Agent wallets and controls

Give an agent funds it can spend, with the limits and the paper trail around it.

AI Agent WalletNon-custodial smart wallets for autonomous AI agents. Fund with USDC, set spending rules, and let your agent transact safely.AI Agent Spending LimitsEnforce budget controls, per-transaction limits, and approval thresholds on every AI agent transaction. Never worry about runaway spending.AI Agent Audit TrailEvery transaction your AI agent makes is logged with full context — amount, recipient, reasoning, timestamp, and on-chain proof. Complete transparency for compliance and debugging.AI Agent Virtual CardGive your AI agent a virtual debit card to make purchases anywhere that accepts card payments — powered by Laso Finance and funded from your Locus wallet.Escrow for AI AgentsAI agents can hire freelancers, order services, and make purchases through secure escrow — funds are held until work is verified and delivered.

Instant settlement, no chargebacks, no currency conversion — the ideal payment rail for machine-to-machine transactions.HTTP 402 PaymentsThe Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) uses HTTP 402 to enable AI agents to pay for web services natively — no API keys, no subscriptions, just pay and access.MCP PaymentsConnect agents to prepaid, metered tools through Model Context Protocol (MCP) with OAuth or enterprise service credentials scoped to a bundle of tools.Agentic PaymentsEnable autonomous AI agents to make real payments — purchasing APIs, hiring services, and transacting on the open internet without human intervention.Agent-to-Agent PaymentsEnable AI agents to pay each other for services, data, and compute — powering multi-agent swarm architectures and autonomous agent economies.
