Hi Web Payments WG (CC the WCIG), I recently submitted the following Internet Draft for consideration by the HTTP working group at IETF: https://adrianhopebailie.github.io/http-payments/http-payments.html TL;DR: Pass payment requests in HTTP headers to allow for non-interactive payments (IoT, paid APIs and other use cases are the obvious ones). I plan on attending IETF 100 and soliciting interest in this work from the HTTP WG. In discussing this with the chairs of the HTTP WG they suggested we establish a formal liaison on this and provide some public expression of interest that will encourage the HTTP WG participants to contribute to the work. As such, I am proposing that we include this for consideration in our rechartering discussions next week. Specifically I would like to include in the new charter that we will explore non-interactive use cases and mechanisms for using the work we have done to date to define standards around these. Also that we will work with the HTTP WG to define an appropriate protocol for using the 402 (Payment Required) http response code, currently defined as "Reserved for Future Use". Adrian
