x402 machine payments, installed on your endpoint by the team that runs one of the few fully spec-correct facilitators on the internet. You never read the spec.
One flat setup fee. One small monthly retainer. No per-transaction fee below $1,000/month settled.
$500 one route, delivered in 48 hours
.well-known/x402.json discovery file, OpenAPI price tags$99 per month, cancel anytime
Rather run your own rail? Self-host setup available — same $500, we hand you the deploy and a runbook.
$50–200 /mo — hosted facilitator
Most teams that price a self-hosted facilitator come back to this option.
One line about what your API does and the route you want paid. Have an OpenAPI file? Great. Don't? We'll write the manifest for you.
Payment gate, discovery wiring, identity checks, test script. You get a demo of a real agent paying your endpoint before you pay us.
USDC settles straight to your wallet — we never custody your funds. The retainer keeps the rail alive as the spec evolves.
Our facilitator is live right now. Verify it yourself before you email us:
curl -s https://x402-agent-pay.com/facilitator/supported → {"chainId":"8453","maxUnitsRequired":...,"supports":["exact","base"]} curl -s -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{}' \ https://x402-agent-pay.com/facilitator/verify → {"fault":"payer","invalidReason":"MALFORMED_PAYLOAD",...} ← a real, working verifier answers
We also audited 747 x402 directory hosts: most endpoints are dead or mis-wired. Yours will be in the minority that agents can actually pay.
An open protocol where an AI agent pays your API over plain HTTP: your endpoint answers with a 402 payment challenge, the agent pays USDC on Base L2, and the call goes through. It is the checkout lane Coinbase built for machines.
Never. Settlement goes on-chain straight to your wallet. Our facilitator verifies and settles; the money never touches an account of ours.
Base L2 (eip155:8453), USDC, settled through Coinbase CDP. More networks as the spec adopts them.
No. x402 is three HTTP concerns: the 402 response, payment verification, and settlement. We integrate with whatever serves your route — Flask, Go, Rust, serverless, nginx in front of anything.
That's what the retainer is for. Protocol updates get applied to your integration, not left to rot — which is exactly what happened to the 80% of endpoints that broke.
Sure — if you enjoy EIP-712 signature recovery, proxy header limits, and discovery manifests. Our setup fee is cheaper than the week you'd spend.
