Any MPP or x402-compatible client works. With mppx, payment is automatic:

import { Mppx, evm } from 'mppx/client'
import { privateKeyToAccount } from 'viem/accounts'

const mppx = Mppx.create({
  methods: [evm({
    account: privateKeyToAccount(process.env.KEY),
    currencies: [evm.assets.base.USDC],
  })],
})

const res = await mppx.fetch('https://api.meshgateway.co/m/bz-skim402-com/api/v2/read')
// 402 challenge signed and settled automatically; response includes Payment-Receipt
