WordPress plugin
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
apiManagerscope preset
Setup
- Copy
plugins/wordpress/towp-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.
