Agents and AI on Stripe
Give an AI agent access to Stripe, and build products that agents can use.
Give your agent access to the Stripe developer tools, live account data, and up-to-date technical guidance to help you build on Stripe. You can also build products and services for agents: charge for AI features, sell through agents, and accept payments from agents.
Build with AI tools
Install the agent plugin, which bundles the Stripe MCP server and agent skills and automatically updates them as needed.
If your agent doesn’t support plugins, combine the Stripe MCP server and agent skills yourself. For Workbench, the Stripe SDKs, the Stripe CLI, and other tools you use directly, see Developer resources.
Agent plugins for Stripe: Give your agent access to the latest Stripe guidance and live account data.
MCP server: Let your agent interact with Stripe resources from any MCP-compatible client.
Agent skills: Install instructions that help agents create more accurate Stripe integrations and apply recommended practices.
How agents work with Stripe: Understand how AI agents interact with Stripe APIs, billing, and commerce.
Stripe Projects: Set up and manage third-party services such as hosting, databases, authentication, and observability using the Stripe CLI.
Analyze your data with AI: Use an agent to query metrics, run financial reports, and analyze your Stripe data.
Machine-readable resources
MCP server (https://mcp.stripe.com): Use any MCP-compatible client to interact with the Stripe API and search documentation.
Plain-text docs: Append .md to any docs.stripe.com URL (for example, https://docs.stripe.com/agents.md) for Markdown output.
Skills catalog (https://docs.stripe.com/.well-known/skills/index.json): Machine-readable index of installable agent skills. Use stripe agent setup for the recommended Stripe agent setup.
Build AI products with Stripe
Charge for the AI features you offer, and let agents buy and sell on behalf of your customers. Discovery starts with the Stripe Directory, a single index of businesses and services that agents and people can search.
Agentic commerce overview: Enable commerce between buyers and sellers through AI agents.
Sell through agents: Make your services and product catalogs readable by agents.
Accept payments from agents: Accept payments initiated by AI agents and automated systems.
Build an agent: Present product feeds, manage carts, and accept payments as an agent.
Billing for LLM tokens: Usage-based billing for metered resources like LLM tokens or API calls.
