Hilt pricing

Workspace for merchants. Pay API for agents and developers.

Choose the surface you are buying. Workspace is for dashboard-led checkout operations. Hilt Pay API is for software, APIs, bots, datasets, and agents that need payment sessions, receipts, entitlements, webhooks, and audit state through code.

One business, two surfaces

Hilt Pay Workspace serves humans in the dashboard. Hilt Pay API serves software and agents. Both use the same payment-to-access operating layer: verified payment, receipt, entitlement, webhook, support context, and audit history.

Pricing principle

Successful volume only

Transaction fees are tied to successful payments, not failed attempts or draft links.

Workspace and API are separate

Workspace plans are for operators. API plans are for products, agents, and code-first paid access.

x402 is the protocol layer

Hilt Pay API uses x402 for protected-resource flows. Launch settlement and fees are Solana USDC.

Built for search, agents, and buyers

The page keeps both surfaces explicit, so humans, search engines, and LLMs can distinguish merchant pricing from API infrastructure pricing.

Hilt Pay Workspace pricing

Merchant workspace pricing for stablecoin checkout operations.

Compare the plans

For Workspace customers, the meaningful differences are economics, operating depth, and support response.

Across the Workspace ladder, recurring access stays buyer-approved each cycle through a renewal link. Higher plans add lower Hilt fees, more live capacity, and stronger operating tools as volume grows.

Direct answers

What buyers usually need clarified before they choose a plan.

The useful pricing questions are usually about fund flow, recurring behavior, and whether Workspace or Hilt Pay API is the right commercial surface.

What does Hilt pricing actually include?

Workspace plans include wallet-native checkout, merchant-controlled payouts, receipts, member records, support context, dashboard operations, and developer surfaces. Hilt Pay API plans package the same payment-to-access machinery for software and agents.

How do transaction fees work?

Hilt transaction fees are tied to successful payments. The plan page shows the monthly fee, the transaction fee, and the operational differences that appear as a merchant grows.

Do recurring flows require custody or hidden autopay?

No. The current public recurring model is buyer-approved renewal links each cycle. Hilt keeps renewal history visible without hiding funds in a custody layer.

Are API, CLI, SDKs, and webhooks limited to higher tiers?

Workspace includes developer surfaces for merchant automation. Hilt Pay API has its own pricing surface for agent-first products that need setup intents, protected resources, entitlement checks, and infrastructure support.

Still choosing

Start on the lighter plan and move up when the workflow proves itself.

The point of the pricing is to keep the self-serve path credible. You should not need an enterprise sales process just to launch a payment-to-membership flow that is still finding its footing.
