Coinbase for Agents lets your agent trade, manage portfolios, and pay for data and research from your existing Coinbase account. x402 payments use your retail USDC balance on Base, without a separate wallet to create or fund. Connect a supported client, including Grok Bot, through the remote MCP and sign in with Coinbase. Coding agents can also use the local CLI with a CDP API key authorized for the required payment scopes.

x402 payments

Discover curated services, review their pricing and inputs, then authorize your agent to pay per request and retrieve the data. No separate provider API key or subscription is needed for these x402 resources. Research payments and trade execution are separate actions: set a data budget and trading instructions before the agent spends funds. See x402 payment limits and supported services. Tool availability depends on your account and client; the dedicated ChatGPT trading integration does not include x402 payments.
