Custom Connectors

Connect Chargebee to Claude Code

Have Claude change plans and draft invoices in Chargebee. From the terminal, inside the sessions where you already work.

How do you connect Chargebee to Claude Code?

Claude Code reaches outside tools through MCP servers. To connect Chargebee, you add a Chargebee MCP server: a small hosted service that exposes Chargebee's data and actions over the Model Context Protocol. With a custom connector we build for you, that is one command in the terminal, then an OAuth sign-in with your own Chargebee account. No API keys pasted into config files.

claude mcp add --transport http chargebee https://your-connector-url/mcp

Then run /mcp inside a Claude Code session to sign in. Add it with --scope project and the connector is checked into the repo for your whole team.

What can Claude Code do in Chargebee once connected?

Full read-write Chargebee access lets Claude pull up a subscription, change its plan or quantity, draft and send an invoice, apply a credit note, pause or resume billing, and update a customer's details once you approve. The billing follow-ups that used to mean tab-switching into the Chargebee dashboard happen where you are already working.

  • Change a subscription's plan, quantity, or billing cycle for a customer
  • Draft and send an invoice for a stated amount after approval
  • Apply a credit note or adjustment to an account once you confirm
  • Pause or resume a subscription, or schedule a cancellation at term end
  • Create or update a customer record with billing and contact details
  • Record or update a payment and reconcile it against an open invoice

One connector, every Claude surface

The connector we build is a remote MCP server, which is the same standard claude.ai and Claude Desktop use. Add it once and the same Chargebee access works in Claude Code for you, in claude.ai for the rest of the team, and in Claude Desktop. One build, one set of permissions, one monthly plan covering all of them.

Build it yourself, or have it built?

If you live in the terminal, you can absolutely write your own MCP server against the Chargebee API. The protocol is open. What you take on is everything around the happy path: OAuth token refresh, hosting, monitoring, keeping up when Chargebee changes its API and when the MCP spec itself moves, and scoping write actions so an agent can never do more than you intended. We build Chargebee connectors with separated read and write tools and approval gates on destructive actions, then host and maintain them so they keep working while you work.

Frequently asked questions

Does the same Chargebee connector work in claude.ai and Claude Code?
Yes. It is one remote MCP server. Claude Code adds it with a single "claude mcp add" command; claude.ai and Claude Desktop add it as a custom connector in Settings. Each person signs in with their own Chargebee account, so access always matches what that person can already see and do.
Do I need to host or maintain anything myself?
No. The connector runs as a hosted service we operate: we handle uptime, token health, API changes on Chargebee's side, and MCP spec migrations under the monthly plan. Your side is one command in the terminal and an OAuth sign-in.
Is it safe to give a coding agent write access to Chargebee?
Write access is scoped, not blanket. Read tools and write tools are separated, destructive actions like deleting or sending are gated behind your explicit approval, and the connector can never exceed the permissions of the Chargebee account it signs in with. Revoking access is one click in Chargebee.
