Perplexity

Headless BNPL session generation

Running payment scripts from the command line gives you immediate control over your merchant account. Pipe order amounts into Claude Code, and it generates secure BNPL tokens using `create_checkout`. CI/CD pipelines can validate these flows automatically. The CLI fetches your minimum and maximum transaction limits via `get_afterpay_config` to ensure your automated tests stay within bounds.

Audit payments via MCP Server

SREs investigating settlement issues do not need a browser dashboard. Claude Code pulls historical authorizations straight into your terminal using `list_payments`. If a specific transaction looks suspicious, your agent digs into the logs. Calling `get_payment_details` returns the exact financial status so you can debug backend failures over SSH.

Automate terminal-based refunds

You process bulk returns easily from a shell script. Pass an array of order IDs to your CLI, and it iterates through them to verify remaining balances. The agent triggers `refund_payment` for each valid order. This MCP connection lets DevOps teams resolve customer credit issues without leaving their terminal workspace.

Yes. You can trigger the CLI inside a GitHub Action to process credits automatically. It handles the balance verification and executes the refund without human input.

Your terminal agent calls the payment details tool for specific order IDs. It returns the exact settlement info directly to standard output.
