How vet402 is operated
vet402 (formerly known as Vouch) is developed and operated by KIZUNA Creation, a sole proprietorship established in Japan. The product was renamed in August 2026; the operator, the service, and these pages are otherwise unchanged. It is built for agent developers who need to verify an x402 endpoint before paying it, and for the service operators who accept those payments. Anyone can create an account and pay for a plan from the dashboard, so the disclosure below applies to the paid plans.
Disclosure under Japan's Act on Specified Commercial Transactions
- Seller
- KIZUNA Creation (trade name of a sole proprietorship established in Japan)
- Person responsible for operations, address, and telephone number
- We will provide these without delay on request (proviso to Article 11 of the Act). Ask by email at support@vet402.com and we reply by email. No reason for the request is needed.
- Contact
- support@vet402.com (email)
- Price
- Free: US$0 per month (1,000 lookups a month)
- Pro: US$49 per month (50,000 lookups a month)
- Scale: US$199 per month (500,000 lookups a month)
Prices are in US dollars. The listed price is the full amount charged each month; no tax is added on top at checkout. The price that applies is the one shown on the Billing page when you pay.
- Other charges
- None from vet402. Currency-conversion or other fees your card issuer charges, and the cost of your internet connection, are yours.
- Payment method
- Payment through Stripe Checkout (payment card, and any other method Stripe offers on that page). We do not see or store card numbers.
- When you pay
- The first month is charged when you complete Stripe Checkout. The subscription then renews automatically every month and is charged in advance at the start of each monthly period until you cancel. If you switch between Pro and Scale, Stripe prorates the difference on your next invoice (a charge for an upgrade, a credit for a downgrade).
- When the service is provided
- The paid monthly quota applies to your account as soon as Stripe tells us the payment succeeded. The Billing page shows the new plan once that notice arrives.
- Cancellation
- Cancel at any time from Billing → "Manage subscription" (the Stripe customer portal). There is no cancellation fee. The paid quota continues until the end of the current period, then the account returns to Free.
- Refunds
- The service is digital and is provided as soon as payment succeeds, so we do not refund unused lookups or unused time on a cancelled period, except where the law requires a refund. Details are in section 16 of the Terms.
- Operating environment
- API: any HTTPS client. Dashboard: a current version of a major web browser with JavaScript and cookies enabled (one strictly necessary login cookie; see the Privacy Policy).
Relationships: grants and prizes received
vet402 calls itself an independent measurement. So that you can judge that for yourself, these are the grants, prizes and funding vet402 has received as of September 29, 2026, including from parties connected to networks or payment companies whose payments we measure. vet402 also applies to ecosystem grant programs and enters hackathons; a row is added here when money or a prize is received.
ETHOnline 2026 (ETHGlobal) — Bazantic prize
vet402's pre-payment gate payOrRefuse won the prize “Help an Agent Use Your Hackathon Project” (500 USDC), announced 2026-09-17.
Status: Awarded
Separately, vet402 pays ordinary list prices to the businesses it uses: it buys from x402 sellers with its own funds to produce the measurement record, pays network fees on each chain, and bills paid plans through Stripe, one of the companies behind Tempo, a network we measure. None of these is funding.
Our rule: no grant, prize, application or payment changes how we measure. The same published methodology and publication gate apply to each endpoint whoever the seller, the network or the funder is.
Why the proprietor's personal details are not on this page
The operator's trade name is disclosed above. The proprietor's legal name, home address and phone number are kept off this public page, as many independent developers do, and are provided without delay to anyone who asks by email, as the disclosure above says.
Contact / disclosure requests
For support, billing questions, or to request operator disclosure details, email support@vet402.com. We aim to respond within a few business days.
