AxLabs ships full Ax402 stack on Neo X

AxLabs has deployed the complete Ax402 stack on Neo X, giving developers a live payment infrastructure that lets AI agents pay each other programmatically on a per-request basis using supported tokens including $USDC and xGAS. The production release follows Ax402's initial July launch on Neo X, when the gateway integrated through xGAS, a wrapped GAS token deployed by Bane Labs for x402 payments. $USDC settlement on Neo X became possible one day before the announcement, when $USDC.e and WETH arrived on the network through Chainlink's CCIP-powered Transporter bridge on Sept. 14.

AxLabs has deployed the complete Ax402 stack on Neo X, giving developers a live payment infrastructure to monetize REST APIs, gate resources behind a stablecoin paywall, and let AI agents pay each other programmatically. Payments settle on a per-request basis using supported tokens including $USDC and xGAS. The release of the Ax402 stack marks its move from the initial July launch, covered by NNT, to a full production deployment. Ax402 is built on x402, an open protocol that repurposes the HTTP 402 Payment Required status code as the trigger for machine-to-machine payments. When Ax402 first launched on Neo X in July, the gateway integrated through xGAS, a wrapped GAS token deployed by Bane Labs for x402 payments, providing a Neo-native settlement option alongside the protocol’s broader $USDC support. $USDC settlement on Neo X became possible one day before this announcement, when $USDC.e and WETH arrived on the network through Chainlink’s CCIP-powered Transporter bridge on Sept. 14. What it enables Ax402 addresses a friction point in machine-to-machine commerce: AI agents and API consumers currently lack a standard way to pay for resources on a per-request basis without accounts, subscriptions, or checkout flows. For example, a research agent could pay for a single query to a premium data API, a coding agent could pay to run a specialized security scan, or one AI agent could pay another for a translation or target=" blank" rel="noopener" ax402.io.
