Support PAYATE
Every PAYATE tool is free, with no sign-up. If the tools save you time, you can send an optional donation to help cover hosting and new tools. Nothing is unlocked — it is simply a thank-you.

PAYATE supports x402, the open protocol for HTTP-native payments.
An agent can donate without an account: request the endpoint, read the 402 Payment Required response,
sign a USDC payment on Base and retry.
GET /donate/x402/1
GET /donate/x402/5
GET /donate/x402/10
GET https://www.payate.com/donate/x402/1
← 402 Payment Required (payment details: USDC on Base, $1.00)
→ retry with the signed payment header
← 200 OK {"thanks": true, "tx": "0x…"}
The endpoint is listed in PAYATE's OpenAPI description. Donations are optional; all tools and the MCP server stay free.
Questions
Do I get anything for donating?
No. Every PAYATE tool is free and stays free. A donation simply helps cover hosting and the time spent building new tools.
Which network and coin should I use?
Send USDC (or ETH) on the Base network only. Sending on another network, or a different token, may not arrive and cannot be refunded.
Can an AI agent donate on its own?
Yes. PAYATE supports x402, the open HTTP payment protocol. An agent calls the donation endpoint, receives an HTTP 402 response with the payment details, signs a USDC payment on Base and retries the request.
Are donations refundable?
On-chain transfers are final, so please double-check the amount and network before sending.
