PERPLEXITY
Miss out on Comet now, and you’ll regret it later
PayPal is giving U.S. customers early access to Perplexity’s new AI-powered browser, Comet, along with a free 12-month subscription to Perplexity Pro (usually $200 a year).
The offer is available through the PayPal and Venmo apps, with international rollout expected later this month.
Launched in July, Comet comes with an integrated AI assistant, instant product comparisons, AI-generated search summaries, and seamless checkouts using PayPal or Venmo.
TL;DR
PayPal and Venmo users get early Comet access and a free year of Perplexity Pro.
The new subscriptions hub makes managing recurring payments easier.
Perplexity gains a stronger position in the growing AI browser race.
Fast-pass to Comet
The move builds on the companies’ earlier partnership and also pushes PayPal’s new subscriptions hub, which lets users manage all recurring payments in one place.
For Perplexity, this could mean a significant visibility boost in an AI browser market currently led by Chrome, while PayPal hopes to pull more users into its apps through exclusive perks.
Suddenly, everyone’s a Perplexity Pro girlie.
