FastSpring MCP Server subscription controls in Claude Desktop

Stop leaving your chat window to handle billing disputes or manual tier changes. This MCP Server lets your agent query active customer plans using `get_subscription_details` or modify them directly via `update_subscription_plan`. You can run these commands locally on your machine or hook up a remote URL in your browser settings. When support issues crop up, Claude Desktop executes `cancel_subscription` to handle churn events instantly. It extracts explicit churn flags during the process, keeping your records clean without requiring you to log into the merchant dashboard.

Look up customer records on the fly

Hunting down buyer profiles becomes trivial when you scan your entire customer base using this MCP connection. By triggering `list_accounts`, Claude Desktop pulls bounded CRM files straight into your conversation. It gives you immediate context on who you are talking to before you reply. If a customer has outdated contact info, just tell your agent to fix it. The `update_account_info` tool sends a JSON payload to modify customer accounts, while `get_account_details` checks that the edits saved correctly.

Inspect products and verify order histories

Finding specific transaction records shouldn't require custom API scripts. With `get_order_details`, Claude Desktop pulls cloud logs to trace exact order limits and payment states. Your agent analyzes these logs to troubleshoot delivery issues in real time. Matching products to incoming orders is handled by running `list_catalog_products` to verify mapping data. You can also generate secure login portals for customers using `generate_auth_link` to speed up self-service issues.
