MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It's a standard that ChatGPT uses to connect securely to external tools and data, such as your Plug&Pay environment. Via the MCP integration, ChatGPT gets access to a set of actions that you can approve individually.
Examples of actions
ChatGPT can carry out the following actions in Plug&Pay, among others:
Create pages
Edit landing pages
Search for orders
Create a product funnel
Create and add new blocks
Generate images
Adding a plugin
Log in to your ChatGPT account and navigate to Settings > Plugins or click on this link. Click Developer mode at the bottom.
Turn on both toggles for Developer mode and Enforce CSP in developer mode.
Go to https://chatgpt.com/plugins and add a new plugin by clicking the plus icon in the top right.
Click Create app and then Create MCP app.
Fill in Plug&Pay as the name and optionally choose a description and icon. Under Connection, select Server URL and enter the following address:
https://mcp.plugandpay.com/mcp. Set Authentication to OAuth.
Agree to the terms and click Create to add the plugin.
Connecting the integration
