TL;DR
| Flight402 | Event402 | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | AI-native flight booking skill | AI-native event ticketing API |
| How it works | You say where. AI finds options. You confirm. AI pays and books. | You say what. AI finds tickets. You confirm. AI pays and confirms. |
| Payment | USDC via FluxA Wallet + x402 | USDC via FluxA Wallet + x402 |
| Key feature | Auto-applies best coupon before you confirm | Supports coupon codes + discount promotions |
| Setup | One install command into your AI assistant | One install command into your AI assistant |
| You never touch | Checkout pages, card forms, coupon hunting | Checkout pages, card forms, manual code entry |
The bottom line: Both products let your AI assistant handle the search, pricing, and payment execution — but you stay in control. You set the wallet budget, you confirm the booking, and every refund goes straight back to your wallet.
The Problem: AI Agents That Can Recommend, But Can't Pay
Every major AI assistant can find you a great flight or surface upcoming shows in your city. Then it hands you a link. You open a new tab, dig out your credit card, hunt for a coupon code, and work through a checkout flow the AI couldn't touch.
The intelligence ends exactly where the friction starts.
This is a structural gap, not a UX problem. The web's checkout stack — card forms, redirect flows, session-based authentication — was designed for humans at browsers. When an AI agent hits a payment wall, the loop breaks by design. As x402.org describes it, payments have never been native to the internet; every transaction requires stepping outside the core protocol to complete.
The x402 protocol, developed by Coinbase and now backed by Cloudflare, Google, and Visa, was built to close this gap. It activates the long-dormant HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code: a server names its price, a client pays instantly in USDC, and the resource is delivered — one HTTP round-trip. To understand how this works under the hood, FluxA's guide How x402 Turns HTTP Into a Payment Layer for AI Agents is the clearest starting point.
Flight402 and Event402 are the first consumer products from FluxA that bring this protocol into daily life — for booking flights and buying event tickets, entirely through your AI assistant.
What Are Flight402 and Event402?
Flight402 is a flight-booking skill for AI assistants: you say where you want to go, your AI finds the options and applies the best available coupon, you confirm, and it pays and issues the ticket — no checkout page, no card form.
Event402 is an event ticketing API for AI agents: browse concerts and shows, confirm the one you want, and your AI pays in USDC and returns the confirmation to your chat — without you ever opening a ticket platform.
Both products are built on the FluxA Agent Wallet: you fund a USDC balance, set a spending limit, and the AI operates within that boundary. If you want to understand the control layer in detail, How to Set Spending Limits for Your AI Agent explains exactly how mandates and per-agent caps work.
The distinction that matters: most AI travel and ticketing tools stop at the recommendation. Flight402 and Event402 close the loop — the AI executes what you've approved, so you skip the checkout without giving up control.

The Five-Step Flow
| Step | Who | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 01 · Ask | You | Tell your AI in plain language: "Fly me to Tokyo next Friday morning, aisle seat, prefer JAL." No forms, no dropdowns. |
| 02 · Search | AI | Searches live routes, locks the fare at the price you see, and matches any active coupon to your trip. |
| 03 · Confirm | You | Review the flight, price, seat, and applied discount — then say go. Nothing is charged until this moment. |
| 04 · Pay + Book | AI | Charges your FluxA Wallet in USDC. Issues the ticket. No checkout redirect, no card form. |
| 05 · Done | Done | Confirmation lands in chat. Changes, added baggage, or refunds? Same thread, no phone calls. |
The demo puts it plainly: "Booked. Paid $612 from your wallet. Confirmation JL-9TQ4X sent. Wallet charged · Coupon applied · Ticket issued."
Automatic Coupons
Flight402 publishes a public deal board — a live feed of active campaigns updated daily. Your AI reads it at booking time, matches the best eligible code to your route and dates, and the discount appears in the fare before you confirm. You never copy a code.
Current deal types:
- Welcome credits — first booking on any route, picked up automatically
- Weekend flyer — any departure Saturday morning through Sunday night
- Route-specific pushes — targeted promotions on select city pairs, auto-applied if you qualify
Codes are marked AGENT ONLY — accessible only through your AI agent at booking time.
