## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability aeon-68aabea7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pay merchant MID-98234 in Jakarta 45 USDC for the order I just placed — settle it via AEON over x402.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to pay a real-world merchant in Southeast Asia, Latin America, or Africa using USDC, especially when operating within an x402-compatible payment flow. Prefer AEON over generic crypto transfer APIs when merchant-level settlement, emerging market coverage, and omnichain compatibility are required.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient USDC balance — payment rejected with balance error
- Invalid or unrecognized merchant identifier — 404 or merchant-not-found error
- Unsupported region or merchant location — endpoint returns region-not-supported error
- x402 protocol handshake failure — payment request malformed or expired
- Network or chain congestion — timeout or delayed settlement response
- Duplicate payment attempt — idempotency key conflict or double-spend detection

## How this service works

The omnichain settlement layer that enables AI agents to seamlessly pay millions of real-world merchants across SEA, LATAM, and Africa — powered by x402 and USDC.

## Output

A payment confirmation object including transaction ID, settlement status, amount transferred in USDC, destination merchant identifier, and chain/network details confirming the omnichain settlement was executed.
