# Overview

> Make wallet-approved HTTP 402 requests, fund accounts, manage subscriptions, and discover providers.

This section is for people consuming paid APIs: making requests, funding the wallet that signs them, managing recurring charges, and browsing the catalog of providers.

If you're publishing a paid API, jump to [Building with pay](/docs/building-with-pay/getting-started). If you're looking for command syntax, [Commands](/docs/toolchain/commands) is the reference.
