What is the Authorize.net MCP Server?
Connect your Authorize.net merchant gateway to any AI agent to power conversational commerce. Command precise payment logic, track settlements, and manage Customer Information Manager (CIM) profiles effortlessly.
What you can do
- Payment Processing — Run strict "Auth & Capture" to process real funds instantly, or perform "Auth Only" to hold funds legitimately before shipping
- Refunds & Voids — Initiate refunds on previously settled transactions or Void anomalies residing in your pending batches cleanly
- Vault & CIM Profiles — Securely construct isolated Customer Information Profiles linking sensitive card data without exposing raw PANs to unencrypted bounds
- Auditing & Settlements — Query distinct details of a single transaction ID or map an overarching list of today's unsettled nightly batch runs
How it works
- Subscribe to this secure MCP Server
- Add your Authorize.net Login ID, Transaction Key, and Environment mapping
- Engage directly with Authorize.net's API via Claude, Cursor, or any compatible AI client
Your AI agent eliminates the clunky Merchant Interface, managing daily financial anomalies in pure dialogue.
Who is this for?
- E-Commerce Managers — seamlessly execute post-return refunds dynamically on the fly
- Sales Engineers — verify exactly why a card was declined (AVS or CVV logic flaws) natively
- Financial Ops — track unresolved unsettled holds systematically prior to batch processing

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI safely create standard CIM profiles?
Yes. The agent utilizes Authorize.net's API structure strictly intended for PCI-compliant scenarios. It successfully tokens the user emails converting them into shielded unique underlying node endpoints (Profile ID). Subsequent commands elegantly pin payment PAN inputs strictly onto that boundary.
Why would I use "Auth Only" instead of "Auth Capture"?
An "Auth Only" is essential when shipping physical goods that aren't instantly ready. It guarantees the user's funds exist and freezes them for up to 30 days without legally withdrawing the cash. Once the shipment processes, your AI issues a Prior Auth Capture logically finishing the monetary path.
Is it possible to completely void transactions instead of waiting for a settlement?
Yes. Authorize.net supports a strict "Void" capability on unsettled transactions. The AI can cancel a transaction if asked quickly within the same business day, preventing the funds from ever being captured in the overnight batch—saving you settlement and processing fees.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
