An x402 payment address is a destination, not a custody policy.
x402.jobs documents both linking an endpoint you host elsewhere and hosting a resource on the platform. Those deserve separate custody checks.
In its published hosted-resource code, payTo comes from the creator's x402_user_wallets row. The wallet UI describes those wallets as "embedded wallets managed by x402.jobs". An on-chain payment can still land in a wallet managed by a service.
If you're selling an API, document who can sign from the receiving wallet and how you recover the money without the website. Registering an external endpoint doesn't answer those questions either.
Static source check, pinned below; I haven't exercised signup, settlement or withdrawal, or proved these files match the live deployment.
