# MPP / Tempo
The Nansen API supports three paid-access rails: API key, x402 (handled by `nansen-cli`), and MPP via Tempo (handled by the **separate** [tempo CLI](https://docs.tempo.xyz)). This skill covers the third.
`nansen-cli` does **not** sign MPP credentials. Use this skill when the user wants to call the Nansen API through `tempo request` because they already use tempo, want micropayments without managing wallet keys themselves, or don't want to fund a Base/Solana USDC wallet.
For API-key auth, see `nansen-wallet-manager`. For x402 micropayment with a local wallet, see `nansen-trading` / `nansen-wallet-manager`.
## When to use this skill
- User says "MPP", "tempo", "Authorization: Payment", or "Payment-Receipt".
- User has no Nansen API key and doesn't want to set up a Base/Solana wallet.
- User is already paying for other APIs through tempo and wants Nansen on the same rail.
## One-time setup
```bash
# 1. Install the tempo CLI
curl -fsSL https://tempo.xyz/install | bash
# 2. Log in (creates / unlocks the tempo wallet)
tempo wallet login
# 3. Fund it with USDC on the chain tempo selects for your environment
tempo wallet fund
# 4. Confirm the wallet is ready
tempo wallet whoami
```
## Calling the Nansen API
`tempo request` handles the full MPP challenge/response: it sends the request, signs the `Authorization: Payment` credential when the API responds 402 + `WWW-Authenticate: Payment ...`, retries, and exposes the `Payment-Receipt` header on success.
```bash
