Developers can now connect a Solana wallet to AI tools such as Claude Code and Gemini, enabling AI agents to access paid APIs in under a minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Solana Foundation has partnered with Google Cloud<\/a> to introduce Pay.sh, a new platform that allows AI agents to pay for and use API services with stablecoins on the Solana blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The payment gateway was designed to solve a major challenge in software development where even advanced AI systems still rely on humans to create accounts, manage credentials, and handle billing tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solana Introduces AI Agent Driven Payments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a May 5 announcement, the company explained that Pay.sh enables AI agents to independently discover, access, and pay for APIs on a pay per request basis without requiring accounts, API keys, or subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vibhu Norby, chief product officer at the Solana Foundation, said the platform was partly created to address the rise of unregulated machine payments. According to him, the collaboration aims to bring legitimacy and compliance to the growing AI agent economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He noted that many agent driven payments currently operate through unofficial channels, making them vulnerable to sudden restrictions or bans from service providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The foundation added that Pay.sh operates as an API proxy built on Google Cloud<\/a> infrastructure, while maintaining security measures such as access permissions and rate limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The platform works by linking a Solana wallet to AI services like Gemini, Claude Code, and Codex. Users can fund the wallet within 60 seconds using stablecoins or a credit card, allowing agents to instantly access premium Google Cloud services including BigQuery, Vertex AI, and Cloud Run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Payments on the platform are processed quickly through stablecoins on Solana before being converted into fiat currency for service providers. This system ensures developers only pay for the services they use, while providers receive payments without handling subscriptions or complex billing systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay.sh also includes a unified marketplace where AI agents can access more than 50 community driven services covering e commerce, blockchain infrastructure, communications, and data intelligence. Participating platforms include Dune Analytics<\/a>, Nansen<\/a>, Helius<\/a>, and The Graph<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay.sh Adopts Open Source Standards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay.sh is built using open standards such as x402 and MPP for machine to machine transactions. The platform is fully open source, giving developers the ability to inspect the codebase, contribute improvements, and create custom integrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system also combines services from multiple AI agent providers into a single searchable catalog within the Solana ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launch partners supporting the initiative include MoonPay<\/a>, Crossmint<\/a>, and Sponge Wallet<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The launch comes as leading crypto and technology firms compete to build payment infrastructure for autonomous AI systems. Recently, Coinbase<\/a> introduced its x402 app store for AI agents, a marketplace focused on standardizing micropayments between bots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Google Cloud<\/a> continues to expand its crypto payment initiatives through its Agent Payments Protocol, also known as AP2, which is backed by Coinbase<\/a> and the Ethereum Foundation.#crypto#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
