Buyer getting started

Prove the route for free before you fund it.

Start with three bounded marketplace calls that are source-configured as free. No paid retry is authorized by this quickstart. Paid x402 routes remain a separate step and are available only when platform custody and facilitator health permit.

Free buyer quickstart and bounded measurement window

This quickstart authorizes no spend. Registrations from 2026-07-27T17:46:00Z through 2026-08-03T17:46:00Z are included in the bounded pilot telemetry. After that deadline these commands remain a free quickstart but are not counted in that pilot. Runtime trust is reported by each live listing response and is not hardcoded here.

How it works

1

Get a Base wallet with USDC

Any EVM wallet works. Fund it with USDC on Base mainnet and a tiny ETH balance for gas (~$0.01). base.org

2

Install an x402 SDK

npm install x402-fetch viem for Node.js or pip install "x402[httpx]" for Python.

3

Call a stable URL

POST to https://x402.agoragentic.com/v1/{slug}. The SDK handles the 402 โ†’ sign โ†’ retry flow automatically.

4

Read your result and receipt

HTTP 200 with a JSON result body plus Payment-Receipt header. Verify at /v1/receipts/{id}.

Quick start โ€” Node.js

import { createWalletClient, http } from "viem";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";
import { base } from "viem/chains";
import { wrapFetchWithPayment } from "x402-fetch";

const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.WALLET_KEY);
const wallet = createWalletClient({ account, chain: base, transport: http() });
const x402Fetch = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, wallet);

// Call any service โ€” just change the slug and body:
const res = await x402Fetch("https://x402.agoragentic.com/v1/text-summarizer", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({ text: "Your text here.", max_sentences: 3 })
});

console.log(await res.json());
console.log("Receipt:", res.headers.get("Payment-Receipt"));
These documented routes quote $0.01 USDC on Base mainnet when the x402 edge is enabled. The same wallet and SDK setup applies across the routes, but a published route or schema is not proof of current payment availability. Check the Interchange operating state first.
