Per-use charging with instant settlement
Developers integrate payment rails into their applications using open standards like x402 and MPP. Users hold stablecoins in embedded wallets. Each API call, content access, or resource usage triggers a micropayment that settles instantly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can't find your answer?
Transaction costs under $0.001 make even fraction-of-a-cent payments economically viable. There is no minimum transaction size.
Users hold stablecoin balances in embedded wallets and authorize small deductions per use. Platforms can also aggregate usage and settle periodically.
Yes. The infrastructure supports high throughput with sub-second finality, specifically designed for high-volume, low-value transaction flows.
Authorization can be handled through pre-approved spending limits, streaming payment channels, or background micro-deductions. Users do not approve each individual transaction.
Pay-per-use APIs, content monetization (articles, streaming, books), digital services with on-demand features, gaming microtransactions, and machine-to-machine payments for IoT and AI systems.
Yes. Openfort supports x402 — the HTTP-native '402 Payment Required' standard from Coinbase — along with the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP), Google's Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), and the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP). This lets you gate APIs, content, and machine-to-machine payments behind sub-cent, pay-per-request micropayments.
