MoonPay MCP Setup

Goal

Configure the MoonPay CLI as an MCP server so Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible client can use all MoonPay tools directly.

Prerequisites

npm i -g @moonpay/cli
mp login --email [email protected]
mp verify --email [email protected] --code <code>

Claude Code setup

claude mcp add moonpay -- mp mcp

Claude Desktop setup

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "moonpay": {
      "command": "mp",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Then restart Claude Desktop.

What it provides

All MoonPay CLI tools are available as MCP tools:

Wallet management — create, import, list, retrieve, delete, export wallets
Token operations — search, retrieve, trending, swap, bridge, transfer
Fiat — buy crypto with card/bank, virtual accounts with on-ramp
x402 payments — paid API requests with automatic payment handling
Transactions — sign locally, send, list, retrieve

Verification

After setup, ask Claude: "What MoonPay tools do you have?" — it should list all available tools.

Auth

The MCP server uses the same credentials as the CLI (~/.config/moonpay/credentials.json). Run mp login --email <email> then mp verify --email <email> --code <code> to authenticate.
