WordPress

Production plugin that connects WordPress to the ax402 control plane and monetizes REST routes via the hosted gateway. Source: ax402-sdk/plugins/wordpress/.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.0+, PHP 8.0+ with OpenSSL
  • API key with apiManager scope preset

Setup

• Copy plugins/wordpress/ to wp-content/plugins/ax402-gateway/
  • Bundle or symlink plugins/shared/ for the PHP HTTP client
  • Settings → Ax402: control plane URL + API key (stored encrypted)
  • Create API & gateway — auto-onboards with upstream /wp-json
  • Sync REST route — pick route, USDC price, scheme

Buyer flow

Buyers hit the gateway hostname with an x402 client (SDK, CLI, or agent). The gateway verifies payment and proxies to the WordPress REST API.
