AI 摘要

Cloudflare 宣布推出货币化网关（Monetization Gateway），基于 x402 开放协议，在边缘侧要求 AI 智能体支付后才能获取受保护资源。网站所有者可为网页、数据集、API 或 MCP 工具设定每次调用价格（如 $0.01）。智能体请求时收到 402 Payment Required 响应，支付后重试并出示支付证明即可获取答案。结算使用稳定币。该机制有效的前提是智能体必须携带钱包、理解 x402 并遵守付费规则。对普通用户而言，AI 助手可能需要获得支出权限才能完成任务（如“此来源需 $0.03，是否使用？”）。

Cloudflare just announced a monetization layer for the agentic web， using x402 at the edge to make AI agents pay before resources respond.

Means AI agents may start paying websites directly， instead of only reading free pages or using prearranged API keys.

Today， most AI products reach outside information through contracts， scraping， search partnerships， paid APIs， or free public pages.

Cloudflare wants to make that access behave more like a paid HTTP request.

When an agent asks for a protected resource， Cloudflare can block the request before origin access.

A website owner can say， "this dataset costs $0.01 per call，" and Cloudflare enforces that rule before the request reaches the server.

The agent asks for the resource， gets a 402 Payment Required response， pays， retries with payment proof， and receives the answer.

The major change is that payment becomes part of the web request itself.

For a normal AI user， this could mean your assistant sometimes needs spending permission before completing a task.

A research agent might say， "this source costs $0.03， should I use it？"

A shopping agent might pay for inventory data， product comparisons， booking tools， or private market data.

The catch is that this only works when agents carry wallets， understand x402， and obey spending rules.
