Which payment networks support the x402 protocol?
Payment networks support x402 through facilitators, and the lists differ by facilitator. ScriptMasterLabs re-probed the primary sources on October 19, 2026: Coinbase's CDP Facilitator documents six mainnets, PayAI lists eight, and the x402.org default serves testnets only — while ScriptMasterLabs' own services settle live on Base.
The direct answer: A payment network "supports" x402 where a facilitator will verify and settle on it — there is no single protocol-wide list, and the facilitators disagree. Coinbase's CDP Facilitator documents Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World and Solana mainnets. PayAI lists Base, Avalanche, Sei, Polygon, X Layer, SKALE Base, Arbitrum and Solana. Circle's Facilitator Service settles USDC on Arc, Base and Polygon PoS. The x402.org default facilitator — the one the packages ship with — serves testnets only.
The answer, facilitator by facilitator (October 19, 2026)
| Facilitator | Source | Mainnets it will settle on | Testnets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coinbase CDP Facilitator | Coinbase Developer Documentation, supported-networks table (docs page updated October 14, 2026; read October 19, 2026) | Base (eip155:8453), Polygon (eip155:137), Arbitrum (eip155:42161), Monad (eip155:143), World (eip155:480), Solana (solana:5eykt4UsFv8P8NJdTREpY1vzqKqZKvdp) — schemes exact, upto, batch-settlement on EVM; exact and upto on Solana | Base Sepolia (eip155:84532), World Sepolia (eip155:4801), Solana Devnet |
| PayAI | Live probe, GET https://facilitator.payai.network/supported — 200, 36 settlement kinds, October 19, 2026 | v1 exact on 8 named mainnets — Base, Avalanche, Sei, Polygon, X Layer, SKALE Base, Arbitrum, Solana; v2 exact in CAIP-2 form for the same families (eip155:8453, eip155:43114, eip155:1329, eip155:137, eip155:196, eip155:1187947933, eip155:42161, Solana mainnet) | The matching testnet for each family |
| Circle Facilitator Service | Circle / Arc launch announcement, September 19, 2026 (production settle requires a Circle API key, so no public /supported probe exists) | USDC settlement on Arc (eip155:5042), Base (eip155:8453) and Polygon PoS (eip155:137) | Arc testnet (keyless trial) |
| x402.org (the package default) | Live probe, GET https://x402.org/facilitator/supported — 200, 11 settlement kinds, October 19, 2026 | None. No mainnet of any kind. | v2 exact on 7 networks: Base Sepolia (eip155:84532), Solana Devnet, Algorand Testnet, Aptos Testnet (aptos:2), Stellar Testnet, Hedera Testnet, and an xrpl:1 entry; upto and batch-settlement only on Base Sepolia |
Two details flat lists miss. First, the xrpl:1 entry on the x402.org facilitator carries no XRPL signer in the same response — the signers map lists eip155:*, solana:*, algorand:*, aptos:* and stellar:* keys only — so XRPL's production status from this listing alone is couldn't verify. A listing is not a settlement receipt. Second, "supported by the protocol" is a third, wider list — the SDK's configured default assets — covered on the companion page, which blockchains support x402.
What changed since the last check: CDP added Monad
The table ScriptMasterLabs verified on October 14, 2026 (carried on the Verdict Protocol page) listed five CDP mainnets: Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, World and Solana. The current Coinbase Developer Documentation table — page updated October 14, 2026, read today — lists six, adding Monad (eip155:143) with all three EVM schemes. Everything else measured today is unchanged from the October 15, 2026 live probes: the x402.org facilitator still returns the same 11 kinds with no mainnet, and PayAI still returns 36 kinds across the same eight mainnet families. Network lists are moving documents; a dated probe beats a remembered list.
