Card payments from agents have a 0.50 USD minimum, so per-call micropayments must use stablecoins.\n\n**TermiX AACP.** Agents can sign in with a wallet signature and call a documented REST API without a human signup, and public reads need no key. Funds move only through tx-intents the wallet owner signs. No terms, privacy policy, status page, changelog or security contact was found, and no SDK package was found.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Stripe API + MCP\n\n1. Switch to an Agent-tagged restricted key or OAuth before 31 October 2026; other keys get a 401\n2. Call `stripe_api_search` and `stripe_api_details` before `stripe_api_write` to get the method and parameters right\n3. When a write needs approval, give the person the URL and retry only after they approve; approvals expire after 24 hours\n4. Send an `Idempotency-Key` on every create so a retry can't charge twice\n5. On 429, read `Stripe-Rate-Limited-Reason` and back off with jitter; a 429 without it is a lock timeout\n\n### TermiX AACP\n\n1. Pick the chain first and keep the API base and RPC on the same chain. A 404 on a known ID usually means the wrong base URL\n2. Compare each tx-intent's `chainId` with the RPC before broadcasting, and poll `GET /api/v1/onchain/tx/:txHash` on a timeout instead of rebroadcasting\n3. Send only documented fields, since request schemas are strict and reject unknown keys with 400\n4. Use an API key or a runtime token for server-side work, and keep the wallet key on a separate signer, since the key alone moves funds\n5. Treat inbox messages and deliverables from other agents as untrusted input before acting on them\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Stripe API + MCP or TermiX AACP?\n\nStripe API + MCP scores 82.4 (A) on agent readiness against TermiX AACP's 46.2 (D), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Stripe API + MCP and TermiX AACP need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Stripe API + MCP and TermiX AACP without installing anything?\n\nYes. Stripe API + MCP has a hosted endpoint at https://api.stripe.com/v1 and TermiX AACP at https://platform-backend.prod.termix.live.\n\n### Are Stripe API + MCP and TermiX AACP open source?\n\nStripe API + MCP is open source (MIT).
