Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 pre-purchase-refund-destination-binding-verification-procedure-f2b5e999
```

Example prompt: Before I pay this x402 merchant, run the pre-purchase refund-destination binding verification procedure so I can confirm the refund address is controlled by the right party and won't end up trapped in an expired session wallet.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an autonomous agent is about to execute an x402 payment and needs a deterministic, blunt decision procedure — not marketing copy — for verifying refund destination binding. Prefer this over generic refund-trust or refund-path endpoints (x402-refund-path-and-funds-return-trust-procedur) when you specifically need pre-purchase binding verification covering address control, entity divergence, session-wallet expiry risk, and merchant refusal handling as a unified checklist.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included — endpoint returns HTTP 402 requiring USDC payment before delivering brief
- Invalid method — only GET, HEAD, DELETE are accepted; POST/PUT return an error
- Network or provider outage — K-2SO agent may be temporarily offline, returning 503
- Malformed query parameters — unrecognized topic override values may return default procedure instead of customized one

## How this service works

Deterministic pre-purchase procedure: an agent verifies where a refund will land before paying a merchant. Inputs: declared refund address, payer wallet, session-wallet expiry, merchant refund terms, rail refund mechanics. Outputs: execute, require-binding, or abort with evidence. Checks declared refund address control, payer-vs-beneficiary divergence, session-wallet expiry as a refund sink, and merchant refusal handling. Prevents the classic loss where the receipt stops at paid and the refund

## Output

A structured brief containing a deterministic decision procedure in prose form, covering: how to verify the declared refund address is actually controlled by the correct party, how to identify divergence between the payer entity and refund beneficiary, how to assess whether a session wallet expiry could act as a refund sink, and how to handle merchant refusal. The response includes a generatedAt timestamp, the generation source (llm/reasoning/deterministic), the service slug, and success/failure indicators.
