Commerce
Explore checks for agent commerce protocols, including ACP, UCP, x402 and MPP, and learn how agents may discover payment or purchase options.
These checks look for the protocols that let an agent pay for something or complete a purchase. The standards are all new and still settling, so every check here is an emerging bonus check: off by default, and when turned on, able to add points but never to lower a score.
When nothing is found the result is N/A, not a failure. An ordinary site that does not sell to agents is not penalised.
