For AI agents

  • What: unofficial MCP server (model context protocol) for a PayPing (payping.ir, Iran) merchant account. Amounts are Toman, dates UTC.
  • Install: uvx payping-mcp (needs uv, Python 3.10+; or pip install payping-mcp). Transport: stdio.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add payping -e PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token -- uvx payping-mcp
  • Auth: PAYPING_TOKEN (required, a PayPing API token whose scopes decide what works); PAYPING_MCP_PROXY (optional HTTP proxy).
  • Access: acts on the user's own account, so it is not read-only: 15 read tools and 6 create/send tools. Ask the user to confirm before any create or send tool. No tool can withdraw, refund, reverse or delete.
  • Tools: 21, prefixed payping_*. Start with payping_get_profile, payping_get_balance, payping_get_sales_summary, payping_list_transactions, payping_list_invoices. Balance and sales summary use dashboard endpoints that PayPing may reject for API tokens; the other tools still work.
  • Typical sequence: payping_create_customer -> payping_create_invoice -> payping_send_invoice; or payping_create_product -> payping_create_payment_link.
  • Units: Toman (not Rial), dates and times UTC.
  • Use when: the user wants to see or create invoices, payment links, coupons, customers or sales figures in their own PayPing account.
  • Do not use when: the task is taking raw payments, verifying or refunding a payment, or paying out; there are no tools for these.
  • Output: compact JSON; lists return at most 50 items with total (page with offset); pass codes (customer, product, invoice) between tools.
  • Machine-readable: server.json; catalog of all Iran MCP servers: iran-mcp (TOOLS.md, servers.json, llms.txt).

Why

The PayPing panel is built for people clicking through screens. Answering "how much did I sell this month, which payments failed, and who still owes me?" means opening several pages, and creating an invoice means filling in a customer, items and a send step by hand. With payping-mcp an agent does it in a few calls: it reads the numbers, drafts the invoice, shows you the details and only creates and sends it after you say yes.

You: Create an invoice for Ali Rezaei: 2 hours of consulting at 1,500,000 Toman each, and send it.

Agent: calls payping_list_customers -> shows you the invoice details and waits for your OK -> payping_create_invoice -> payping_send_invoice

It gives you the public pay page link (https://ppng.ir/v/<invoice code>) and tells you PayPing sent the invoice by SMS/email.

Everything runs on your machine with your own token. There is no hosted relay in between.

What it can do

  • Money: wallet balance, sales totals for a period, transactions, one payment's real status, settlements to your bank
  • Shop data: list and search customers, products, coupons and invoices
  • Get paid: create a customer and an invoice with a pay page link, or a reusable payment link for a product, then have PayPing send the invoice by SMS/email
  • Safe by design: runs on your machine, talks only to PayPing, asks before creating anything, and cannot withdraw, refund, reverse a payment or delete anything

Example prompts:

  • "Show my PayPing profile."
  • "What is my PayPing balance and how much did I sell this month?"
  • "List this week's received payments and tell me which ones failed."
  • "Which invoices are overdue?"
  • "Create a product called Monthly plan at 490,000 Toman and give me a payment link."
  • "Create an invoice for Ali Rezaei: 2 hours of consulting at 1,500,000 Toman each. Show me before you create it."
  • فاکتورهای پرداخت‌نشده این ماه را نشان بده.
  • موجودی پی‌پینگ من چقدر است و این ماه چقدر فروش داشتم؟
  • یک لینک پرداخت برای محصول «اشتراک ماهانه» بساز.
  • آخرین تسویه‌های من به حساب بانکی را نشان بده.

Quick start

You need:

  • a PayPing merchant account with a complete profile (PayPing only approves tokens for complete profiles)
  • uv
  • an MCP client: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, or any other

Then:

1. Create a PayPing token

  • Sign in at app.payping.ir.

  • Open اتصالات (Connections) → توسعه دهندگان (Developers). The page title is توکن ها (Tokens).

  • Click توکن جدید (New token) and fill in the form:

    FieldWhat to enter
    توکن تست (test token)Leave off to work with your real account.
    نام توکن (token name)Any name, e.g. payping-mcp on my laptop
    آی‌پی‌های مجاز (allowed IPs)Optional. If you fill it in, list the public IP your computer reaches PayPing from. Calls from any other IP fail with error code 166.
    تاریخ انقضا (expiry date)When the token stops working. Shorter is safer.
    دسترسی‌ها (scopes)See the table below.
    توضیحات (description)e.g. MCP server for AI agents
    رمز پیامکی (SMS code)Click ارسال رمز (send code) and type the code PayPing sends to your phone.
  • Click توکن جدید to submit. Copy the token now: PayPing shows it only once.