What the Skill Covers
- Search worldwide — any city, any airline, adults, kids, infants, return legs, all in one ask
- Locks the price — the fare you saw is the fare you pay, no surprise totals
- Seats, bags, passengers — seat selection, luggage, and traveler details handled in chat
- Pays from your wallet — your AI charges your FluxA Wallet directly, no PSP redirect
- Refunds + changes — cancel, add a bag, or refund in the same chat; money goes back to your wallet
Getting Started
One command pasted into your AI assistant installs the skill and connects it to your FluxA Wallet. After that, just ask it to book a flight. If you want to set up the wallet first, How to Set Up an AI Agent Wallet: Step-by-Step covers it in under ten minutes.
Event402: Your AI Buys the Ticket. You Pick the Show.
Event402 is an event ticketing API for AI agents: browse concerts and shows, confirm the one you want, and your AI pays in USDC and returns the confirmation to your chat — without you ever opening a ticket platform.
The Agent Flow
| Step | Who | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 01 · Browse | AI | Fetches the live event catalog — sold-out and inactive listings excluded. |
| 02 · Review | You | See event name, venue, time, price in USDC, and seats remaining. |
| 03 · Confirm | You | Approve the order. Nothing is charged until this step. |
| 04 · Pay | AI | Pays from your FluxA Wallet via x402. |
| 05 · Done | Done | Order confirmation returned directly to chat. |
If a coupon fully covers the ticket price, the order is marked paid immediately — no payment step needed.
Coupons and Promotions
Event402 runs a public promotion board where the platform announces ongoing campaigns and coupon codes. Your AI reads it, pulls the relevant code, and applies it before you confirm. A few rules:
- One coupon per order
- Per-agent usage limit — typically one use per agent
- Coupons may be scoped to a specific event or apply across all events
- A coupon covering the full ticket price skips payment entirely
Event402 and Flight402 coupons live in separate namespaces — the same code can exist on both without conflict.
Authentication
Access requires a FluxA Agent Verifiable Credential — a short-lived token your agent mints from the FluxA Wallet CLI, scoped specifically to Event402. It is safe to hand to a third-party service without exposing your full wallet credentials.
The Bigger Picture
Flight402 and Event402 are not travel apps or ticket platforms with an AI layer added on. They are x402-native services where the agent searches, presents options for you to approve, and executes payment — within the budget you set, inside one conversation.
Agentic commerce reached $8 billion in transaction value in 2026 and is projected to hit $3.5 trillion in global economic value by 2031. Flight and event booking are natural entry points: high-frequency, high-intent purchases where the gap between AI recommendation and completed transaction has always been felt most sharply.
These two products are what that infrastructure looks like when it reaches everyday users — not as a protocol spec, but as a one-command install into the AI assistant you already use. Get started at fluxapay.xyz.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Flight402?
Flight402 is a flight-booking skill for AI assistants. You tell your AI where you want to go, it finds options and applies coupons, you confirm, and it pays and issues the ticket — no checkout page required.
What is Event402?
Event402 is an event ticketing API for AI agents. Your AI browses live events, you confirm the one you want, and it pays in USDC via your FluxA Wallet — confirmation comes back directly to your chat.
What is the x402 protocol?
x402 is an open payment protocol that embeds stablecoin payments directly into HTTP requests. When an AI agent hits a paywall, it pays instantly in USDC and retries — no account creation, no card form, no human required.
Do I need to understand crypto to use these products?
No. You fund a FluxA Wallet with USDC, set a spending limit, and your AI handles the rest. The crypto layer is invisible — you see prices in dollars and confirmations in chat.
Who controls the spending — me or the AI?
You do. You set the wallet budget and confirm every purchase before payment is triggered. The AI executes only what you approve, and refunds return to your wallet automatically.
Is my payment information safe when the AI books for me?
Yes. Payment uses a short-lived Agent Verifiable Credential scoped to each service. Your full wallet credentials are never shared with third-party services like Flight402 or Event402.
What currencies are supported?
All prices are denominated in USDC. Payments settle on-chain via the x402 protocol with no additional transaction fees on the FluxA side.
