Retrieve portfolio holdings data via x402 micropayment on Base for $0.02 per request.
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com returns holdings data for portfolio ID 38. It is part of a broader platform (lowpaymentfee.com) that offers dozens of pay-per-call API endpoints spanning data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance/Web3 data, and utility services — all gated behind the x402 payment protocol on the Base network using USDC.
The specific endpoint `/api/v1/portfolios/38/holdings` accepts POST requests and returns JSON. Payment is settled on-chain via USDC on Base (contract 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913). The x402 challenge advertises a maxAmountRequired of 20000 base units, which at 6 decimals for USDC equals $0.02 per request — consistent with the platform's uniform $0.02/request pricing. No API keys are required; access is granted purely through the x402 payment header. The platform advertises no rate limits and instant access.
Documentation is extremely sparse. The docs, API, pricing, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no substantive content. There is no OpenAPI schema, no request/response examples, and no description of what fields the holdings response contains or what parameters the POST body accepts. The endpoint is confirmed live (402 challenge captured), but the lack of documentation makes it difficult to know exactly what data is returned or how to structure a request body.

Quality
The endpoint is live and returns a valid x402 challenge with clear pricing, but there is zero documentation on request parameters or response schema. The docs pages are empty (wallet-connect only). The endpoint path suggests portfolio holdings data but nothing confirms what fields are returned. Effectively a stub listing.
Warnings
- —No API documentation available — docs, pricing, and README pages all render only a wallet-connect prompt
- —No request body schema or response schema documented anywhere
- —Unknown what data portfolio 38 actually contains or whether the portfolio ID is meaningful to external users
- —No OpenAPI spec or ai-plugin manifest found