  • Wait for approval. PayPing staff review every new token. After approval, wait about 10 more minutes; until then the token gets HTTP 401.

Scopes. The form preselects گزارش پرداخت‌ها and ساخت پرداخت. Remove ساخت پرداخت: this server never uses it. Then add what you need:

Panel labelScopeTools that need it
گزارش پرداخت‌هاpay:readtransactions, payment detail, withdrawals
مشاهده و گزارش از مشتریانcustomer:readlist and get customers
ساخت و ویرایش مشتریانcustomer:writecreate customer
مشاهده و گزارش از محصولاتproduct:readlist and get products
ساخت و ویرایش محصولاتproduct:writecreate product, create payment link
مشاهده و گزارش کدهای تخفیفcoupon:readlist and get coupons
ساخت و ویرایش کدهای تخفیفcoupon:writecreate coupon
مشاهده و گزارش از فاکتورهاinvoice:readlist and get invoices
ساخت و ویرایش فاکتورinvoice:writecreate and send invoices
ساخت پرداختpay:writenone: leave it out

Want a read-only agent? Select only the read scopes. The create tools then fail with HTTP 403 and nothing in the account can change.

2. Add the server to your MCP client

Put your token where it says your-token.

Claude Code
claude mcp add payping -e PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token -- uvx payping-mcp

This saves the server, with the token, in your user config (~/.claude.json), not in the project. Add --scope user to use it in every project.

Claude Desktop

Settings → Developer → Edit Config, then add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "payping": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["payping-mcp"],
      "env": { "PAYPING_TOKEN": "your-token" }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop after saving.

Cursor

Click Install in Cursor at the top and fill in the token, or add the Claude Desktop block to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project).

VS Code (Copilot agent mode)

Click Install in VS Code at the top, or add to .vscode/mcp.json. VS Code asks for the token once and stores it securely, so the file is safe to commit:

{
  "inputs": [
    { "type": "promptString", "id": "payping-token", "description": "PayPing API token", "password": true }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "payping": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["payping-mcp"],
      "env": { "PAYPING_TOKEN": "${input:payping-token}" }
    }
  }
}
Codex CLI
codex mcp add payping --env PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token -- uvx payping-mcp

Or in ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.payping]
command = "uvx"
args = ["payping-mcp"]

[mcp_servers.payping.env]
PAYPING_TOKEN = "your-token"
Gemini CLI

Add to ~/.gemini/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "payping": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["payping-mcp"],
      "env": { "PAYPING_TOKEN": "your-token" }
    }
  }
}
Windsurf

Add the Claude Desktop block to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.

From GitHub instead of PyPI

Replace uvx payping-mcp with:

uvx --from git+https://github.com/sepehr071/payping-mcp payping-mcp

In JSON configs: "args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/sepehr071/payping-mcp", "payping-mcp"].

Anything else

It's a standard stdio MCP server: run uvx payping-mcp, or pip install payping-mcp and run payping-mcp, with PAYPING_TOKEN in the environment.

3. Check that it works

Ask the agent: "Show my PayPing profile." You should see your PayPing username. If you see an error, look it up in Troubleshooting.

Then try the example prompts under What it can do.

Tools

All amounts are Toman, all dates UTC. Lists return at most 50 items per call and include total.

Read-only (15):

ToolWhat it does
payping_get_profileAccount behind the token: username, name, contact, verification flags
payping_get_balanceWallet balance
payping_get_sales_summaryTotal sales, count and daily averages for a period (default last 30 days)
payping_list_transactionsPayments in a date range, received or paid
payping_get_paymentOne payment by code, with its real status (paid and verified, cancelled, ...)
payping_list_withdrawalsSettlements to your bank account
payping_get_withdrawalOne settlement by code: IBAN, bank tracking number

Create and send (6; the agent must confirm with you first):

ToolWhat it does
payping_create_customerSave a customer; returns its code
payping_create_productCreate a product with a fixed or payer-set price
payping_create_payment_linkPublic pay page for a product: https://ppng.ir/d/<product code>

