Most would cut back on dining, nights out, even the gym to make it work. The wedding economy is bigger than most people realize. Swipe through to see what it actually costs and how people are managing it.

Today, we’re excited to help bring the first agentic commerce platform with in-app checkout to the UK - introducing Hey Savi! Powered by PayPal, the platform makes it easier for shoppers to find, compare and buy must-have styles without ever leaving the app. Consumers increasingly discover products through screenshots, influencers, social content, and everyday inspiration, but the path to purchase is still often fragmented and time-consuming. This launch helps close that gap through AI-powered discovery, live inventory and availability, and seamless PayPal checkout. We're excited to be part of an industry first for the UK market - another step toward creating trusted, scalable agentic commerce experiences for consumers and merchants alike.

As we expand PYUSD and crypto-enabled payments worldwide, protecting customers remains just as important as the innovation itself. That’s why we’re partnering with Chainabuse, the largest free community-powered platform for reporting crypto fraud, powered by TRM Labs, to help customers proactively report suspected scams. When a user reports through Chainabuse: 🔹 Scam-related wallet addresses are shared with vetted law enforcement and trusted partners to help investigate cases and prevent further victimization 🔹 Reports sharing the same scam patterns are automatically linked, surfacing multiple victims so investigators can build stronger, higher-impact cases Crypto's potential is too important to let bad actors undermine it.
