SpendTheBits MCP

An official MCP server provided by SpendTheBits that enables AI agents to browse and purchase gift cards using USDC via the x402 protocol. It integrates with the SpendTheBits Superapp, allowing owners to set budgets, approve purchases, and manage card codes securely without the vendor holding funds.

Endpoint and access

OAuth sign-in: the first time you connect, your client opens the vendor's own authorization prompt in a browser.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http spendthebits-mcp https://x402.spendthebits.com/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add spendthebits-mcp --url https://x402.spendthebits.com/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable spendthebits-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration

  "mcpServers": {
    "spendthebits-mcp": {
      "url": "https://x402.spendthebits.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.
Cline configuration
{

      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://x402.spendthebits.com/mcp",

  "servers": {
    "spendthebits-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://x402.spendthebits.com/mcp"
