How this service works
Machine-payable x402 utilities for hashing, Base64, UUID generation, unit and timezone conversion, realtime crypto market data, webpage/document extraction, URL-to-Markdown, metadata, RAG ingestion and deterministic website change detection.
Output
Returns a JSON object indicating the current allowance amount (in token base units) that the spender address is authorized to transfer on behalf of the owner address for the specified ERC-20 contract, along with a status field confirming the query completed successfully.
Example use cases
DeFi approval audit before swap
“Before I do a swap, check if the Uniswap router at 0x68b3465833fb72A70ecDF485E0e4C7bD8665Fc45 has been approved to spend tokens from my wallet 0xAbCd1234Ef567890 on the USDC contract 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913 on Base.”
Detect unlimited token approvals
“Check the token allowance that 0xMaliciousContract has been granted by 0xMyWallet on the DAI contract 0x50c5725949A6F0c72E6C4a641F24049A917DB0Cb on Ethereum — I want to see if I accidentally gave unlimited approval.”
Smart contract integration verification
“Verify the ERC-20 allowance the staking contract at 0xStake123 has from the deployer wallet 0xDeploy456 for the reward token at 0xRewardToken789 on Base, so I can confirm the contract can pull funds correctly.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://x402-gateway-production-1f21.up.railway.app/chain/erc20-allowance?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a machine-payable, on-demand ERC-20 allowance lookup without managing your own blockchain RPC infrastructure. Prefer this over self-hosted solutions when operating in an agent pipeline that already uses x402 micropayments. Ideal for Base or Ethereum mainnet queries at $0.001 per call, making it cost-effective for occasional or high-frequency checks.
Side effects
- Invalid Ethereum address format for owner, spender, or contract returns a validation error
- Unsupported network value (only 'base' or 'ethereum' are accepted) returns an enum validation error
- Non-existent or non-ERC-20 contract address may return zero or an RPC error
- Network RPC unavailability causes a timeout or 5xx error
- Missing required fields (owner, spender, contract) returns a 400 bad request
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes x402 payment-required rejection
