- Type: remote (Streamable HTTP)
- Auth: OAuth sign-in
- Category: [Finance & Payments](https://mcp.tc/c/finance-payments)
- Vendor: Paddle

## About

Connects an assistant to the Paddle Billing API. It can manage products, prices and discounts, look up customers, addresses and businesses, create and revise transactions, handle subscriptions, adjustments and refunds, configure notification settings, and generate financial reports. It works with Paddle Billing only, not Paddle Classic.

The hosted endpoint at https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp uses OAuth sign-in through Paddle. A live API key sent as an Authorization Bearer header is also accepted. A sandbox endpoint at https://sandbox-mcp.paddle.com/mcp accepts an API key only. A local npm package, @paddle/paddle-mcp, runs with npx and reads PADDLE\_API\_KEY and PADDLE\_ENVIRONMENT.

## What it can do

- Create and update products, prices and discounts
- Look up customers, addresses and businesses
- Create, preview and revise transactions
- Pause, resume, update and cancel subscriptions
- Create adjustments and fetch invoice and credit note PDFs
- Manage notification settings and list events
- Generate financial reports

## Example prompts

- "List all active subscriptions for customer ctm\_123"
- "Create a new product with a monthly price of 20 USD"
- "Preview the cost of upgrading this subscription to the annual plan"
- "Get the PDF invoice for transaction txn\_123"

## Install

### Claude Code

1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http paddle https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code, type `/mcp`, pick **paddle** and choose **Authenticate**. A browser window opens for the Paddle sign-in.

Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.

### Claude Desktop

1. Open **Settings → Connectors** and click **Add custom connector**.

2. Name it **Paddle** and paste this URL:

```url
https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp
```

3. Click **Add**, then **Connect**, and sign in when Paddle asks.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

### claude.ai

1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:

[Add to claude.ai](<https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Paddle&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.paddle.com%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

2. Check that the URL reads `https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp` and click **Add**.

3. Click **Connect** and sign in when Paddle asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**.

### ChatGPT

1. On chatgpt.com, open **Settings → Security and login** and turn on **Developer mode**.

2. Go to `chatgpt.com/plugins` and click **+** to create an app for a remote MCP server.

3. Paste `https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp` as the server URL and choose **OAuth**. ChatGPT sends you to Paddle to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

### Cursor

[Add to Cursor](<https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=paddle&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5wYWRkbGUuY29tL21jcCJ9>) (opens Cursor)

Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paddle": {
      "url": "https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor shows **Needs login** next to the server. Click it to sign in.

### VS Code

[Install in VS Code](<https://vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=paddle&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.paddle.com%2Fmcp%22%7D>) (opens VS Code)

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"paddle","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"}'
```

Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "paddle": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

### Devin Desktop

1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows):

`mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paddle": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers.

### Codex

```bash
codex mcp add paddle --url https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp
codex mcp login paddle
```

Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.paddle]
url = "https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http paddle https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp
```

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run `/mcp auth paddle` to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere.

### Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paddle": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.paddle.com/mcp`.
