## 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`):

Example prompt: Can you check if this Polish REGON number is valid: 123456785?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to validate a Polish REGON business registration number with checksum verification, not just format matching. It is especially suitable for pay-per-call, low-volume or on-demand validation scenarios where you don't want a subscription. Prefer this over manual regex checks when checksum correctness matters (e.g., onboarding suppliers, processing invoices, or cleaning CRM data).

## Known failure modes

- Input value is empty or missing — likely returns valid:false with a descriptive reason
- REGON fails checksum verification — returns valid:false with reason explaining the error
- Value contains non-numeric characters or wrong length (REGON must be 9 or 14 digits) — returns valid:false
- Payment not completed via x402 — returns HTTP 402 Payment Required before processing
- Malformed request body — may return HTTP 400

## How this service works

Format and checksum validation for IBAN, EU VAT, Polish NIP/REGON/PESEL and email, pay-per-call via x402. Only $0.001 (0.1 cent) per check, paid via x402 in USDC on Base.

## Output

A JSON object containing: 'type' (pl-regon), 'valid' (boolean indicating whether the REGON passes format and checksum checks), 'reason' (a short explanation such as 'ok' or a description of why it failed), and 'normalized' (the cleaned/normalized form of the REGON number).
