A resource is requested
An AI agent or application requests an API, dataset, file or digital service.
x402 payment infrastructure
x402 Payments for AI Agents and Applications
Enable AI agents, APIs and software applications to make and receive automated stablecoin payments directly over HTTP.
Simple by design
How x402 payments work
Payment terms are returned
The server responds with 402 Payment Required, including the amount and payment instructions.
The client authorises payment
The client submits the required stablecoin payment payload.
Ivorypay verifies and settles
Ivorypay confirms the payment meets the required terms and coordinates settlement onchain.
Access is granted
Once payment is confirmed, the requested resource is delivered automatically.
As an x402 facilitator, Ivorypay provides the verification and settlement layer, reducing the need for businesses to build direct blockchain connectivity and payment-validation infrastructure.
