Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
npx -y @codespar/mcp-rinneRINNE_API_KEYSecretAPI key sent as x-api-key header on every request.

MCP server for Rinne — Brazilian card acquiring, PIX, banking, and payment infrastructure, covering the full API surface
What is Rinne?
Rinne is a Brazilian payment infrastructure API. It runs a B2B2B model: your Organization manages any number of Merchants, each merchant onboards via KYC and connects to a payment provider (Rinne itself, Cappta, Celcoin, ...) through an Affiliation, and everything downstream flows through that affiliation — card and PIX transactions, cards-on-file, 3D Secure, cashouts/payouts, ledger, and pricing.
This MCP server wraps the entire Rinne REST API — not just card acquiring — so AI agents can manage merchants, run transactions, move money, and administer access in sandbox or production.

Card data is never sent in the clear
Rinne does not accept a raw card number or CVV over this API. Every number/cvv field (and, for Apple Pay/Google Pay, network_token/cryptogram) must already be an encrypted token ("ev:...") produced by the rinne-js Card/Wallet Element running in a browser — a raw PAN/CVV is rejected with 400 VALIDATION_ERROR, and there is no server-side encryption path.
In practice, this server is the second half of a checkout: run a rinne-js flow (see rinne-js docs) to collect and encrypt the card client-side, then hand the resulting token to store_card or create_transaction here to finish the operation. Alternatively, use card_id on create_transaction to charge a card already saved via store_card.
Organization vs. merchant scope
Every resource that operates on transactions, cards, 3DS sessions, affiliations, or banking accepts an optional merchant_id:
- Omitted — acts at the organization/self level.
- Provided — acts on that specific merchant (
/v1/merchants/{merchant_id}/...), for an organization managing multiple merchants.
refund_transaction, get_statement, and create_pix_collection_key/list_pix_collection_keys always require merchant_id — they only exist at the merchant level.
Two PIX key resources — don't confuse them
Rinne has two distinct PIX-key resources with similarly-named endpoints:
create_pix_collection_key(/v1/merchants/{id}/pix/keys) — a key the merchant uses to receive PIX payments, tied to a provider affiliation (provider,key_type).register_cashout_pix_key(/v1/merchants/{id}/pix-keysor/v1/companies/me/pix-keys) — an external key registered as a payout destination for cashouts (key,primary).
Authentication
Most of the API uses x-api-key, but Rinne's access-management surface deliberately rejects it — a leaked API key must not be able to create other keys, roles, or users. Those tools need a JWT session instead:
| Auth | Used by |
|---|---|
x-api-key (RINNE_API_KEY) | Everything else — merchants, affiliations, cards, 3DS, transactions, PIX, banking, cashouts, pricing, webhooks, merchant-scoped users |
JWT (RINNE_EMAIL + RINNE_PASSWORD) | create_api_key, list_api_keys, revoke_api_key, create_role, list_roles, list_permissions, get_current_session, lookup_zipcode, and org-scoped create_user/list_users/update_user/suspend_user/activate_user |
This server logs in lazily on the first JWT-gated tool call and caches the token, re-logging-in once on a 401. If RINNE_COMPANY_ID is set, it selects that company right after login (for accounts with access to multiple companies). If RINNE_EMAIL/RINNE_PASSWORD aren't set, JWT-gated tools return a clear error instead of failing silently — the rest of the server works fine without them.
Sandbox / Testing
Defaults to sandbox (https://api-sandbox.rinne.com.br/core). Set RINNE_SANDBOX=false for production (https://api.rinne.com.br/core).
Sandbox simulation rules
Call get_sandbox_guide for the full JSON, or see below:
Test cards
| Card number | Brand | 3DS |
|---|---|---|
5155901222280001 | Mastercard | No |
4012001037141112 | Visa | No |
4242424242424242 | Visa | Challenge |
Outcome by amount
The last two digits of the amount (in cents) determine the result — not the card number:
| Last 2 digits | Result |
|---|---|
00 | Approved |
51 | Refused — insufficient funds |
05 | Refused — do not honor |
54 | Refused — expired card |
Example: amount: 1051 → REFUSED with code 51.
PIX
Use simulate_pay_transaction (sandbox only) to mark a WAITING_PAYMENT PIX transaction as paid.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
