South Africa Payments MCP — let AI agents accept payments in South Africa

Use it in 60 seconds

Paste this into your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-capable agent):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "south-africa-payments": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp-za.wishpool.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Nothing to install. Credentials, when you need them, travel as HTTP headers on each request and are never stored — see the threat model.

Or run it yourself

Would you rather not send production credentials to a server you do not control? Deploy this identical code to your own account and point your agent at your own URL:

git clone https://github.com/junter1989k-ai/south-africa-payments-mcp && cd south-africa-payments-mcp && npx vercel --prod

A remote MCP server that lets any AI agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor…) accept payments in South Africa: cards, instant EFT, and other methods via Paystack — via Paystack's hosted checkout.

⚖️ Stateless translation layer: funds always flow buyer → Paystack → merchant directly. Never holds funds or stores credentials — no database at all.
