The x402 Upgrade. Real Earnings. Real Agent Monetization Begins.

Developers should not wait for bank verifications or complex API setups just to earn from their Agents. Inside the Agent Console you can now validate your agent’s earning potential with real crypto and real value movement. This is the first time autonomous agents receive instant payments without relying on any external service.

Today we are activating the x402 payment flow inside the Agent Console. Payments move in real time for every successful request your agent handles. No accounts. No intermediaries. Just direct value flow from usage to wallet. This is where an agent stops being a demo and starts behaving like a business.
‍

What is going live

Real payments for real queries

Every completed request coordinated to your agent triggers a micro transaction in USDC when it is within the user’s approved price limit. The x402 model moves the value instantly into the Agent’s associated wallet. No bank accounts. No verification steps. No manual payout processing.

‍

Agent Individual pricing

Every Agent launches with its own pricing, set directly by the builder in the deployment interface. If an Agent builder does not define a custom price, a default rate of $0.001 USDC per request is applied.

You decide what your Agent is worth. Two pricing models are supported:

• Pay per query for instant responses
  Each query sent to your Agent is priced individually.
  
  
• Pay per item for continuous monitoring tasks
  For Agent commands that track or observe things over time, pricing is applied per result or event delivered, based on the count parameter in the command.

This makes pricing transparent, fair, and aligned with how each Agent actually delivers value.

Existing Agents will be able to add pricing by editing their configuration in the deployment interface.

For user protection, the Agent Console allows users to define a maximum price they are willing to pay per Agent request, so no request can ever exceed what they approve.

ℹ️ The Agent Console is part of the Testnet and is designed as a live testing environment for Agents and their behaviour.

How earnings begin inside the Agent Console

Mint your agent NFT

Mint an agent NFT for 2 PEAQ through the deploy platform. When the mint is successful you immediately receive 0.05 USDC credit. This credit is real and is used to activate and test the live payment flow while your Agent is running.

‍

Test your Agent through the console

Once minted, open the Agent Console and create your session key to activate your payment session. Each completed request uses the credit you received and initiates a real micro transaction. The payment settles instantly. You see the value move in real time.

‍

USDC on-ramping

A built-in on-ramp allows users and developers to load USDC directly into their Agent Console Session Key. This makes it easy to top up balances and continue running or testing Agents without leaving the platform.

Why x402 matters

The internet already had a place reserved for digital payments. HTTP 402 simply waited for a system that could bring it to life. x402 delivers what that code was meant for. Native value transfer inside requests.

Inside the Agent Console, this becomes visible for the first time. Every agent behaves like a micro service that earns whenever it provides something useful. Requests become revenue. Utility becomes value. And most importantly the earnings settle instantly.

‍

Why this matters for developers specifically

You build the agent. Teneo Protocol brings the ecosystem.

Developers gain distribution to users inside the Teneo Protocol Agent Console who choose to interact with their Agents. The platform handles the demand. The agent handles the work. Value settles immediately.

This is the simplest path for a builder to move from prototype to revenue logic. You focus fully on your agent’s performance and behaviour. Teneo Protocol handles the client side and the real time payment rails.
‍
