PIPRAIL_PRIVATE_KEYسري Your wallet's private key/seed for the chosen chain. Optional: omit it to run read-only (discover/quote/register/budget/guide); set it to let the agent pay. Stays on your machine; the spend policy caps every payment.PIPRAIL_CHAINChain to pay on (default: base).PIPRAIL_CHAINSPay across several chains (instead of PIPRAIL_CHAIN): a comma-separated list, e.g. base,polygon,solana. Give each its own PIPRAIL_<CHAIN>_KEY (+ optional PIPRAIL_<CHAIN>_RPC_URL). The agent pays whichever chain a 402 asks for — the first listed that can settle — under one shared budget.PIPRAIL_MAX_AMOUNTMax spend per single payment, in token units (default: 0.10).PIPRAIL_MAX_TOTALLifetime spend cap per token, in token units (default: 10.00).PIPRAIL_MAX_TOTAL_DENOMCross-token GRAND TOTAL: one spend cap per denomination across every stablecoin and chain, e.g. USD:20.00,EUR:5.00. Not a price oracle — sums tokens of the same unit, each counted 1:1. Native coins are excluded.PIPRAIL_MAX_PAYMENTSLifetime cap on the NUMBER of payments, across every chain + token (e.g. 100).PIPRAIL_MAX_PAYMENTS_PER_WINDOWCap on the number of payments within PIPRAIL_WINDOW_SECONDS (a rolling rate limit; set PIPRAIL_WINDOW_SECONDS too).PIPRAIL_WARN_AT_FRACTIONEmit an early-warning event when spend crosses this fraction of any cap, e.g. 0.8 (80%). Needs PIPRAIL_EVENT_LOG to be visible.PIPRAIL_SPEND_LOGPath to a local append-only spend log. When set, the budget (lifetime, grand total, counts) SURVIVES a restart — hydrated from this file. No backend; you own the file.PIPRAIL_EVENT_LOGMirror payment events (settled / declined / budget-threshold) as one-line JSON to 'stderr' or a file path — the operator's notification stream. Default: off.PIPRAIL_TOKENSComma-separated allowed token symbols, plus the alias 'native' for the chain's coin (default: USDC).PIPRAIL_SCHEMESComma-separated payment schemes to settle (default: onchain-proof). Add 'exact' (onchain-proof,exact) to also pay standard x402 servers GASLESS on EVM + Solana (method auto-selected). Add 'upto' to also pay metered x402 servers on EVM (Permit2): sign a MAX, the server settles the actual <= max.

المحتويات
Let any HTTP endpoint charge for itself, and any agent pay for itself — across every major chain, in a couple of lines.
Website · Documentation · npm
PipRail implements the open x402 "402 Payment Required" standard with no backend, no database, no account, no API key, and no fee. Payments settle straight into your wallet, verified locally against your own RPC — across every major EVM chain plus Solana, TON, Tron, NEAR, Sui, Aptos, Algorand, Stellar & the XRP Ledger. Self-custodial throughout.
How a payment moves
The middle is the difference. A traditional processor holds the money in transit, takes days to release it, and can freeze or reverse it. PipRail removes the middle entirely — the agent pays the merchant's wallet directly, the merchant verifies it locally against their own RPC, and it settles in one transaction at 0% fee, self-custodial end to end.

📊 The pitch deck
▶︎ **Open the full deck — PDF** ◀︎
Opens right here in your browser — no download, GitHub renders it inline. 16 slides · every stat sourced in the speaker notes.
The whole thesis in one read: why agent payments are happening now, why chain & token fragmentation is the enemy, and how a single chain: parameter turns PipRail into the universal adapter. The payment path is 0% forever — the moat and the distribution; value accrues to the layer around the free rail, never the rail itself.
What's inside — the 16-slide arc
| # | Slide | # | Slide |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hero — the universal payment rail for the agent economy | 9 | The MCP — give your agent a budget-bound wallet |
| 2 | Why now — money is moving on-chain | 10 | Open · dual-rail · gasless |
| 3 | The new buyer — autonomous agents | 11 | MPP vs PipRail — count the middlemen |
| 4 | The standard — x402, "402 Payment Required" | 12 | Discovery + integrations |
| 5 | The problem — chain & token fragmentation | 13 | Why PipRail wins — the moat |
| 6 | The reveal — the universal adapter | 14 | Traction |
| 7 | How it works — 402 → pay → verify → 200 | 15 | Business model — open core, 0% rail |
| 8 | Two sides, one SDK — accept and pay | 16 | The ask |

What's here
@piprail/sdk | The TypeScript SDK — accept & make x402 payments. The product. Optionally swaps tokens where an open, keyless route exists (no fee, no API key, never automatic). |
@piprail/mcp | An MCP server giving any AI agent a budget-bound wallet (io.github.piprail/mcp). |
@piprail/create | npm create @piprail — scaffolds a runnable, mainnet-by-default x402 merchant in one command. Paste a public address; no key, no backend. |
integrations/ | First-party agent-framework integrations — OpenClaw, Hermes, elizaOS (@piprail/elizaos-plugin), n8n (@piprail/n8n-nodes-piprail) & Mastra. Each wraps @piprail/sdk or @piprail/mcp; nothing new to build. |
site/ · docs/ · examples/ | piprail.com · the docs.piprail.com source · runnable demos. |
Quick taste
npm install @piprail/sdk viem
import { requirePayment } from '@piprail/sdk'
app.get('/report',
requirePayment({ chain: 'base', token: 'USDC', amount: '0.05', payTo: '0xYourWallet…' }),
(_req, res) => res.json({ report: 'TOP SECRET' }),
)
That route now costs 0.05 USDC on Base, paid straight to your wallet. Point an agent at it and it pays itself — name any chain with a single chain: parameter. The full quickstart, every chain, the MCP server, spend controls, and the error model are in the docs.

Spread the word
PipRail is free, open-source, and has no backend to sell you — so word of mouth is how it grows. If it saved you from building a payments backend, the best way to give back is to help other developers (and their agents) find it:
- ⭐ Star PipRail on GitHub — the #1 way to help others discover it
- 𝕏 Follow @piprailhq — new chains, ship logs, and agent-payment tips
- 🌐 piprail.com · 📖 docs.piprail.com
