Payments on NEARCheckout pays in Circle's USDC on NEAR testnet, through x402. The Agentic Transaction Record's fingerprint travels in the transfer's memo.
DEMONSTRATION Unsold Stock Travel is not a real company and books no rooms. It shows what changes when a booking's terms are signed into its payment, with the Legal Context Protocol. Payments are test USDC, which has no value.

Rooms that would otherwise sit empty

Tonight's unsold rooms, up to 73% off.

Hotels sell us the rooms they cannot fill. You get the price. And because the booking's terms are signed into your payment, the rate you paid is the rate you get, even when the front desk says it is "not in the system".

Phileas Fogg, Paris, 11:40 pm

"Monsieur, we don't have that rate in our system."

✓ The booked price stands

“If the hotel asks for more than the booked price for the same room and dates, the booked price stands.”

The story

Phileas Fogg arrives in Paris at 11:40 pm.

  1. Fogg is going around the world on a wager, and cannot lose a night. His valet's AI agent, Passepartout, books an unsold twin room at Montparnasse Central for $194.99, signing the booking's terms with the payment.
  2. At the desk: "Monsieur, that rate is not in our system. Tonight it is $512."
  3. Passepartout shows the booking. Its Agentic Transaction Record names the hotel, the room, the dates, the price and the terms by their fingerprint; the payment signed it.
  4. The terms' section 3 is quoted back: the booked price stands. The desk checks the record in seconds.

No argument, no midnight phone call. Fogg sleeps, and keeps his schedule. Try the front desk

So what? Why signed terms matter for a discounted room

A discount booking today

  • The rate lives in a reseller's database the hotel cannot see.
  • At the desk: "that rate isn't in our system", "we're overbooked", "you'll have to pay the difference".
  • You argue at midnight, with a screenshot. The reseller's support line is closed.
  • If an AI agent booked it, nobody can say what was actually promised.

A booking with LCP

  • The booking's Agentic Transaction Record names the hotel, room, dates, price and the terms by their SHA-256.
  • Your payment signs it; the hotel's own rules for "what if we can't honour it" are in those terms.
  • At the desk, the booking proves itself in seconds, and the terms say what happens.
  • Agents can book discounted stock safely: what they agreed to is a record, not a memory.
For hotelsSell unsold rooms through any agent or reseller, with the rules for problems agreed up front.
For travel sellersFewer midnight disputes and chargebacks; every booking carries its own proof.
For guests and their agentsThe rate you paid is the rate you get, and you can prove it anywhere.
