No status page, published rate limits beyond the token endpoint, or privacy policy of Agentcard's own was found, and the Trust Centre could not be read. Issuing costs $5,000 a month.\n\n**Crossmint API + Docs MCP.** Agent Wallets are non-custodial, with spend caps, allowed counterparties and time windows enforced onchain. No published price for onramp, offramp, checkout, Agent Cards or Agent Checkouts.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Agentcard\n\n1. Mint a platform token with `POST /api/v2/oauth/token` and cache it for its one hour. The endpoint allows 30 requests per 5 minutes per IP\n2. Send the same `Idempotency-Key` on every retry of `POST /api/v2/cards`, and the same `idempotency_key` on every retry of `buy_checkout`\n3. Pass `source: \"issued\"` to the MCP `create_card` tool for a card number. Without it the tool may start Vault setup and return a link\n4. Call `get_card_details` only at the payment form and never log the result. Each read notifies the member and may return `approval_required`\n5. Treat `transaction.authorized` and `order.*` webhooks as the record of a payment, and deduplicate deliveries on the event `id`\n\n### Crossmint API + Docs MCP\n\n1. Send an `x-idempotency-key` on every transaction or transfer create so a retry can't pay twice\n2. Use staging keys against testnets; production keys work on mainnets only, and Agent Checkouts has no staging at all\n3. On 429, wait and retry. No Retry-After header is documented, and writes are capped at 120 a minute per project\n4. Use Agent Wallets for x402 and MPP endpoints and Agent Cards for card merchants; they aren't interchangeable\n5. Append `.md` to any docs URL for a Markdown copy\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Agentcard or Crossmint API + Docs MCP?\n\nCrossmint API + Docs MCP scores 67.1 (B) on agent readiness against Agentcard's 56.5 (C), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Agentcard leads on schema \u0026 documentation.\n\n### Do Agentcard and Crossmint API + Docs MCP need an API key?\n\nAgentcard uses an OAuth sign-in. Crossmint API + Docs MCP needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Agentcard and Crossmint API + Docs MCP without installing anything?\n\nYes. Agentcard has a hosted endpoint at https://api.agentcard.sh and Crossmint API + Docs MCP at https://www.crossmint.com/api.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agentcard-vs-crossmint.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/agentcard-vs-crossmint.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"agentcard\", \"b\": \"crossmint\"}`.
