How to Use the Afterpay MCP in Cursor

Q: What's the process for connecting the Afterpay MCP server to Cursor?

You add the server's connection details to the mcp.json file in your project's .cursor directory. Once it's saved, the Afterpay tools become available to Cursor's agent immediately.

Inject live Afterpay payment data and build refund logic directly into your code with Cursor's agent.

Perplexity

Code with Real Afterpay Data

Stop working with stale, mocked-up payment data. Tell the Cursor agent to fetch a specific order with `get_payment_details` or a list of recent transactions with `list_payments`. It will drop the actual JSON response right into your editor. Now you're building functions with the exact data structure you'll get in production. This means less guesswork and fewer bugs when you deploy. It’s a massive improvement over hardcoding examples.

Draft Payment Logic in Cursor

You can generate working code for your checkout and refund flows. Ask the Cursor agent to write a function that initiates a payment session. It will call `create_checkout` and scaffold the code to handle the response token. The same goes for refunds. Describe the logic you need, and the agent uses the `refund_payment` tool to build a function that correctly processes a full or partial refund against an order. This gets your core payment logic written much faster.

Test Against Your Live Afterpay Config

Write your validation logic against your actual account settings. Before you even commit, you can have the Cursor agent use `get_afterpay_config` to get your real minimum and maximum order limits from Afterpay. This lets you build and test your input validation with the correct boundaries. You can be confident your code will reject out-of-range orders from the start, because you tested against the live configuration, not a guess.

Setup guide

Set up Afterpay MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Afterpay MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Afterpay transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Afterpay tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "afterpay-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about Afterpay MCP in Cursor

Activate the agent and ask it to write a refund function. It will use the `refund_payment` tool to understand the API and generate the necessary code to call it with an order ID and amount.

Absolutely. Just instruct the agent to "list the last 10 Afterpay payments." It runs the `list_payments` tool and inserts the JSON array of transaction data directly into your active file.

You add the server's connection details to the `mcp.json` file in your project's `.cursor` directory. Once it's saved, the Afterpay tools become available to Cursor's agent immediately.

Yes. The tools return standard JSON data. You can use it to generate anything from a React component that displays payment status to a Node.js function that processes refunds.

It only interacts with payment metadata—order IDs, amounts, and statuses. No sensitive customer card or bank data is ever accessed. The connection is proxied through the Vinkius platform, which handles the secure token exchange with Afterpay.
