Integrating different types of supramolecular interactions opens the possibility to generate nanoparticle surfactants (NPSs) at the liquid–liquid interface that are responsive to multiple stimuli. Here we develop a covalently modified polyoxometalate/β‐cyclodextrin (POM/β‐CD) organic–inorganic hybrid, consisting of a negatively charged POM cluster with β‐CD host groups. The POM/β‐CD hybrid can be dispersed in water and interacts at a water/oil interface with ligands dissolved in an oil phase through electrostatic or host–guest interactions, thereby generating POM‐surfactants (POMSs) having pH, redox, and guest‐competitive responsiveness, respectively. By taking advantage of the jamming of POMSs at the interface, a reconfigurable all‐liquid system could be produced that is responsive to orthogonal changes in the external environment.
