AI agents need to pay and get paid, but traditional payment infrastructure wasn’t built for that. Three problems stand in the way:
  • Agents can’t spend autonomously - no way to delegate a real payment method with controlled limits
  • Merchants can’t accept agentic payments - no metering, no per-request settlement, no programmatic access control
  • Everyone’s locked to one provider - rigid integrations that don’t work across frameworks or payment processors
Nevermined solves all three. Put a payment gate in front of any API, charge per request, and settle automatically. You handle the AI, we handle the rest.

How It Works

Nevermined Payment Flow
1

Register your API

Any HTTP endpoint your agent exposes. Nevermined gates access at the request level - if a caller isn’t entitled, they get a 402 before your code even runs.
2

Create a payment plan

  • Payment method - Fiat (cards via NVM Pay) or crypto (USDC)
  • Pricing model - Fixed per call, or dynamic (builder-defined or cost+margin)
  • Plan type - Prepaid (users buy a plan upfront) or pay-as-you-go (charge per request)
3

Validate, deliver, settle

Entitled? Deliver and settle. Not entitled? Return 402 Payment Required.
Builders register API endpoints, set pricing per call, and receive payouts. Add a few lines of validation to your server. Users purchase a plan (fiat or crypto) or go pay-as-you-go. No human in the loop.

Agent Card Payments

Let agents pay with real cards via card delegation

Static Assets

Gate datasets, models, and downloadable resources

​
What You Can Monetize

Deploy AI customer service agents with per-ticket billing, resolution-based pricing, or monthly support packages.
AI sales assistants that qualify leads and schedule meetings with performance-based pricing.
Conversational AI with per-message billing, token packages, or subscription tiers.
AI-powered code reviews, security scans, and optimization with per-repo or subscription pricing.
Vision services with dynamic pricing based on resolution, complexity, or analysis depth.
AI translation and localization with pricing based on word count or language complexity.
Analytics services with pricing based on dataset size and analysis complexity.

Integration Options

Nevermined is framework-agnostic. It works with LangChain, CrewAI, Strands, OpenAI Agents, or plain HTTP.
  • Code-first - TypeScript and Python SDKs, REST API, and CLI for full programmatic control
  • Nevermined Pay - Card enrollment, spending mandates, and delegation management

​
Merchant Onboarding

Use the Nevermined App for reporting, analytics, and plan management. To receive fiat payouts, connect a Stripe Connect account there. Stablecoin payouts settle directly to your wallet.
