Locus Founder accepts payments in USDC, the world's second-largest dollar-pegged cryptocurrency, as well as card payments. This payment mechanism runs on Pay With Locus, a non-custodial wallet infrastructure built for AI agents to spend money safely, with built-in spending controls and auditability.

Locus Founder settles payments in USDC, a dollar-pegged stablecoin, directly into a non-custodial wallet controlled by the agent, without a bank account or days of settlement. The agent earns, holds, and spends money in real time — and the infrastructure is built so humans can audit and control exactly what it does with that money. When a sale is made, Checkout With Locus, a Stripe-style payment SDK, settles the funds directly into the agent's Locus wallet.

I'm sure absolutely nothing wrong will happen with this. /s
