How billing works

CDP bills onchain activity, not payment requests. With exact payments each accepted payment is one onchain transaction; with batch settlement many payments share one onchain transaction.

Supported mainnets in the docs: Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, World and Solana. Authentication uses a CDP API key ID and secret.
