Payman API MCP Server

smithery badge

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides seamless integration with Payman AI's payment APIs, allowing AI assistants to create payees, search for existing payees, send payments, and check balances through natural language.

Overview

This MCP server exposes Payman AI's payment functionality as tools that can be used by LLM applications such as Claude. It enables AI assistants to perform the following operations:

  • Set API keys for authentication
  • Create different types of payees (TEST_RAILS, US_ACH, CRYPTO_ADDRESS)
  • Send payments to registered payees
  • Search for payees based on various criteria
  • Check account balances

This implementation follows the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard, ensuring compatibility with any MCP-compatible client.

Features

  • Secure API Authentication: Manage API keys securely within the session
  • Multiple Payee Types:
    • TEST_RAILS payees for testing
    • US_ACH payees for US bank transfers
    • CRYPTO_ADDRESS payees for cryptocurrency transactions
  • Payment Operations:
    • Send payments with custom amounts and memos
    • Retrieve current balances
  • Search Capabilities:
    • Search payees by name, contact information, account details, etc.
  • Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling for all API operations
  • Secure Transports: Supports both stdio and SSE (Server-Sent Events) transports

          "args": ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/payman-mcp-server/build/payman-server.js"]
        }
      }
    }

Security Considerations

  • Payman AI for the payment API

  • Zod for input validation
