x402 Payment Protocol

x402 is an open, internet-native payment standard built around the HTTP 402 Payment Required status code. It enables programmatic payments between clients and servers without accounts, sessions, or credential management.

Key Benefits:

• Zero protocol fees (only blockchain network fees)
• Zero friction (no accounts or KYC required)
• Instant settlement via stablecoins
• Works with AI agents and automated systems

Documentation: https://docs.x402.org | GitHub: https://github.com/coinbase/x402

How x402 Works

1. Client requests a resource from a server
2. Server responds with 402 Payment Required + payment instructions
3. Client signs and submits a payment payload
4. Server verifies payment, optionally via a facilitator
5. Server returns the requested resource

Paywall UI (Server Middleware)

The @x402/paywall package provides a pre-built paywall UI that displays when users hit a 402 Payment Required response. It handles wallet connection (MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom, etc.), USDC balance checking, and payment submission.

Important: This package is designed for server-side use only. It generates a complete, self-contained HTML page (~1.9MB) with embedded React, wagmi, and wallet adapters that the server returns when a 402 response is triggered. It is not a standalone React component library and cannot be imported into an existing React application.

Looking for React components instead?

• For Solana React apps: Use @payai/x402-solana-react - drop-in paywall components with themes
• For custom EVM/Solana React: Build with wagmi + viem (EVM) or @solana/wallet-adapter-react (Solana)
• Multi-chain SDKs: @dexterai/x402, x402-solana

See the Custom React Frontend Integration section below for details.

  .build();

Solana Only

import { createPaywall } from "@x402/paywall";
import { svmPaywall } from "@x402/paywall/svm";

const paywall = createPaywall()
  .withNetwork(svmPaywall)
  .withConfig({
    appName: "My Solana App",
    testnet: true,
  })
  .build();

Multi-Network

import { createPaywall } from "@x402/paywall";
import { evmPaywall } from "@x402/paywall/evm";
import { svmPaywall } from "@x402/paywall/svm";

const paywall = createPaywall()
  .withNetwork(evmPaywall)  // First-match priority
  .withNetwork(svmPaywall)  // Fallback option
  .withConfig({
    appName: "Multi-chain App",
    testnet: true,
  })
  .build();

Configuration Options

interface PaywallConfig {
  appName?: string;    // App name shown in wallet connection
  appLogo?: string;    // App logo URL
  currentUrl?: string; // URL of protected resource
  testnet?: boolean;   // Use testnet (default: true)
}

Integration with Express

import express from "express";
import { paymentMiddleware, x402ResourceServer } from "@x402/express";
import { ExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm/exact/server";
import { HTTPFacilitatorClient } from "@x402/core/server";
import { createPaywall } from "@x402/paywall";
import { evmPaywall } from "@x402/paywall/evm";

const app = express();

const facilitatorClient = new HTTPFacilitatorClient({ url: "https://x402.org/facilitator" });

const paywall = createPaywall()
  .withNetwork(evmPaywall)
  .withConfig({ appName: "My API", testnet: true })
  .build();

app.use(
  paymentMiddleware(
    {
      "GET /premium": {
        accepts: [{ scheme: "exact", price: "$0.01", network: "eip155:84532", payTo: "0x..." }],
        description: "Premium content",
        mimeType: "application/json",
      },
    },
    new x402ResourceServer(facilitatorClient).register("eip155:84532", new ExactEvmScheme()),
    undefined,  // paywallConfig (using custom paywall instead)
    paywall,    // custom paywall provider
  ),
);

app.get("/premium", (req, res) => res.json({ content: "Premium data" }));
app.listen(4021);

Auto-Detection (Simple Usage)

If you pass a paywallConfig object instead of a custom paywall, the middleware will automatically use @x402/paywall if installed:

app.use(
  paymentMiddleware(
    routes,
    server,
    { appName: "My App", testnet: true },  // paywallConfig - auto-detects @x402/paywall
  ),
);

How First-Match Selection Works

When the server returns multiple payment options, the paywall selects the first one that has a registered handler:

// Server returns:
{ "accepts": [
  { "network": "solana:5eykt...", ... },  // First option
  { "network": "eip155:8453", ... }       // Second option
]}

// If both handlers registered, Solana is selected (first in accepts)
const paywall = createPaywall()
  .withNetwork(evmPaywall)
  .withNetwork(svmPaywall)
  .build();

Pricing Configuration

Simple USD Pricing

{ scheme: "exact", price: "$0.001", network: "eip155:84532", payTo: evmAddress }

Custom Token Amount (ERC-20)

{
  scheme: "exact",
  price: {
    amount: "10000",  // atomic units ($0.01 USDC = 10000 because USDC has 6 decimals)
    asset: "0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e",  // USDC on Base Sepolia
    extra: { name: "USDC", version: "2" }  // EIP-712 params
  },
  network: "eip155:84532",
  payTo: evmAddress
}

Testing

For testing, use:

• Network: eip155:84532 (Base Sepolia) or solana:EtWTRABZaYq6iMfeYKouRu166VU2xqa1 (Solana Devnet)
• Facilitator: https://x402.org/facilitator (testnet only)
• Faucets: Get testnet USDC from Base Sepolia faucet

For production, switch to mainnet networks and a production facilitator.
