Claude Code

Run this in your terminal. It adds a user-scoped server; use --scope project instead if it should apply only to the current project.

terminal 
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http stripe https://mcp.stripe.com

What it does

Stripe MCP gives an agent a Stripe-aware connection for payment, subscription and Connect questions. It keeps the API context beside the implementation instead of relying on remembered endpoint names.

  • Look up Stripe API resources.
  • Work with payment and subscription concepts.
  • Use Stripe Connect context when supported.
  • Pass account and object identifiers explicitly.
  • Keep the Stripe key in the authorized server connection.

Skills that ship with it

An agent writing Stripe code from memory reaches for deprecated APIs and the wrong charge pattern for a platform. These skills put Stripe's own guidance in the agent's path. Longwave installs them with the server, and each name below opens the skill's source.

Questions people ask

How do I use Stripe MCP with Claude Code?

Connect the hosted Stripe endpoint in Claude Code and authorize the Stripe account. Claude Code can use the payment and API operations returned by the endpoint.

How do I use Stripe MCP in Cursor?

Add the hosted Stripe connection to Cursor's MCP settings and keep the Stripe credential in the secure server configuration. Cursor can use the returned Stripe operations after authorization.

Does Stripe MCP need a secret key?

Stripe API access requires an authorized Stripe credential. Use a restricted key or account scope when the task does not need broad access.

Can Stripe MCP create a payment?

Only if the authorized endpoint returns a payment write function and the credential allows it. The live function list is the source of truth, not the fact that Stripe is connected.

Can Stripe MCP help with Stripe Connect?

Connect is one of the catalog entry's stated areas. The live endpoint determines which connected-account operations are available.

Can Stripe MCP work with the Stripe API?

Yes. The hosted server provides Stripe-aware API and payment operations. Use the returned resource and identifier fields rather than inventing an endpoint from memory.

Can Stripe MCP work with the Stripe Agent Toolkit?

The Agent Toolkit is a separate Stripe developer offering. This MCP entry can be used alongside it, but it does not turn the toolkit's APIs into automatically available MCP functions.

Does Stripe MCP require login?

Yes. The hosted connection requires Stripe authorization or credentials. Complete the client connection flow and keep the resulting secret out of the prompt.

Put the Stripe API next to the payment code.

Let the agent inspect the real API surface instead of inventing an endpoint from memory.
