What is the Paddle MCP Server?
Bring the Paddle Billing API directly into your AI workflows. Acting as your Merchant of Record (MoR) interface, this integration allows your agent to seamlessly query customer billing states, manage SaaS subscriptions, retrieve invoice ledgers, and pause actively churning plans natively.
What you can do
- Customers & Billing Details — List and search all CRM accounts managed by Paddle and extract their exact tax identification boundaries
- Subscription Lifecycle — Inspect active or past-due subscriptions, cancel recurring flows dynamically, or pause an active schedule right from chat
- Transactions & Ledgering — Fetch bulk atomic transactions matching exact one-off payments, prorations, and historical subscription renewals
- Catalog Explorer — List your products and retrieve localized checkout prices and native tax-inclusive pricing definitions
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Paddle API Key
- Start managing active SaaS billing states from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Support teams — check payment status or pause subscriptions securely without requesting access to the Paddle dashboard
- RevOps & Finance — extract dynamic revenue limits, evaluate native transactional tax boundaries, and pull structured ledger arrays
- SaaS Developers — test billing configurations and checkout limits directly during product lifecycle testing

Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel a customer subscription directly from chat?
Yes. The agent leverages the cancel_subscription tool to stop recurring plans natively. You can instruct the agent to cancel it "immediately" or "at the next_billing_period" according to Paddle's API logical boundaries.
How do I fetch the exact localized checkout prices?
The list_catalog_prices query extracts the complete Price definitions from your Paddle system. It details the billing frequency, currency boundaries, tax-inclusiveness flags, and item descriptions seamlessly.
Is Paddle Classic Supported or is this for Paddle Billing?
This integration targets the modern Paddle Billing REST API which leverages robust structural objects (like Customers, Businesses, and Subscriptions) ensuring clean MoR tax boundaries and granular item mappings.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
