Pay For An API With USDC
An AI agent can pay for an API request with USDC when the service supports an x402 payment flow and the wallet approves it.
Add Zambo to your AIWhat the payment flow looks like
- The client requests a protected resource.
- The server returns payment instructions instead of the resource.
- The wallet reviews and authorizes the payment.
- The client retries the request and inspects the response.
The payment response and the returned work should be checked separately.
What the wallet approves
Before approving, inspect the amount, recipient and network shown in your wallet. Only authorize a request you intended to make, and keep any agent spending policy within a limit you control.
A payment approval and the tool's work result are separate events.
What Zambo records
Each recorded call can be opened as its own receipt. The receipt lets a reader inspect the captured tool name, status, time and output commitment that are available on that record. Failed and rejected calls should remain visible as their actual status.
Use the receipt checker to compare the saved receipt data. That comparison checks the record, not the truth of a claim inside it.
