Security Notice

CRITICAL — this is a read-write MCP server. It can create customers, subscriptions, and invoices using real Stripe API calls. Always use restricted API keys with only the minimum permissions required for your use case. Never use a full secret key — create a restricted key in the Stripe dashboard. Test in Stripe test mode before connecting to live account. Audit all write operations. An AI agent with an unrestricted Stripe key can create real charges and invoices.

The official Stripe MCP server connects AI agents directly to your Stripe account for payment lookups, customer management, subscription queries, and invoice creation. It is read-write — agents can create real Stripe objects. Always use a restricted API key with minimum required permissions and test in Stripe test mode first. Free to use — standard Stripe transaction fees apply to any payments processed.

About Stripe MCP

The official Stripe MCP server from Stripe's agent toolkit connects AI agents directly to your Stripe account for real operational work. Agents can look up customer payment history, identify duplicate charges, retrieve subscription status, create invoices, and manage billing lifecycle through natural language — without opening the Stripe dashboard. The server is read-write, meaning it can create real Stripe objects such as customers, prices, and invoices using live API calls. This power requires careful credential management: always use a restricted API key with only the minimum permissions needed, never a full secret key. Test in Stripe test mode before connecting to a live account. For finance teams, the most valuable use case is cross-referencing Stripe data with CRM and accounting systems — answering questions that previously required opening three dashboards simultaneously.
