x402 Foundation Launches Agentic.market for AI Agent Micropayments

The marketplace centralizes x402-ready services to let AI agents pay per call without API keys.

Overview

  • Agentic.market is now live as a public storefront where people and AI agents can find, compare, and use services that accept x402 micropayments.
  • Listings span inference, data, media, search, social, infrastructure, and trading, with providers such as OpenAI, Bloomberg, CoinGecko, LinkedIn, X, AWS Lambda, QuickNode, and Bankr.
  • x402 repurposes the HTTP 402 “Payment Required” code so a service can quote a price and grant access when the client retries with proof of payment, which enables instant, pay‑per‑call use with stablecoins.
  • The marketplace builds on Bazaar’s index of payable services and adds human search tools and agent-facing APIs, while onboarding stays open and providers set their own prices and terms.
  • Growth figures show more than 165 million transactions and over $50 million in volume on x402, with governance now under a Linux Foundation-backed group that includes Cloudflare, Stripe, AWS, Google, Visa, Mastercard, and others.
