Dexter Proxy

Dexter Proxy is a universal routing layer that lets you access any x402-enabled API through Dexter infrastructure.

Just prepend x402.dexter.cash/r/ to any x402 URL and go.

Base URL: https://x402.dexter.cash/r/

How It Works

When you route a request through Dexter Proxy:

1. The request reaches the endpoint – we forward it transparently
2. If payment is required – we inject Dexter as the facilitator
3. You pay through Dexter – standard x402 flow, sub-400ms settlement
4. You get your data – plus validation and quality guarantees

It works with any x402 endpoint, regardless of who built it or which facilitator they originally specified.

Usage

Before Dexter Proxy

https://api.example.com/premium-data

With Dexter Proxy

https://x402.dexter.cash/r/api.example.com/premium-data

That's it. The endpoint doesn't need to know about Dexter. The buyer doesn't need special setup. Just change the URL prefix.

Example Request

# Health check
curl https://x402.dexter.cash/r/health
 
# Access any x402 endpoint
curl -X POST https://x402.dexter.cash/r/your-api.com/endpoint \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"your": "payload"}'

Benefits

For the Ecosystem

Technical Capabilities

Response Validation

Requests routed through Dexter Proxy benefit from response validation powered by zauthx402. This ensures that when you pay for an API call, you get what you paid for.
