Pay-per-call employee data API on Base via x402, settled in USDC at $0.02/request.
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com provides access to employee data (specifically employee record #188) via the x402 payment protocol. It accepts POST requests and returns JSON. Payment is settled on the Base network using USDC (contract 0x8335…2913) with a maximum cost of 20,000 base units, which equals $0.02 per request (USDC uses 6 decimals).
The provider lowpaymentfee.com hosts a broader suite of pay-per-call APIs spanning data & analytics, AI/ML (sentiment analysis, summarization, classification, embeddings), finance & Web3 (price feeds, exchange rates, token quotes, gas estimates), and infrastructure utilities (geocoding, validation, conversion, generation). All endpoints are priced at $0.02 per request with no API keys, no rate limits, and no minimum commitments. Payments are handled entirely through the x402 protocol on the Base L2 network.
The specific endpoint `/api/v1/employees/188` appears to be a data retrieval endpoint for a single employee record. No OpenAPI schema, detailed documentation, or example responses were found in the crawl — the docs, pricing, and API pages all returned only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no substantive content. The exact fields returned by this endpoint are unknown.

Quality
The endpoint is live (402 challenge confirmed) and pricing is clear ($0.02 USDC on Base), but there is no OpenAPI schema, no documentation, no example request/response, and the purpose of the employee data endpoint is only inferable from the URL path. The docs pages returned no useful content.
