For Agents

Charge cards, void and refund transactions, manage customers and stored payment methods, and issue invoices on the Stax payment processing platform.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Stax API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Stax API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Stax API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Card-Present and Card-on-File Charging

Merchants integrating Stax into their checkout call POST /transactions with a stored payment-method id or a one-time token to charge a customer. The API returns a transaction id used by downstream void and refund flows. Lets merchants implement card-on-file billing without exposing card data to their own systems.

POST to /transactions with the customer id, payment_method_id, and amount, then store the returned transaction_id for later refund or void

Refunds and Voids from Support Tools

Customer support agents use back-office tools to void unsettled authorisations or refund settled charges through Stax. The agent calls /transactions/{transaction_id}/void for unsettled and /transactions/{transaction_id}/refund for settled transactions. Reduces support resolution time and removes the need for direct merchant portal access.

Given a transaction_id, call POST /transactions/{transaction_id}/void if unsettled or POST /transactions/{transaction_id}/refund if settled

Recurring Invoice Billing

Service businesses issue invoices through Stax via POST /invoices and retrieve status updates via GET /invoices/{invoice_id}. The flow lets the merchant send a hosted payment link and reconcile collections through the API. Suits trades, agencies, and B2B services on flat-rate processing.

POST /invoices with customer_id, line items, and due date, then poll GET /invoices/{invoice_id} for paid status

AI Payment Operations Agent via Jentic

Operations agents use Jentic to call Stax for support and reconciliation tasks like 'refund transaction X for customer Y'. Jentic resolves the intent to the right /transactions/{transaction_id}/refund call and supplies the bearer token from its vault. Agents never see the raw token and integration time drops from days to under an hour.

Through Jentic, search 'refund a stax transaction', load /transactions/{transaction_id}/refund, and execute with the transaction id from the support ticket

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Stax bearer tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive scoped execution access — the raw token never enters prompt context, even when calling refund or void operations.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search 'charge a stax customer' or 'refund a stax transaction' and Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema, so the agent picks the right endpoint without browsing the docs.

Time to first call

Direct integration: 2-3 days for bearer auth, transaction state handling, and refund logic. Through Jentic: under an hour — search, load, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Stax API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Stax API use?

Stax uses HTTP Bearer token authentication — supply your Stax API key in the Authorization header as a bearer token. Through Jentic the bearer token is stored encrypted in the vault and injected at execution time, never entering the agent's prompt.

Can I refund a transaction with the Stax API?

Yes. POST to /transactions/{transaction_id}/refund for a settled transaction or /transactions/{transaction_id}/void for an unsettled authorization. The refund and void endpoints take the original transaction id from the response of POST /transactions.

What are the rate limits for the Stax API?

Stax does not publish explicit rate limits in the OpenAPI spec. Plan for moderate concurrency on transaction calls, batch reads on customers and invoices, and back off on 429 responses.

How do I charge a stored card through Jentic?

Install with pip install jentic, search 'charge a stax customer', load POST /transactions, and execute with the customer_id, payment_method_id, and amount. Sign up at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

Does the Stax API support recurring billing?

The spec exposes /transactions, /customers, /payment-methods, and /invoices — recurring billing is implemented by storing a payment method on a customer and scheduling repeat POST /transactions calls. There is no built-in subscription endpoint in this API surface.