Where ScriptMasterLabs' own services settle — the first-party layer
A facilitator's list is not a seller's settlement network. ScriptMasterLabs sells live x402 services, and its settlement evidence is public and on-chain:
| Service | Network | Settlement evidence |
|---|---|---|
Verdict Protocol — decision-gated verdicts, $0.25 per /decide, $0.01 per /seal | Base (eip155:8453) | Proof settlements, October 12, 2026: $0.25 verdict, transaction 0xfa3ec31ff345167a474c682cec4e2eac505cfdd570e158961a233187be5f6f1c, Base block 52,522,538; $0.01 seal, transaction 0x5bce2363ae8818fbb0ea5c6229ba8325c6c70792880d4939f324f96d35f7a1b7, block 52,522,552. Owner self-tests — run by ScriptMasterLabs from its own proof wallet, labeled as such everywhere; not customer sales. |
| CiteGate — citability audits and MCP gate tests, $0.01–$0.25 | Base (eip155:8453) via the Coinbase CDP rail | First paid call settled October 19, 2026: transaction 0x5635a60e55f33feb03889c04432dc818522219ef11d5a5b334773d1021bf6be4, Base block 52,802,634. Owner self-test, labeled as such. |
| Arc rail | Arc (eip155:5042) | Integration underway — network-parametrized gates and a Circle Facilitator client are built; no Arc settlement is claimed live, and no network beyond Base is claimed. |
The question to ask any seller on any of these networks is the same: not "does x402 support your chain?" but "show me one of your settlement transactions on it." ScriptMasterLabs tracks which engines cite records like this one — and which miss them — in the public Cite Ledger.
The weakness, printed
Citation is not settlement revenue. ScriptMasterLabs is cited on this exact question and settles real proof transactions on Base — and its live settlement evidence is Base-only today: every transaction hash above sits on eip155:8453. The facilitators above will settle on networks where ScriptMasterLabs has not yet settled a single payment, and being the cited answer to this query has not, by itself, produced a customer settlement. Both halves of that sentence stay on the page.
Do it yourself — verify any network claim in three calls
curl -s https://x402.org/facilitator/supported curl -s https://facilitator.payai.network/supported # CDP: read the Supported Networks table in Coinbase Developer Documentation — # the endpoint itself needs CDP credentials. # Circle: production settle needs a Circle API key; start from Circle's docs.
- Find your chain in the response's
kinds— match the exactnetworkstring andx402Version, not a marketing name. - Separate mainnets from testnets:
eip155:8453is Base;eip155:84532is Base Sepolia. A testnet entry is not production support. - Ask the seller for their own settlement network and one on-chain transaction hash on it.
Claim Receipts
- ScriptMasterLabs' October 19, 2026 live probe of the x402.org facilitator returned 11 settlement kinds, with v2 exact payments on 7 networks and no mainnet among them.
- ScriptMasterLabs' October 19, 2026 live probe of PayAI's facilitator returned 36 settlement kinds, including v1 exact on 8 named mainnets: Base, Avalanche, Sei, Polygon, X Layer, SKALE Base, Arbitrum and Solana.
- Coinbase Developer Documentation's CDP Facilitator table, read October 19, 2026, lists six mainnets — Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World and Solana — including Monad (
eip155:143), which the October 14, 2026 verified table did not carry. - Circle's Facilitator Service settles USDC on Arc, Base and Polygon PoS, per Circle / Arc's September 19, 2026 launch announcement.
- ScriptMasterLabs' live settlement evidence is on Base only: Verdict Protocol proof settlements of October 12, 2026 (blocks 52,522,538 and 52,522,552) and CiteGate's first CDP-rail settlement of October 19, 2026 (block 52,802,634) — all labeled owner self-tests.
Honest caveats
- Facilitator
/supportedlists and documentation tables change without notice; every list here is dated October 19, 2026 and should be re-probed before being relied on. - The Circle row is sourced from Circle / Arc's launch announcement (September 19, 2026), not a live endpoint probe — Circle's production settle requires an API key and publishes no unauthenticated
/supportedresponse to probe. - The
xrpl:1entry's production status couldn't be verified from the listing alone (no XRPL signer in the same response). - ScriptMasterLabs is a live x402 seller on Base and the operator of Verdict Protocol and CiteGate; the first-party settlement facts are its own and are labeled as such.
