answer context
How does Circle Gateway batch nanopayments on Arc for creators?
Circle Gateway batches nanopayments on Arc by pooling multiple signed EIP-3009 USDC authorizations, which are referenced by a Gateway payment ID rather than settled as individual on-chain transactions. This batching approach enables sub-cent payments to clear without incurring per-payment gas costs for creators.
Open answer evidenceExplains x402 settlement on Arc, including the Circle Gateway-batched scheme that pools signed authorizations for gasless sub-cent settlement. Essential technical detail.Seed/demo content from Payments Protocol Notes. Title: x402 Settlement Schemes on Arc. Excerpt: x402 turns HTTP 402 into a real payment step: a resource returns payment requirements, the client signs an EIP-3009 USDC authorization, and the server settles it. The 'exact' scheme settles that authorization directly on Arc as a single USDC transfer, so the reader's debit is a verifiable on-chain transaction. The Circle Gateway-batched scheme instead pools many signed authorizations for gasless sub-cent settlement, referenced by a Gateway payment id rather than one Arc tx.
