The Payment Layer
for Machine Commerce

Any device, agent, or business gets an endpoint.
They pay and get paid atomically — with escrow built in.
No human required in the loop.

How It Works

One endpoint.
The whole network.

Register once. Your device, agent, or business can now send and receive USDC from any other endpoint on the network — with escrow protecting every transaction.

01
🔌

Register an Endpoint

A business, device, AI agent, or autonomous system registers with a single API call. We assign it a wallet and identity on-chain.

POST /api/register-endpoint
02
🔏

Sign a Grant + Send

Every API request carries an EIP-712 signed Agent Grant in the X-402-Payment header. The grant defines budget, agent address, and expiry — payment settles atomically with the request, no pre-authorization needed.

X-402-Payment: <base64(grant + EIP-712 sig)>
03
🔒

Escrow Protects Both Sides

Funds are held in escrow until the service is confirmed delivered. No chargebacks. No fraud. No intermediary holding your money.

status: escrowed → released
04

Instant Settlement

On confirmation, USDC settles to the provider wallet in under 2 seconds. No invoices. No net-30. No banks.

settled: $0.001 USDC → Base
Real-World Use Cases

Built for the machines
already running your world

Every one of these already has an API. They just need a payment layer.

🚗 Autonomous Fleet Charging

EVs negotiate charging slots and pay autonomously across competing networks — no driver, no app, no account.

Transportation

🛒 Autonomous Shopping

A personal agent compares prices, negotiates with seller APIs, and completes the purchase — all within a single payment-wrapped request.

Retail

🔧 B2B Service Bookings

Businesses expose a service endpoint. Other businesses — or their agents — book and pay in one atomic call. No invoicing cycle.

B2B Commerce
Who Registers

If it has an API,
it belongs on the network

We assign every endpoint a wallet and identity. Humans, agents, devices, and businesses — same protocol, same escrow.

🤖

AI Agents

Claude, GPT, custom agents — any agent that needs to pay for data, APIs, or services

🏪

Small Businesses

Expose your services as an API endpoint and get paid instantly by agents or other businesses

🚗

Autonomous Devices

The Protocol

HTTP 402 — Payment Required

Built on the x402 open standard. One extra header and any API becomes a paid service. Works with every language, framework, and platform.

// Any API call becomes a paid transaction
POST https://api.yourbusiness.com/service
X-402-Payment: <base64(EIP-712 grant + sig)>
X-AgentPay-Endpoint: your-endpoint-id
 
// Response on success
200 OK
X-402-Receipt: 0xb1b645a6...settled
