x402 is an open payment protocol built on HTTP 402. A client requests a resource, the server returns payment requirements, the client pays on-chain, and the server delivers. No shared secrets, no OAuth — just HTTP and stablecoins. Finance District participates in x402 from both sides:
  • Agent Wallet acts as the buyer — signing ERC-3009 transferWithAuthorization calls inside a secure enclave and submitting the signed payment to the merchant.
  • Prism acts as the facilitator — middleware that enforces payment on merchant endpoints, verifies on-chain transfers via Spectrum, and settles to the merchant’s wallet.
