What is an MCP?
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It's a standard that Claude uses to connect securely to external tools and data, such as your Plug&Pay environment. Via the MCP integration, Claude gets access to a set of actions that you can approve individually.
Examples of actions
Once you've connected Claude to your Plug&Pay, you can carry out the following actions, among others:
Create checkouts and landing pages
Edit checkouts and landing pages
Search for orders
Create a product funnel
Create and add new blocks
Rewrite texts
Generate images
Adding a custom connector
Log in to your Claude account and open the following link: https://claude.ai/new#settings/customize-connectors.
You'll land directly on the Connectors page in the settings for Claude. Click Add in the top right and choose Add custom connector.
Enter Plug&Pay as the name. Enter the following for the URL:
https://mcp.plugandpay.com/mcp
Then click Add to save the connector.
Connecting the integration
You'll now see the Plug&Pay connector with a message saying you're not yet connected. Click Connect to start the connection.
A window titled Authorize Claude appears. Here you give Claude permission to use the Plug&Pay MCP server. Click Authorize to confirm.
Using Claude in Plug&Pay
Now that Claude is connected, you can carry out actions in your Plug&Pay environment. Start a new chat and click the plus icon. Choose Plug&Pay here and type your prompt.
Depending on the permissions Claude has, it can now carry out actions in your Plug&Pay account.
Changing permissions
Navigate to Settings > Connectors in Claude and choose Plug&Pay. In the overview, you'll see the available actions under Tool permissions, split into read actions (Read-only tools) and write and delete actions (Write/delete tools).
Here you decide which actions Claude can carry out in your Plug&Pay account.
By default, every action is set to Needs approval, which means you give permission each time before Claude does something.
Decide for each item whether Claude has permission for this or should always ask for permission.
