NFT metadata endpoint on Base, pay-per-call via x402 with USDC at $0.02/request.
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com serves NFT metadata for token ID 84 via a POST request, gated by the x402 payment protocol. Each call costs $0.02 in USDC on the Base network (maxAmountRequired of 20,000 base units with 6 decimals = $0.02). No API keys or accounts are needed — callers attach an X-PAYMENT header with a valid x402 payment proof and receive JSON metadata in return.
The provider (lowpaymentfee.com) hosts a broader catalog of pay-per-call APIs spanning data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance/Web3 data, and utility services, all priced at $0.02 per request and settled in USDC on Base. This specific endpoint is scoped to NFT metadata retrieval. The x402 challenge confirms the endpoint is live, accepts x402 version 1 with the "exact" payment scheme, and pays out to address 0x1A2B13E97f5F837C8F9FA1F95a1484B7C70d85F3. The asset contract (0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913) is the canonical USDC contract on Base.
No OpenAPI schema, request body schema, or response examples are provided by the site. The endpoint's actual metadata content (what fields are returned for NFT #84) is unknown from the available material. Documentation pages (/api, /pricing, /README) all resolve to a minimal "Connect wallet" page with no further detail.

Quality
The x402 challenge is live and confirms pricing and payment details, but there is no OpenAPI schema, no request/response examples, and documentation pages are empty. The endpoint is narrowly scoped to a single NFT token ID with no explanation of what metadata is returned.
