# Get a card

> Authoritative card state. While the card is `open` it carries `credentials` (number, expiry, CVC) to key into the checkout. Each read of an open card notifies the member that the credentials were accessed, so fetch once when you are ready to pay rather than polling; poll [flow status](/companies/api/reference/member-flow-status) instead.

Authoritative card state. An `open` card carries `credentials` (number,
expiry, CVC) to key into the checkout.

Every read of an open card notifies the member that its credentials were
accessed. Fetch once when you are ready to pay; for progress, poll
[flow status](/companies/api/reference/member-flow-status) instead. Never
persist the credentials.

info:
  title: Agentcard API
  version: 2.0.0
  description: >-
    The Agentcard v2 API — connect your users and verify their identity from
    your own backend. Every call is authenticated with a platform access token
    minted from your `client_id` + `client_secret`.
servers:
  - url: https://api.agentcard.sh
    description: >-
      There is one base URL. Sandbox vs production is decided by the client
      credential you use, never by the host.
security:
  - platformToken: []
tags:
  - name: Authentication
    description: >-
      Exchange your client credentials for a platform access token, and
      introspect what a token acts as.
  - name: Connect
    description: >-
      Connect a user to your platform: send a one-time code, verify it, record
      consent, and keep the connection alive.
  - name: Identity verification
    description: >-
      Verify a connected user's identity: upload their ID, submit any extra
      fields we ask for, then show a short face scan.
  - name: Wallet funding
    description: >-
      Fund a connected user's wallet from your own UI — request a payment link,
      relay the phone verification code, and poll until the funds land.
  - name: Withdrawals
    description: >-
      Move money out of a connected user's wallet — to a saved bank account or a
      crypto address on Base. Transfers are processed manually by the Agentcard
      team, usually within 1-3 business days.
