Funding the AgnicPay Wallet

Provide instructions for adding USDC to the user's AgnicPay wallet on Base.

Confirm wallet is initialized and authed

npx agnic@latest status

If the wallet is not authenticated, refer to the authenticate-wallet skill.

Get Wallet Address

npx agnic@latest address

This displays the user's wallet address on each supported network.

Funding Options

Option 1: AgnicPay Dashboard (Recommended)

1. Go to pay.agnic.ai
2. Sign in with the same account used in the CLI
3. Navigate to the dashboard
4. Use the "Add Funds" button to deposit USDC via card, bank transfer, or crypto

Option 2: Direct USDC Transfer

Send USDC directly to the wallet address on Base network:

1. Get the address: npx agnic@latest address
2. From any wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase, Phantom, etc.), send USDC on Base to that address
3. Verify arrival: npx agnic@latest balance --network base

Important: Send USDC on Base network only. USDC on other chains (Ethereum mainnet, Arbitrum, etc.) will not appear in the AgnicPay balance.

Option 3: Bridge from Another Chain

If the user has USDC on Ethereum, Arbitrum, or Optimism, they can bridge to Base using:

• bridge.base.org (official Base bridge)
• Any cross-chain bridge that supports Base

Verify Balance

After funding, confirm the deposit arrived:

npx agnic@latest balance --network base

Important Notes

• AgnicPay wallets use USDC (not ETH) for payments and trading
• Base network is the primary chain
• Minimum recommended balance: $1.00 USDC for testing
• Small amounts of ETH on Base may be needed for gas (auto-handled in most cases)

Prerequisites

• Must be authenticated (npx agnic@latest status to check)

Error Handling

Common errors:

• "Not authenticated" — Run npx agnic@latest auth login first
• Balance shows 0 after transfer — Verify the transfer was on Base network (not Ethereum mainnet)
• Transfer pending — Base transactions typically confirm in 2-3 seconds
