Hosting Signup

Sign up for a managed Pry instance in four steps. The whole flow is crypto-native — no account, no card, no KYC.

Step 1 — Create an invoice​

Call the signup endpoint with your plan tier (pro, team, or enterprise):

curl -X POST https://api.pryscraper.com/v1/hosting/signup \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"plan": "pro"}'

Response:

{
  "invoice_id": "inv_01J9...",
  "plan": "pro",
  "amount": "49.00",
  "asset": "USDC",
  "chain": "base",
  "payment_address": "0x...",
  "expires_at": "2026-09-01T12:00:00Z"
}

The invoice contains a payment address and is valid for a limited window — pay before it expires or request a new one.

Step 2 — Pay via x402​

Send the exact amount to the payment_address from any wallet:

  • USDC on Base (preferred)
  • ETH on Ethereum
  • SOL on Solana

Then submit the transaction to confirm it, the same way x402 pay-per-call payments are verified:

curl -X POST https://api.pryscraper.com/v1/hosting/pay \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"invoice_id": "inv_01J9...", "tx_hash": "0x..."}'

Pry verifies the transaction on-chain (via the facilitator router, or EIP-7702 self-verify — see x402 Pay-per-call).

Step 3 — Receive your API key​

Once the payment confirms, the signup response (or a follow-up status call) returns your credentials:

{
  "status": "active",
  "api_key": "pry_live_...",
  "endpoint": "https://api.pryscraper.com",
  "plan": "pro",
  "renews_at": "2026-10-01T00:00:00Z"
}

Store the API key securely — it authenticates every request against your instance.

Step 4 — Start scraping​

Use the key on any endpoint:

curl https://api.pryscraper.com/v1/scrape \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer pry_live_..." \
  -d '{"url": "https://example.com"}'

All 15 data domains and 76 MCP tools are available on your instance. See the API Reference for the full surface.