How it works

  AI agent  (Claude, Cursor, Copilot, ...)
      │
      │  MCP over stdio
      ▼
  payping-mcp  (runs on your machine, holds PAYPING_TOKEN)
      │
      │  HTTPS (REST, Bearer token, optional proxy)
      ├──────▶  api.payping.ir    (reports, customers, products, coupons, invoices)
      └──────▶  oauth.payping.ir  (profile)

payping-mcp runs locally and calls PayPing's API with your own token. There's no hosted server in between. It ignores system proxy settings, retries a failed GET once after a second on HTTP 429, 502 or 503 (never a create or send call), keeps no cache, and returns each result as one compact JSON block with empty fields dropped.

Privacy and security

  • Local only. The server runs on your machine and talks only to api.payping.ir and oauth.payping.ir. There is no relay server and no telemetry.
  • The token never leaks. It is sent only in the Authorization header to PayPing and never appears in tool output, errors or logs.
  • Treat the token like a password. Anyone who has it can use your account within its scopes. Don't commit it; use VS Code inputs or your client's user config. Give it only the scopes you need and an expiry date.
  • Lost or leaked token? In the panel, open the token and use حذف (delete) or تعویض توکن (swap token, which issues a new value). Then update your MCP config.
  • Confirm before creating. Create and send tools are annotated destructiveHint, so MCP clients ask before running them. Their descriptions also tell the agent to confirm the details with you.
  • No money moves out. No tool can withdraw, refund, reverse a payment or delete anything.
  • Prompt-injection aware. Customer names, descriptions and notes come from other people. The server tells the agent to treat them as data, never as instructions.

Good to know

  • Toman, not Rial. PayPing uses Toman in every service, and so does every tool. Dates and times are UTC.
  • Not read-only. Six tools create data or message a real customer. Use read-only scopes if you want an agent that can only look.
  • Limits. Lists return at most 50 items per call (limit 1-50); page with offset. redirect_url must be https.
  • Balance and sales summary are less certain. payping_get_balance and payping_get_sales_summary use endpoints from the PayPing dashboard, not the public API docs. If PayPing rejects them for API tokens, the tool error says so, and every other tool keeps working.
  • No raw payments. Raw POST /v3/pay payments are left out on purpose. They need your own callback server and a verify call within 10 minutes, or PayPing refunds the payer. Invoices and payment links use PayPing's own pay page instead.
  • What it does not do. No withdrawals, refunds, payment reversal, verification of raw payments, updates or deletes.
  • Changing scopes needs a swap. After you edit a token's website, return URL or scopes, PayPing applies the change only after تعویض توکن (swap token). The swap gives a new token value; put it in your MCP config.
  • Proxy. Set PAYPING_MCP_PROXY if your network needs a proxy to reach PayPing. System proxy variables are ignored on purpose.

Troubleshooting

"PAYPING_TOKEN is not set"

The MCP client did not pass the token. Check the env block (or -e PAYPING_TOKEN=... for Claude Code) and restart the client.

"PayPing rejected the token (HTTP 401)"

One of these:

  • PayPing has not approved the token yet, or approved it less than 10 minutes ago.
  • The token expired. The panel shows منقضی شده (expired) on it.
  • The token was swapped or deleted, or was copied incompletely.
HTTP 403: "The token may lack the scope this tool needs"

Add the scope from the scope table to the token, then تعویض توکن (swap token) and use the new value.

"code 166"

Your IP is not in the token's allowed IPs. Add your current public IP to آی‌پی‌های مجاز or clear the list. If you route through a proxy, the IP PayPing sees is the proxy's exit IP.

"Could not reach PayPing" or "PayPing did not answer in time"

The server ignores system proxy settings on purpose. If your network needs a proxy to reach PayPing, set PAYPING_MCP_PROXY, e.g. http://127.0.0.1:10809. In testing, PayPing's API hosts answered both from Iran and from a foreign exit.

Claude Desktop says uvx is not found

Use the full path to uvx (where uvx on Windows, which uvx on macOS/Linux) as command.

How do I see exactly what the agent sees?
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector -e PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token uvx payping-mcp

Errors that carry a PayPing trace id: give that id to PayPing support.

FAQ

Is there a PayPing API for AI agents or an MCP server?

Yes. payping-mcp wraps the PayPing merchant API as 21 MCP tools, so any MCP client can use it with your own token.

