Subscription Platform

Recharge MCP connector

The Recharge connector brings subscription charges, customer addresses, bundle selections, and accounts into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client, so your team can check, skip, and discount subscription orders from a chat window.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

1

In Elaichi

Connect Recharge once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Recharge.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Recharge API key. One person generates a token in Recharge and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Recharge through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Support

    Skip a charge for a customer on request

    When a subscriber writes in asking to pause next month's box, find their upcoming Recharge charge and skip it without opening the Recharge admin.

  • Support

    Fix a shipping address before the next charge

    Look up the address on a subscriber's Recharge account, update it, and merge duplicate addresses so the next shipment goes to the right place.

  • Retention

    Apply a discount to keep a subscriber

    When someone is about to cancel, apply a discount code to their next Recharge charge and confirm the new total in the same conversation.

  • Operations

    Swap products in a bundle subscription

    Review a subscriber's bundle selections in Recharge and update the items before the next charge is processed.

  • Finance

    Review upcoming and failed charges

    List Recharge charges by status or date, pull up a single charge to check line items and totals, and remove a discount that was applied in error.

  • Operations

    Run bulk changes as a batch

    Create an async batch in Recharge for a large set of updates, start it, and check the list of tasks to see what has finished.

Try asking

  • “Show subscriptions at risk of cancelation this week.”
  • “Summarize address changes across all customer accounts.”
  • “List charges that failed processing in the last batch.”

From answering questions to doing the work

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

Recharge digests run themselves, you approve.

A schedule fetches Recharge records, drafts a digest, and posts it back once a person approves.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Recharge to Claude?

Connect Recharge in Elaichi first: open the Recharge connector, paste an API key from your Recharge admin, and save. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the endpoint https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate, so the whole setup takes a few minutes.

Does Recharge work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Recharge is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Recharge once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Recharge data?

With Recharge connected, an agent can look up a subscriber's account, list their upcoming or past charges, skip a charge, apply or remove a discount on a charge, and update or merge shipping addresses. It can also review and change bundle selections and create batches for large sets of updates. Short, concrete asks such as "skip the next charge for this customer" work better than long instructions.

Does connecting Recharge give the AI access to my whole store?

No. Access to Recharge follows the API key and the person who signed in, so the agent sees only what that Recharge account can see. Elaichi can narrow that further by removing actions for a team, and it never widens what Recharge itself allows.

Can my team share one Recharge connection?

Yes. One person connects Recharge in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Recharge API key. Each person still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names who skipped a charge or changed an address.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Recharge?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading Recharge charges and accounts while blocking address deletion or discount changes. A blocked action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, or any other client, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Recharge connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Recharge at once, across every client they used. A shared Recharge connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you disconnect Recharge in Elaichi, it is removed from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client in one step.
