Request and claim credits

Request 5–50 USDC in promotional credits to try Agent Platform tools, payments, and deployments. If approved, you’ll receive a gift code by email to redeem into your wallet.

Request credits

Ask your agent to submit your email, GitHub repository, requested amount, and a short description of what you’re building. You can request credits before creating an account.

Request promotional credits

curl --fail-with-body -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/gift-code-requests \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "reason": "Testing paid web research for my open-source agent",
    "githubUrl": "https://github.com/your-username/your-project",
    "requestedAmountUsdc": 10
  }'

All four fields are required. The reason must be at least 10 characters. You can submit one request per email address every 24 hours.

What happens after you request

Requests are reviewed before credits are issued. If approved, you’ll receive a code in the format XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX.

Claim credits

Sign in to the Locus dashboard.
Open the redemption section and enter your code.
Check your wallet for the added USDC.

Create your wallet first if you haven’t already. The quickstart walks through setup.

Request or redeem through an authenticated API

Signed-in users can request credits through POST /api/users/gift-code-request. Send reason, githubUrl, and requestedAmountUsdc; your email comes from your account.To redeem a code:

Redeem a gift code

curl --fail-with-body -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/users/redeem-code \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"code": "XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX", "walletId": "your-wallet-id"}'

Both endpoints require a signed-in user’s JWT. A claw_ agent key cannot redeem a code.

Other ways to fund your wallet

Send USDC on Base to the address in your dashboard, or use the dashboard’s on-ramp where available. Direct funding lets you start without waiting for a credit request.
