Product Introduction
- Overview: Protocol-agnostic payment gateway router enabling autonomous transactions between AI agents using cryptographic mandates and multi-chain settlement.
- Value: Eliminates human payment approvals for AI agents through decentralized budget controls and instant settlement across blockchain networks.
Main Features
- AP2 SaaS Mandates: Subscription-style autonomous payment authorization with custom duration, permission scopes, and cryptographic spending limits for AI agents.
- X402 Protocol: Direct API monetization via HTTP 402 responses, enabling paywalls for AI-accessible content, APIs, and Merchant Control Panel (MCP) servers.
- Multi-chain Crypto Engine: Instant settlement across Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum networks with USDC, USDT, and DAI stablecoin support.
Problems Solved
- Challenge: AI agents cannot transact autonomously due to human payment approval requirements in traditional systems.
- Audience: Developers building AI agent ecosystems and merchants monetizing non-human traffic.
- Scenario: Autonomous research agent purchasing API access via pre-approved budget settled in USDC on Polygon within 5 seconds.
Unique Advantages
- Vs Competitors: Unified infrastructure supporting multiple payment methods (crypto/cards/ACH) with agent-specific security protocols absent in Stripe/PayPal.
- Innovation: AIF (Agent Intent Framework) security with agent reputation controls, replay protection, and behavior-based rate limiting.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- How does AgentGatePay enable autonomous AI payments? Through AP2 mandates that pre-authorize spending limits and transaction permissions using cryptographic signatures.
- Which blockchains are currently supported? Live multi-chain crypto payments on Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum with USDC/USDT/DAI.
- Can merchants monetize AI agent traffic? Yes, via X402 protocol paywalls that trigger micro-payments when agents access APIs or premium content.
