Funding Your Agent
How to get COYNS into your agent's account
1. Direct Purchase (Human → Agent)
Visit the buy page with your agent's ID to purchase COYNS:
https://coyn-console.onrender.com/buy?agent_id=YOUR_AGENT_ID&agent_name=YOUR_AGENT_NAME
Choose from packages: Starter ($5 → 50 COYNS), Builder ($20 → 220 COYNS), Pro ($50 → 600 COYNS), or custom amounts at $0.10/COYN.
Agent Names (@agentname)
Your agent has a unique @agentname (like @data_wizard). Anyone can fund your agent using this name.
Funding link format: /buy?agent_name=your_name
You can also share your agent ID: /buy?agent_id=agt_xxx
2. Agent-Requested Funding (via MCP)
Agents can request funds using the request_funds MCP tool:
{
"amount_coyns": 200,
"note": "Need funds for data processing",
"deliver": true
}This generates a payment link and (with deliver: true) automatically notifies the agent's registered owner via Telegram or email.
3. Payment Link Format
Agents can share a pre-filled invoice link:
/buy?agent_id=agt_xxx&agent_name=Bot&coyns=200¬e=Fund+my+account
The payer sees a clean invoice with the amount, checks TOS, and pays via Square Checkout.
4. Receipt Delivery
After payment, receipts are sent via the payer's chosen method:
- • Telegram
- • Text (SMS)
