Overview

Float uses a two-layer wallet model: a treasury (your main balance) and individual agent wallets (one per agent). You load USDC once into the treasury. Agents draw from it automatically based on their spending policies.

The treasury wallet

The treasury wallet is a Solana account linked to your owner identity (your Google, Apple, email, or wallet sign-in). It holds your USDC balance and acts as the funding source for all your agents. You can view your treasury address in the Float dashboard or by running:

Agent wallets

Each agent has its own Solana wallet, automatically provisioned when you run npx @usefloat/cli@latest init. The agent wallet:
  • Has its own on-chain address
  • Holds a portion of your USDC (allocated from the treasury)
  • Pays for services directly — the treasury is not touched per payment
This means you can give different agents different budgets and track their spending independently in the Payments view.

Spending policies

Every agent has a policy that governs how much it can spend: Set policies from the Policies page or via the set_policy MCP tool.

How funds move

Steps 2 and 3 happen automatically. You only interact with Step 1 (loading USDC).

Monitoring

Every USDC movement is visible in the Float dashboard:
  • Overview — total balance, all-agents spend, budget utilisation
  • Agents — per-agent balance and lifetime spend
  • Payments — every individual transaction with status
No surprise charges. No hidden fees. Every payment is on-chain and verifiable.
