Process payments in Google ADK

Use `create_online_payment` to push transaction data to Bold. Your agent ensures the COP amount and payer info meet local compliance standards. Check the result with `get_online_payment`. This confirms the action finished successfully in your merchant account.

Terminal management for Google ADK

Run `list_terminals` to see which devices are online. Your agent uses this data to route payments to the correct physical hardware. Initiate charges with `initiate_terminal_payment` by providing the terminal ID. The agent handles the interaction with the physical device.

Sync webhooks using Google ADK

Register listeners with `create_webhook` to receive status updates. This keeps your Google ADK agent aware of account changes as they happen. Clean up old endpoints using `delete_webhook` when your agent no longer needs them. This maintains a tidy integration.

Setup guide

Set up Bold MCP in Google ADK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
google-adk package (pip install google-adk)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Google ADK

Run pip install google-adk to install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via the McpToolset class.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use McpToolset.from_server() with SseServerParams pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create an LlmAgent

Pass the returned mcp_tools list directly to LlmAgent(tools=mcp_tools). The ADK maps each MCP tool to a native Gemini function call — no manual schema definitions required.
4

Run with any Gemini model

The agent works with any Gemini model (gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-2.5-pro, etc.). Copy the full example on the right to get started with Bold tools in your ADK agent.

agent.py

from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import SseServerParams

# Connect to the MCP via SSE
mcp_tools, exit_stack = await McpToolset.from_server(
    connection_params=SseServerParams(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    )
)

# Create your agent with auto-discovered tools
agent = LlmAgent(
    name="Bold_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Bold tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)

Common questions about Bold MCP in Google ADK

You install the McpToolset from the Vinkius endpoint and add it to your LlmAgent tool list. This allows the agent to call Bold functions as if they were local Python methods.

Use the tool_names filter when setting up your McpToolset. You can restrict the agent to only use specific functions like `get_account_balance`.

Vinkius handles the transport layer securely. Your agent never stores your Bold API keys; it only receives the specific data returned by the tool calls.

The server passes the raw response back to your agent. Your agent logic then decides whether to retry or alert you based on the status code.

We keep all sensitive payment information inside the Bold environment. The server only provides the agent with the specific transaction status it asks for.
