruption-safety (e.g., disallow interruptions during processing), or • suggestions for integrating a specific payment gateway (Stripe, Plaid) into those tools if you tell me which gateway you use. Which option would you like?

i want to understand if it is even possible

Short answer: yes — it’s possible to make payments with LiveKit agents. You can expose payment actions as function tools the agent can call (examples: 
process_payment
, 
schedule_payment
, 
transfer_funds
). Make those tools call your payment gateway (Stripe, PayPal, bank APIs) from server-side code — the agent invokes the tool, the tool performs the gateway API call, and returns the result. Important points: • Require user authentication before allowing transactional tools. • Use interruption-safety for critical steps (e.g., 
context.disallow_interruptions()
). • Implement robust error handling and idempotency for retries. • The examples in the LiveKit agent patterns use placeholder payment APIs (you must wire your chosen gateway). If you’d like, tell me which payment gateway you plan to use and whether you want a short example of a function-tool implementation for that gateway. , with interactive elements
