- 02List charges, optionally by customer
- 03Filter subscriptions by customer or status
- 04Retrieve the current account balance
- 05Filter invoices by customer or status
Use cases
- 01Review Stripe customers and their payment charges
- 02Check subscription status and billing periods
- 03Verify account balance and invoice status
MCP support
It exposes read-only Stripe data tools to MCP clients through the Pipeworx gateway or as a local stdio MCP server; users provide their own Stripe API key.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

Stripe MCP Pack — read-only access to Stripe data via API key.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1683+ live data sources.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
stripe_list_customers | List Stripe customers. Supports pagination. |
stripe_get_customer | Get a Stripe customer by ID. |
stripe_list_charges | List Stripe payment charges for your account, optionally filtered by customer ID. Returns charge ID, amount, currency, status, and timestamp. Supports limit (1-100) pagination. |
stripe_list_subscriptions | List subscriptions on a Stripe account via the Stripe API (api.stripe.com/v1/subscriptions), authenticated with a Stripe secret or restricted key passed as _apiKey, with optional customer id and status filters (active, canceled, past_due, trialing, unpaid) and a limit of 1-100. Returns each subscription id, customer, price and plan items, status, and current period start and end. Answers who is subscribed to a Stripe billing plan and on what terms. |

stripe_list_invoices | List Stripe invoices, optionally filtered by customer ID and/or status (draft, open, paid, void, uncollectible). Returns invoice ID, amount due, due date, and payment status. |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"stripe_connect": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/stripe_connect/mcp"
}
}
}
What this endpoint actually serves
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/stripe_connect/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1683+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
No MCP client? Call it over HTTP
This pack takes your own API key (_apiKey) — we don't front one for it, so there's no curl here that would run without it. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/stripe_list_customers. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.
Standalone (no gateway account)
This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:
{
"mcpServers": {
"stripe_connect": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-stripe_connect"]
}
}
}
Or run it directly to confirm it starts:
npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-stripe_connect
It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call
for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway
connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Stripe_connect data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.

New to MCP?
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.
