Real-time stock price data for GILD via x402 micropayment on Base, $0.02 per request.
What it does
This endpoint returns the current stock price for Gilead Sciences (ticker: GILD) through a pay-per-call x402 micropayment model. It is part of a broader suite of APIs hosted at lowpaymentfee.com that span data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance, crypto, and utility services — all priced at $0.02 per request settled in USDC on the Base network.
The endpoint accepts POST requests and requires an X-PAYMENT header containing a valid x402 payment proof. No API keys, subscriptions, or rate limits are imposed; callers simply attach a micropayment to each request. The x402 challenge advertises a maxAmountRequired of 20,000 base units of USDC (6 decimals), which equals $0.02. Payment is sent to the on-chain address 0x1A2B13E97f5F837C8F9FA1F95a1484B7C70d85F3 with a 300-second timeout window.
Documentation beyond the landing page is sparse — the /docs, /pricing, /api, and /README pages all resolve to a minimal "Connect wallet" prompt with no additional technical detail. There is no OpenAPI spec, no example request/response payloads, and no description of the response schema. The endpoint is confirmed live (returns HTTP 402 with a well-formed x402 challenge), but the actual data source and response format for the stock price are unknown.

Quality
The endpoint is confirmed live with a valid x402 challenge and clear pricing ($0.02 USDC on Base). However, there is no OpenAPI spec, no documented request/response schema, no example payloads, and the docs pages are effectively empty. The actual data source and response format must be inferred entirely from the URL path.
Warnings
- —No OpenAPI or schema documentation available — response format is unknown
- —All documentation pages (/docs, /pricing, /api, /README) return only a 'Connect wallet' prompt with no technical content
- —Data source for stock prices is undisclosed; accuracy and freshness are unverifiable
- —The specific endpoint /api/v1/stocks/GILD/price is not listed on the landing page (only /api/v1/finance/prices is); it may be an undocumented or dynamically-routed path
