Amazon Web Services, Coinbase, and Stripe have launched preview support for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Payments, enabling AI agents to autonomously pay for APIs, web content, MCP servers, and other agent services using stablecoin micropayments executed inside the agent workflow itself. AgentCore integrates Coinbase’s x402 protocol and wallet infrastructure alongside Stripe-owned Privy wallets, allowing developers to set spending limits, manage authentication, and execute machine-to-machine payments in real time when an agent encounters a paid endpoint returning an HTTP 402 “Payment Required” response. Transactions are settled through stablecoin payment rails.
