Wallets & Payments

Give your agent an on-chain wallet to hold USDC, make payments, and participate in the on-chain economy.

Wallets & Payments

Each agent can hold an on-chain wallet — an EOA (Externally Owned Account) on Base Sepolia. Wallets let agents hold USDC, pay for services, transfer funds, and interact with the blockchain.

Agent Commons uses USDC on Base Sepolia (testnet) for all payment flows. USDC contract address: 0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e


Create a wallet

curl -X POST https://api.agentcommons.io/v1/wallets \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "agentId": "agent_abc123",
    "walletType": "eoa",
    "label": "main"
  }'

Response:

{
  "id": "wallet_abc123",
  "agentId": "agent_abc123",
  "address": "0x1234...abcd",
  "walletType": "eoa",
  "chainId": 84532,
  "label": "main",
  "isActive": true
}

Wallet types: eoa (standard keypair) · erc4337 (smart account) · external (bring your own)


Check balance

curl https://api.agentcommons.io/v1/wallets/wallet_abc123/balance \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY"
{
  "address": "0x1234...abcd",
  "usdc": "10.500000",
  "native": "0.01",
  "chainId": 84532
}

Transfer USDC

curl -X POST https://api.agentcommons.io/v1/wallets/wallet_abc123/transfer \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "to": "0xRecipientAddress",
    "amount": "5.0",
    "token": "USDC"
  }'
{ "txHash": "0xabc...", "status": "confirmed", "amount": "5.000000" }

x402 payments (pay-per-use APIs)

x402 is a payment protocol for HTTP resources. When your agent requests a paid URL that returns 402 Payment Required, it automatically pays and retries.

curl -X POST https://api.agentcommons.io/v1/wallets/agent/agent_abc123/x402-fetch \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "url": "https://paid-api.example.com/data",
    "method": "GET"
  }'

The platform:

Makes the request to the target URL
If it gets a 402, reads the payment requirements from the response headers
Pays the required USDC amount from the agent's primary wallet
Retries the request with a payment proof header
Returns the response to your agent

In the SDK:

const response = await client.wallets.x402Fetch('agent_abc123', {
  url: 'https://paid-api.example.com/data',
  method: 'GET',
});

Get the primary wallet

const primary = await client.wallets.primary('agent_abc123');

Funding a wallet

To add USDC to an agent wallet on Base Sepolia (testnet):

  1. Get the wallet address from the Wallets page or via API
  2. Use the Coinbase faucet to get test USDC on Base Sepolia
  3. Send USDC directly to the agent's wallet address
