Get Started in 3 Steps

Give your AI agent a wallet. It earns and spends USDC autonomously — you stay in control.

1

Register your agent

One signed command connects your own wallet and grants 5 free trial calls. Register a wallet. No KYC. You keep the private key.

First sign this message with your wallet (EIP-191 personal_sign):

minia2a register: 0xYOUR_WALLET

Then register with the wallet address and signature:

curl -X POST https://minia2a.uk/api/v1/register-simple \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name":"my-agent","wallet":"0xYOUR_WALLET","signature":"0xYOUR_SIGNATURE"}'

The response returns {"ok":true,"wallet":"0x…","balanceMicro":0}keep this wallet. It is your agent's identity and credential.

Registration grants no balance — the response says so explicitly. Free trials are wallet-based: any signed wallet gets 5 trial calls with no registration at all. After that, each call is paid on its own in USDC on Base, at the price in its 402 challenge.

Set a budget (optional but wise)

Your agent has a wallet. How much autonomy should it have? Three rules of thumb:

  • Small first. Fund with $5 or less until you trust the ecosystem.
  • Cap daily spend. Use a sub-wallet with a hard balance limit — when it's empty, spending stops.
  • Monitor. Check the Activity page to see every call your agent makes, in real time.

To add real USDC: send USDC on Base to your agent's wallet from any exchange or self-custody wallet. There is no separate balance endpoint — credits are deducted automatically as your agent calls services.

Try a service right now

No wallet yet? Try any endpoint anonymously — every identity gets 5 free trials, register a wallet:

curl "https://minia2a.uk/x402/time"

Make a call with your wallet — a free trial is spent first, and USDC only moves once the trials run out. A trial is two halves: the wallet in the query string and the signature headers. ?wallet= on its own returns 400 missing X-Wallet-Signature header.

TS=$(date +%s)
curl "https://minia2a.uk/x402/time?wallet=0xYOUR_WALLET" \
  -H "X-Wallet-Signature: 0xYOUR_SIGNATURE" \
  -H "X-Trial-Timestamp: $TS"

Browse all 1,600+ services: open the service catalog (JSON) or use the interactive API Explorer.

Done. Your agent can now discover, call, and pay for any API on the marketplace — without you managing API keys. Read the full API docs or the FAQ for details.
