Question 1

What is x402 payment protocol?

Accepted Answer

x402 is a payment protocol built by Stripe and Coinbase that enables AI agents to pay for API requests directly with cryptocurrency. It allows seamless machine-to-machine payments without API keys or accounts.

Question 2

How does a business get paid by AI with Apiosk?

Accepted Answer

AI agents pay the seller in dollar stablecoins over x402, on the rail they already use. The payments land in the seller's non-custodial vault and bundle together until they are worth converting. At an amount the seller sets, a rule they signed converts the stablecoins to euros, which settle to the seller's bank and reconcile in the books. The seller connects once and it runs on its own.

Question 3

What is an x402 payment gateway?

Accepted Answer

An x402 payment gateway like Apiosk processes HTTP 402 payment flows from AI agents and software systems. It handles payment verification, spend controls, execution, settlement, and logs.

Question 4

How do I integrate Apiosk?

Accepted Answer

Use the direct gateway API for maximum control, the JavaScript SDK for application code, the remote MCP endpoint for chat-native agent clients, or the gateway skill for coding-agent runtimes.
