Amazon just killed its Rufus chatbot

Amazon just killed its Rufus chatbot.

In its place: Alexa for Shopping — an AI assistant that answers questions, makes recommendations, and completes purchases on your behalf using your personal history and preferences.

Here is the headline nobody is writing:

The checkout button is losing its place in the buying process.

Purchases are now being initiated inside conversations with AI — before the customer ever visits your website, sees your checkout page, or makes a conscious decision to buy.

Amazon. Google. OpenAI. All racing to own the moment of purchase.

And every transaction their AI initiates?

Still hitting the merchant with a processing fee on the other end.

The buying experience is being reinvented.

The fee structure is not.

At Compassion Processing, we eliminate that merchant fee entirely — no matter where, how, or by whom the purchase was initiated.

AI assistant. Voice command. In-store tap. Online checkout.

You keep 100% of every sale. Our profits go to vetted 501(c)(3) charities.

The future of commerce is conversational. Your fees don't have to be part of the conversation.
