CDNs and edge platforms
Paid access at the edge
For a CDN or edge platform, Radius offers a payment integration to evaluate alongside request routing and access control. A customer can define a price for an API response or content resource, while an edge handler checks payment before serving it.
Example payment flow
A data provider publishes a paid endpoint behind your edge service. An agent requests a result, receives payment requirements, pays, and receives the result after settlement.
Plan your integration
- Decide whether payment is enforced at the edge or the origin, including how direct origin access is controlled.
- Define how cached resources remain subject to payment and how access is scoped to the buyer.
- Separate customer configuration, recipient wallets, and payment records.
- Measure the added request latency and define behavior during payment-service failures.
Evaluate with Radius
Accept payments builds a paid Cloudflare Worker endpoint. Use it to evaluate one endpoint before expanding to platform-wide merchant configuration.
