Perplexity

Run Loyalty Program Tools via the MCP Server

The `get_customer_balance` tool retrieves a user's current point totals directly inside your terminal session. Claude Code runs this tool to check balances during debugging or to pipe the output into other CLI utilities. You can combine this with `get_customer_activities` to see a complete history of points earned and spent. This makes terminal-based troubleshooting of customer accounts fast and scriptable.

Bulk Customer Profile Syncing

The `create_or_update_customer` tool updates customer details in bulk without risk of duplication. Claude Code can process a CSV file of user data and loop through this tool to sync your database with your loyalty platform. Because the tool is idempotent, network interruptions won't corrupt your data. Claude Code handles the retries and logs the final state directly to your terminal.

Automate Point Refunds via CLI

The `refund_transaction` tool reverses point allocations for returned items. Claude Code executes this tool in headless environments, allowing you to trigger loyalty refunds from cron jobs or backend scripts. To verify the refund, your agent can run `get_order_transactions` to check the status of the ledger. This keeps your loyalty balances accurate without requiring a browser or GUI.
