How to Set Up and Use Adyen

The Adyen MCP Server is an official TypeScript library from Adyen that exposes the full Adyen payment platform API to AI agents and MCP clients. It covers the Checkout API (sessions, payment links, refunds, cancellations) and the Management API (merchant accounts, terminals, webhooks, payment methods, users, and API credentials) through ten capability groups totaling dozens of individual operations. Developers and fintech teams use it to let Claude or other AI agents query transaction data, issue refunds, manage POS terminals, and build payment workflows entirely through natural language.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18 or later installed
  • An Adyen account with API credentials (available from the Adyen Customer Area)
  • An Adyen API key with appropriate roles for the operations you need
  • An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or VS Code with MCP support
1

Obtain your Adyen API key

Log in to the Adyen Customer Area, navigate to Developers → API credentials, and create a new API credential or copy an existing key. Best practice: create a dedicated webservice user with only the roles your use case requires.

2

Test the server with npx

Run the server directly with npx to verify your API key works before adding it to your MCP client config. Use 'TEST' environment for sandboxing.

npx -y @adyen/mcp --adyenApiKey=YOUR_ADYEN_API_KEY --env=TEST
3

Add the server to your MCP client configuration

Add the Adyen MCP server to your claude_desktop_config.json using the command-line arguments for authentication.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "adyen": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@adyen/mcp", "--adyenApiKey=YOUR_ADYEN_API_KEY", "--env=TEST"]
    }
  }
}
4

Switch to LIVE environment when ready

For production use, change the env flag to LIVE and add your live URL prefix from the Adyen Customer Area.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "adyen": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@adyen/mcp", "--adyenApiKey=YOUR_LIVE_API_KEY", "--env=LIVE", "--livePrefix=YOUR_LIVE_PREFIX"]
    }
  }
}
5

Restart Claude Desktop and verify

Restart Claude Desktop and ask it to list your merchant accounts. A successful response confirms the server is connected and authenticated.

Prompts to try

Example prompts covering the ten Adyen API capability groups.

- "List all my Adyen merchant accounts."
- "Create a payment link for $49.99 USD and set it to expire in 24 hours."
- "Issue a refund for payment PSP reference ABC123XYZ."
- "List all POS terminals for merchant account MyStore_EU and show their software versions."
- "Show me all webhooks configured for my merchant account and their current status."

Troubleshooting Adyen

403 Forbidden errors when calling Management API endpoints

The API credential you are using lacks the required role. Go to Adyen Customer Area → Developers → API credentials, select your credential, and add the Management API roles under 'Roles'.

Live endpoint calls fail with 'Unknown prefix' error

When using --env=LIVE, you must also provide --livePrefix with the prefix value from your Adyen live account. Find it in Customer Area under Account → API URLs.

npx takes a long time or hangs on first run

The @adyen/mcp package is downloaded on first use. Ensure you have a stable internet connection and that your npm cache is not corrupted ('npm cache clean --force' then retry).
