# Funding your wallet

> How to add USDC to your AgentCash wallet.

You need USDC in your wallet to make paid API calls. There are several ways to fund it.

## Get free credits

The fastest way to get started is through the onboarding flow:

<Card title="Get free credits" icon="gift" href="https://agentcash.dev/onboard">
  Onboard at agentcash.dev/onboard to get up to \$25 in free credits.
</Card>

Or onboard from the terminal:

```bash theme={null}
npx agentcash onboard
```

## Redeem an invite code

If you have an invite code, ask your agent:

> Redeem invite code `YOUR_CODE` with AgentCash.

Or use the CLI:

```bash theme={null}
npx agentcash redeem YOUR_CODE
```

Invite codes are one-time use and deposit USDC directly to your wallet on Base.

## Deposit USDC directly

Open the guided funding flow:

```bash theme={null}
npx agentcash fund
```

Or, if you need the deposit links and addresses for each supported network:

```bash theme={null}
npx agentcash accounts
```

You can also visit `agentcash.dev/deposit/<your-address>` for a guided funding experience with options for bridging from other chains and on-ramps.

<Note>
  Base is the default network for AgentCash payments and most endpoints accept USDC on Base. Your wallet also holds USDC on Solana. Fund that address only if you plan to call endpoints that require Solana. Run `npx agentcash accounts` to see deposit links for every supported network.
</Note>

## Minimum balance

There is no minimum balance requirement. Each API call costs a specific amount of USDC (typically $0.001 to $0.10 per request). AgentCash checks your balance before each payment and warns you if funds are insufficient.
