What is Moov?
Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.
Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.
What is Stigg?
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.
Moov vs Stigg: editorial side-by-side
Moov
5.0FINANCE
Moov's issuing and invoicing APIs fill out as platforms take over more of the payments work.
◆ Current state
Moov ships on a versioned API train, with v2026.10.00 still in development. Since September it has added self-serve fixes for ACH authorization errors, a taxable flag in the product catalog, a spending card activity endpoint, invoice reminders and custom invoice numbers, and issuing simulation endpoints for test mode. The summer added FedNow, payout fees and fee plan reassignment.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is self-service for platforms that embed payments: fixing ACH errors without support, running card issuing in test mode, sending invoice reminders automatically. Fee mechanics still matter, but recent releases have widened issuing and invoicing. The API usually gets each capability first, with the Dashboard following.
◆ Prediction
Expect v2026.10.00 to leave development with the ACH self-serve and isTaxable changes, and the Dashboard to pick up more issuing views. The entries give no date for that release.
Stigg
7.5FINANCE
Stigg moves its entitlements and credit checks inside agent orchestrators and gateways.
◆ Current state
Stigg now runs inside agent orchestration layers, applying entitlements, credits and budgets to each step of an agent run, and its Agent SDK supports solo.io and agentgateway out of the box. It also lets customers bill subscriptions through Airwallex invoices and payment links. This lands a day after new pricing with a free plan and monthly billing, and three days after Usage Governance went GA.
◆ Where it's heading
Stigg is placing its billing engine at the points where AI agents spend money: the orchestrator, the gateway and credit reservation before each operation. Billing-backend breadth, now Airwallex invoicing, keeps pace in the background.
◆ Prediction
Expect more gateway and orchestrator integrations in the Agent SDK and its move out of beta. Billing backends will likely keep widening around Airwallex and its peers.
