## 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 brandfetch-api-access-provisioning-staging-fef1ff55 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Set me up with a Brandfetch API key by paying $50 — I want 1,000 prepaid credits to start pulling brand assets.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need programmatic, crypto-funded access to the Brandfetch brand data API. Ideal for agents or developers who want to self-serve API credentials and load them with credits in a single payment step without a traditional sign-up flow. Prefer this over manual Brandfetch dashboard registration when operating in automated or crypto-native environments.

## Known failure modes

- USD amount below 1 or above 500 — rejected by schema validation
- Non-integer USD value — fails minimum/maximum validation
- Insufficient USDC balance in wallet — payment fails before key is issued
- Same wallet re-payment may fail if payment infrastructure doesn't recognize prior wallet
- Staging environment instability — key may not be usable against production Brandfetch API

## How this service works

Provision standing Brandfetch API access: pay N whole US dollars (?usd=N, 1–500) to receive an API key preloaded with 20 API credits per dollar. Paying again from the same wallet tops the same key up.

## Output

Returns a Brandfetch API key loaded with 20 credits per dollar paid. If the same wallet pays again, the existing key's credit balance is topped up rather than a new key being issued.
