The update introduces recurring billing and delegated spending on Solana mainnet, with stated use cases including agent budgets, payroll, subscriptions, API billing, and stablecoin invoices.
Solana Foundation announced native subscriptions and allowances on Solana mainnet, adding built-in support for recurring billing and delegated spending. According to the announcement, the feature is intended for payments such as agent budgets, payroll, subscriptions, API billing, and stablecoin invoices. In practical terms, recurring billing allows scheduled payments on-chain, while delegated spending lets a user authorize limited payment activity for a defined purpose without transferring full wallet control.
