Payment outcomes

Where your money lands.

What happens when your agent manages your billing.

BILLING

Instant payment links

The agent generates a specific link for a customer. You get a direct URL to send to them immediately.

TRACKING

Real-time status updates

Your agent checks the current state of any bill. You'll know exactly who has paid and who hasn't.

AUDIT

Payment history logs

The agent pulls a list of all recent transactions. This gives you a clear view of your incoming revenue.

ACTION

Human intervention needed

If a payment fails or a customer has a dispute, the agent flags it. You step in to handle the conversation or manual adjustments.

The workflow

What your AI does when a payment is needed.

The agent handles the technical steps of billing so you can focus on the customer.

  1. Generate a bill

    When you tell your agent to charge a client, it creates a new billing record and a unique link.

    create_bill
  2. Check bill details

    You can ask for the specifics of a single transaction to see the amount or the recipient.

    get_bill
  3. Monitor all activity

    The agent looks through your recent billing history to find specific invoices.

    list_bills
  4. Verify successful transfers

    To confirm money actually moved, the agent checks the list of completed payments.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can my AI refund a customer?

    No. The agent can only create, list, and get bill or payment data. You must handle refunds through your payment provider's dashboard.

  • 02

    Does the AI decide how much to charge?

    No. You must provide the amount and the customer details in your prompt. The agent only executes the command you give it.

  • 03

    Can the AI change the customer's email address?

    No. There are no tools available to modify existing customer profiles or bill details once they are created.

  • 04

    How does the agent know if a payment is finished?

    The agent uses the payment listing tools to check the status of transactions. It reports back what the data shows.

  • 05

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, as long as you are using an MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
