# Overview

> Connect any AI agent or MCP compatible client to Monei's financial infrastructure

The Monei MCP server is a hosted implementation of the Model Context Protocol that gives AI agents direct access to Monei's payment infrastructure.

Any MCP compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or your own agent can connect to the server and immediately start moving money, paying bills, sending crypto, and managing wallets through natural language.

## Hosted endpoint

```
https://mcp.monei.cc/sse
```

No setup required. Point your MCP client at this URL and authenticate with your Monei API key.

## npm package

```bash theme={null}
npx @mrmonei/mcp-server
```

Run the server locally or embed it in your own project.

## What it powers

Mr. Monei is the AI financial agent built on top of the Monei MCP server. It is live on Claude and ChatGPT today, and every financial action it performs goes through the same MCP server you are reading about now.

When a user tells Mr. Monei to sell USDT and send the naira to their bank account, the MCP server handles the offramp quote, the bank verification, and the settlement initiation, all as tool calls. You can build the same kind of agent using the exact same server.

## What you get

22 tools across six categories:

* Account and wallet management
* NGN transfers to any Nigerian bank account or Monei user
* Crypto sends on EVM networks and Solana
* Token swaps
* Crypto to naira offramp
* Bill payments such as airtime, data, electricity, cable TV

## Who this is for

**End users** who want to connect their Monei account to Claude Desktop or ChatGPT and manage their finances through conversation.

**Developers** building AI agents that need to handle payments, move money, or interact with Nigerian financial rails without stitching together multiple APIs.

**Teams** embedding financial capabilities into their own AI products using the MCP standard.

## Transport and auth

The server runs over SSE (Server-Sent Events) and uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE for authentication. Your API key is validated against the Monei backend at auth time if the key is wrong, you will know immediately before any token is issued.

Tokens expire after one hour. Your MCP client handles re-authentication automatically.
