Common questions

Is X402 API safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (3.0.0) reached the registry 7 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

x402

x402 is an open standard for internet native payments. It aims to support all networks (both crypto & fiat) and forms of value (stablecoins, tokens, fiat).

app.use(

paymentMiddleware( { "GET /weather": { accepts: [...], // As many networks / schemes as you want to support description: "Weather data", // what your endpoint does }, }, ), ); // That's it! See examples/ for full details

Installation

Typescript
# All available reference sdks

npm install @x402/core @x402/evm @x402/svm @x402/axios @x402/fetch @x402/express @x402/hono @x402/next @x402/paywall @x402/extensions

Minimal Fetch client

npm install @x402/core @x402/evm @x402/svm @x402/fetch

Minimal express Server

npm install @x402/core @x402/evm @x402/svm @x402/express

Python
pip install x402
Go
go get github.com/x402-foundation/x402/go

Principles

  • Open standard: x402 is an open standard, freely accessible and usable by anyone. It will never force reliance on a single party.
  • HTTP / Transport Native: x402 is meant to seamlessly complement existing data transportation. It should whenever possible not mandate additional requests outside the scope of a typical client / server flow.
  • Network, token, and currency agnostic: we welcome contributions that add support for new networks (both crypto and fiat), signing standards, or schemes, so long as they meet our acceptance criteria laid out in CONTRIBUTING.md. x402 may extend support to fiat based networks, but will never deprioritize onchain payments in favor of fiat payments.
  • Backwards Compatible: x402 will not deprecate support for any existing networks unless such removal is deemed necessary for the security of the standard. Whenever possible, x402 will aim for backwards compatibility for non-major version changes.
  • Trust minimizing: all payment schemes must not allow for the facilitator or resource server to move funds, other than in accordance with client intentions
  • Easy to use: It is the goal of the x402 community to improve ease of use relative to other forms of payment on the Internet. This means abstracting as many details of crypto as possible away from the client and resource server, and into the facilitator. This means the client/server should not need to think about gas, rpc, etc.

Ecosystem

The x402 ecosystem is growing! Check out our ecosystem page to see projects building with x402, including:

  • Client-side integrations
  • Services and endpoints
  • Ecosystem infrastructure and tooling
  • Learning and community resources

Want to add your project to the ecosystem? See our demo site README for detailed instructions on how to submit your project.

Roadmap: see ROADMAP.md

Documentation: see docs/ for the GitBook documentation source

Terms:

  • resource: Something on the internet. This could be a webpage, file server, RPC service, API, any resource on the internet that accepts HTTP / HTTPS requests.
  • client: An entity wanting to pay for a resource.
  • facilitator: A server that facilitates verification and execution of payments for one or many networks.
  • resource server: An HTTP server that provides an API or other resource for a client.

Technical Goals:

  • Permissionless and secure for clients, servers, and facilitators
  • Minimal friction to adopt for both client and resource servers
  • Minimal integration for the resource server and client (1 line for the server, 1 function for the client)
  • Ability to trade off speed of response for guarantee of payment
  • Extensible to different payment flows and networks

Specification

See specs/ for full documentation of the x402 standard/

Typical x402 flow

x402 payments typically adhere to the following flow, but servers have a lot of flexibility. See advanced folders in examples/.

The following outlines the flow of a payment using the x402 protocol. Note that steps (1) and (2) are optional if the client already knows the payment details accepted for a resource.

  1. Client makes an HTTP request to a resource server.
  1. Resource server responds with a 402 Payment Required status and a PaymentRequired b64 object return as a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header.
  1. Client selects one of the PaymentRequirements returned by the server response and creates a PaymentPayload based on the scheme & network of the PaymentRequirements they have selected.
  1. Client sends the HTTP request with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header containing the PaymentPayload to the resource server.
  1. Resource server verifies the PaymentPayload is valid either via local verification or by POSTing the PaymentPayload and PaymentRequirements to the /verify endpoint of a facilitator.
  1. Facilitator performs verification of the object based on the scheme and network of the PaymentPayload and returns a Verification Response.
  1. If the Verification Response is valid, the resource server performs the work to fulfill the request. If the Verification Response is invalid, the resource server returns a 402 Payment Required status and a Payment Required Response JSON object in the response body.
  1. Resource server either settles the payment by interacting with a blockchain directly, or by POSTing the Payment Payload and Payment PaymentRequirements to the /settle endpoint of a facilitator server.
  1. Facilitator server submits the payment to the blockchain based on the scheme and network of the Payment Payload.
  1. Facilitator server waits for the payment to be confirmed on the blockchain.
  1. Facilitator server returns a Payment Execution Response to the resource server.
  1. Resource server returns a 200 OK response to the Client with the resource they requested as the body of the HTTP response, and a PAYMENT-RESPONSE header containing the Settlement Response as Base64 encoded JSON if the payment was executed successfully.
Schemes

A scheme is a logical way of moving money.

Blockchains allow for a large number of flexible ways to move money. To help facilitate an expanding number of payment use cases, the x402 protocol is extensible to different ways of settling payments via its scheme field.

Each payment scheme may have different operational functionality depending on what actions are necessary to fulfill the payment. For example exact, the first scheme shipping as part of the protocol, would have different behavior than upto. exact transfers a specific amount (ex: pay $1 to read an article), while a theoretical upto would transfer up to an amount, based on the resources consumed during a request (ex: generating tokens from an LLM).

See specs/schemes for more details on schemes, and see specs/schemes/exact/scheme_exact_evm.md to see the first proposed scheme for exact payment on EVM chains.

Schemes vs Networks

Because a scheme is a logical way of moving money, the way a scheme is implemented can be different for different blockchains. (ex: the way you need to implement exact on Ethereum is very different from the way you need to implement exact on Solana).

Clients and facilitators must explicitly support different (scheme, network) pairs in order to be able to create proper payloads and verify / settle payments.
