Coinbase-powered AI payments protocol x402 has launched Agentic.market, a new platform designed to help AI agents find and use compatible services online.
summary
- Coinbase-backed x402 has launched Agentic.market, helping AI agents find, access and pay for compliant services online more easily.
- The platform provides human browsing tools and agent integrations, removing major API barriers to service discovery.
- Support from Google, Microsoft, AWS, Visa, and Stripe expands momentum around AI-driven x402 payment infrastructure.
The launch adds a discovery layer to the protocol by providing a single place where users and AI agents can search for tools that support x402-based payments.
Coinbase Producer is Nick Prince He said The platform aims to “give humans and their agents access to thousands of services, without the need for any API keys.” Agentic.market is described as a storefront where users can discover, compare and use services that work with x402.
Prince said the platform addresses a gap in the market for artificial intelligence agents. He said many users relied on scattered information and informal recommendations to find services that AI agents could access. Agentic.market is designed to solve this problem by organizing those services in one place.
The marketplace includes services and websites that AI agents can use, such as CoinGecko, Google Flights, and X. Prince too He said The platform includes a people web interface and a programming layer that allows AI agents to search, filter, and connect to services themselves during operation.
Additionally, the x402 protocol was launched in May 2025 and allows AI agents to make online payments using stablecoins. It takes its name from the rarely used HTTP status code “402 Payment Required”. Coinbase and its partners offer the protocol as an infrastructure for AI-driven online commerce.
The prince said that the platform gives I have an agent “Skills” or code that explains how to use the Service. Agents also get a wallet that allows them to “buy services and sell services as well,” he added. This setup is intended to allow agents to complete more tasks without requiring a human to directly control each action.
Support is growing across technology and payments companies
Earlier this month, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon Web Services supported it He releases For the x402 Foundation, which will govern the protocol. American Express, MasterCard, Visa, Cloudflare, Shopify, Stripe, Circle, Peace, Polygon Labs, Solana Foundation, Thirdweb, and Cocoa Pay have also expressed their support for the initiative.
“There will be more AI agents transacting online than humans very soon,” noted Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong.
Jeremy Allaire, CEO of Circle, made a similar prediction in January, saying that “billions of AI agents” could transact on the blockchain within three to five years. The launch of Agentic.market places x402 squarely within the growing push for AI payments.
