x402 Facilitators

A facilitator is the stateless service that verifies and settles x402 payments on behalf of a resource server. Choosing one means choosing which chains you accept, what fee structure you absorb, and whose uptime your paid endpoints depend on. Every known production or beta facilitator is listed below.