How do I use PayPing with Claude, Cursor or Copilot?

Create a PayPing token, then add the server with claude mcp add payping -e PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token -- uvx payping-mcp or the config blocks in Quick start.

Is it official, safe and free?

It is unofficial and free (MIT). It runs on your machine, talks only to PayPing and cannot withdraw or refund. Give the token only the scopes you need; read-only scopes make it read-only.

Can the agent create invoices or payment links without asking me?

The tools are annotated so MCP clients ask before running them, and the server tells the agent to confirm the details with you first. Your client's permission settings have the last word, and a token with only read scopes cannot create anything.

Can it move money out of my account?

No. There are no tools to withdraw, refund, reverse a payment or delete anything.

Why does the token get HTTP 401 right after PayPing approved it?

PayPing staff review every new token, and the token starts working about 10 minutes after approval.

Why do balance or sales summary fail?

They use dashboard endpoints, not the documented public API, and PayPing may reject them for API tokens. The error says so and the other tools keep working.

Does it work outside Iran?

The PayPing API hosts answered both from Iran and from a foreign exit in testing. You still need a PayPing merchant account; set PAYPING_MCP_PROXY if your network needs a proxy.

Are amounts in Rial or Toman?

Toman, in every tool.

فارسی: سرور MCP پی‌پینگ

payping-mcp یک سرور MCP غیررسمی برای پی‌پینگ (درگاه پرداخت و فاکتورنویسی آنلاین در ایران) است و به دستیار هوش مصنوعی شما (Claude، Cursor، Copilot و ...) اجازه می‌دهد موجودی، فروش، تراکنش‌ها، تسویه‌ها، مشتریان، محصولات، کدهای تخفیف و فاکتورهای حساب پی‌پینگ شما را ببیند، و پس از تأیید شما مشتری، محصول، لینک پرداخت، کد تخفیف و فاکتور بسازد.

  • روی سیستم خود شما اجرا می‌شود و توکن فقط به سرورهای پی‌پینگ فرستاده می‌شود.
  • فقط‌خواندنی نیست: ابزارهای ساخت و ارسال روی حساب واقعی شما کار می‌کنند و باید پیش از اجرا تأیید بدهید. اگر فقط دسترسی‌های خواندن را به توکن بدهید، چیزی در حساب تغییر نمی‌کند.
  • برداشت، استرداد، برگشت پرداخت و حذف با این ابزار ممکن نیست.
  • مبالغ به تومان و تاریخ‌ها به وقت UTC هستند.

ساخت توکن:

  • در پنل پی‌پینگ به «اتصالات ← توسعه دهندگان» بروید و «توکن جدید» را بزنید.
  • نام توکن، تاریخ انقضا و توضیحات را وارد کنید. «آی‌پی‌های مجاز» اختیاری است؛ اگر پر کنید، درخواست از آی‌پی دیگر با خطای 166 رد می‌شود.
  • در «دسترسی‌ها» فقط موارد لازم را انتخاب کنید و «ساخت پرداخت» را حذف کنید؛ این ابزار به آن نیازی ندارد.
  • رمز پیامکی را بگیرید و وارد کنید. توکن فقط یک بار نمایش داده می‌شود؛ همان لحظه کپی کنید.
  • پروفایل شما باید کامل باشد. کارشناس پی‌پینگ توکن را تأیید می‌کند و تا حدود ۱۰ دقیقه بعد از تأیید ممکن است خطای 401 بگیرید.

نصب در Claude Code:

claude mcp add payping -e PAYPING_TOKEN=your-token -- uvx payping-mcp

نمونه پرسش‌ها

  • «موجودی پی‌پینگ من چقدر است و این ماه چقدر فروختم؟»
  • «فاکتورهای پرداخت‌نشده این ماه را نشان بده.»
  • «یک فاکتور برای علی رضایی بساز: ۲ ساعت مشاوره، ساعتی ۱٬۵۰۰٬۰۰۰ تومان. قبل از ساخت به من نشان بده.»
  • «برای محصول من لینک پرداخت بساز.»
  • «آخرین تسویه‌ها به حساب بانکی من چه بوده‌اند؟»

توکن را مثل رمز عبور نگه دارید و در گیت قرار ندهید. اگر لو رفت، در پنل آن را حذف یا «تعویض توکن» کنید.
