x402

x402 is an open payment protocol that uses the HTTP 402 status code to enable per-request USDC payments on the web. Any website or API can require a small USDC payment before serving content. The ecosystem includes SDKs for building x402 clients and servers, infrastructure providers that handle payment verification, and integrations with major platforms. Most x402 activity runs on Base.
