Arc Simplifies Blockchain Payments with Agentic USDC Launch
Arc has launched Agentic Payments with USDC across three chains, removing gas wallet hassles for developers and Circle agents.
The new system is powered by Circle's Facilitator Service, which provides a hosted path for builders using the x402 protocol to accept USDC payments with onchain settlement.
Agentic payments are now live on Arc, marking a new step toward automated crypto payments between AI agents, applications, and services.
The update removes several technical hurdles that have traditionally complicated blockchain payments, making it easier for developers to monetize APIs, data services, and AI-powered applications.
