Agent Wallets

Manage agent balances, track payments, and freeze wallets when spending needs to stop.

Wallet controls

Give each agent a wallet with spending limits and a clear owner.

Wallet assignment

Attach wallets to specific agents, teams, or environments so spend ownership stays clear.

Payment limits

Apply controls consistently across stablecoin transfers and hosted payment flows.

Live wallet status

See the balance, payment activity, and frozen or active status of each wallet.

Environment separation

Keep sandbox testing distinct from production spend while using the same policy model.

Supported networks

Create wallets on supported networks, including Tempo and Base.

One flow, two custody models
