Musk: Screenshotting your credit card for the Grok Bot is the easiest way to pay
Musk commented on a user's post about having the Grok Bot compare prices and place an order for a ball, saying that screenshotting a credit card is the simplest payment method unless you're willing to fill in secure vault data; he also joked that handing your credit card to a stranger at a restaurant is a bit foolish, but handing it to the Grok Bot is not.

So I sent my Grok Bot one text: “Order me the DribbleUp silent ball, best price, shipped to my home.” It compared prices, found the best deal, checked out with my card, and placed the order - $32.91 total w/ free shipping, arriving this Thursday. I didn’t open a shopping app or fill out a single form. I just wanted a quieter way for my son to work on his game, and my bot handled the shopping. Having your own AI bot take care of everyday things like this is pretty freakin cool. His ball is arriving soon and all I needed to do is send a text.

This works well. Screenshot of credit card is the easiest way, unless you want to fill out the secure vault data.
Seems a bit silly to hand your credit card to people you don’t know at a restaurant, but not to Grok Bot.
