Privy provides authentication and wallet infrastructure for apps built on crypto rails. Embed self-custodial wallets, authenticate users via email/SMS/socials/passkeys/wallets, and transact on EVM and Solana chains. Also supports agent payment protocols (x402, MPP) and autonomous agentic wallets.

Import createConfig and WagmiProvider from @privy-io/wagmi (NOT from wagmi).
npm i @privy-io/react-auth @privy-io/wagmi wagmi @tanstack/react-query
import {PrivyProvider} from '@privy-io/react-auth';
import {WagmiProvider, createConfig} from '@privy-io/wagmi';
import {QueryClient, QueryClientProvider} from '@tanstack/react-query';
import {mainnet, base} from 'viem/chains';
import {http} from 'wagmi';
const queryClient = new QueryClient();
const wagmiConfig = createConfig({
chains: [mainnet, base],
transports: {[mainnet.id]: http(), [base.id]: http()}
});
// Nesting order: PrivyProvider > QueryClientProvider > WagmiProvider
export default function Providers({children}: {children: React.ReactNode}) {
return (
<PrivyProvider appId="your-app-id" config={privyConfig}>
<QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
<WagmiProvider config={wagmiConfig}>{children}</WagmiProvider>
</QueryClientProvider>
</PrivyProvider>
);
}
Use wagmi hooks (useAccount, useSendTransaction, etc.) for read/write actions. Use Privy hooks for wallet connection/creation.
npm i @privy-io/node
import {PrivyClient} from '@privy-io/node';
const privy = new PrivyClient({
appId: process.env.PRIVY_APP_ID!,
appSecret: process.env.PRIVY_APP_SECRET!
});
// Verify access token from Authorization header
// (top-level privy.verifyAuthToken is deprecated - use utils().auth())
const {userId} = await privy.utils().auth().verifyAccessToken(accessToken);
All auth flows can be fully whitelabeled with custom UI. Key hooks:
| Hook | Auth method |
|---|---|
useLoginWithEmail | Email OTP (sendCode, loginWithCode) |
useLoginWithSms | SMS OTP |
useLoginWithOAuth | Social logins (initOAuth({provider: 'google'})) |
useLoginWithPasskey | Passkeys |
useSignupWithPasskey | Passkey signup |
useLoginWithTelegram | Telegram |
useLogin | General login with callbacks |
Footgun: whitelabel flows (useLoginWithEmail, etc.) call Privy directly from the app domain, so they silently fail if that domain is not in the Dashboard's Allowed Origins/Domains - the hosted modal (usePrivy().login()) still works, masking the issue. Add every local dev port (e.g. localhost:5173) too. useLoginWithEmail's onError returns a rich object, not {message} - log the whole thing to see the real rejection.
Built into @privy-io/react-auth since v3.7.0. Handles HTTP 402 payment flows automatically using USDC.
import {useX402Fetch, useWallets} from '@privy-io/react-auth';
function PaidContent() {
const {wallets} = useWallets();
const {wrapFetchWithPayment} = useX402Fetch();
const fetchContent = async () => {
const fetchWithPayment = wrapFetchWithPayment({
walletAddress: wallets[0]?.address,
fetch,
maxValue: BigInt(1000000) // Max 1 USDC
});
const res = await fetchWithPayment('https://api.example.com/premium');
return res.json();
};
}
Server-side (Node.js):
import {createX402Client} from '@privy-io/node/x402';
import {wrapFetchWithPayment} from '@x402/fetch';
const x402client = createX402Client(privy, {walletId: wallet.id, address: wallet.address});
const fetchWithPayment = wrapFetchWithPayment(fetch, x402client);
const response = await fetchWithPayment('https://api.example.com/premium');
MPP (Machine Payments Protocol) settles on Tempo using stablecoins (PathUSD, USDC, or others). Supports sessions for high-frequency payments.
import {Mppx, tempo} from 'mppx/client';
// Create Privy-backed viem account (see references/agent-payments.md for full pattern)
const account = createPrivyAccount(wallet.id, wallet.address);
const mppx = Mppx.create({polyfill: false, methods: [tempo({account})]});
const response = await mppx.fetch('https://api.example.com/weather');
Server-controlled wallets with policy-based constraints for autonomous agents.
// Create agent wallet
const wallet = await privy.wallets().create({chain_type: 'ethereum'});
// Execute transactions - validated against attached policies
const {hash} = await privy.wallets().ethereum().sendTransaction(wallet.id, {
caip2: 'eip155:8453',
params: {transaction: {to: '0x...', value: '0x1', chain_id: 8453}}
});
Two control models: agent-controlled (fully autonomous, developer-owned) and user-owned with agent signers (user retains revocation authority). See references/agent-auth.md for policy examples and setup.

Gives Claude Code its own EVM wallet with admin-defined policies enforced at the tool layer, preventing prompt injection-based theft. Features encrypted keystore and policy gate.
Wires Alchemy into application code without an API key, using x402/MPP gateway with wallet-based auth (SIWE/SIWS) and per-request payments (USDC or credit card).
