# Connect Stripe

> Connect Stripe to Claude Tag so it can answer billing and subscription questions. Covers the dedicated account to create, the key fields, and the URL to allow.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Claude Tag is in public beta. Features and behavior described here may change before general availability.

Connecting Stripe lets Claude answer billing and subscription questions in any channel where the connector is on. Claude connects with its own credential, not a person's.

Pair this connector with the Stripe plugin from Anthropic's plugin marketplace so Claude knows how to call the API. Add the plugin on the [**Skills and plugins**](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag?access=plugins) tab. This connector calls Stripe's HTTP API. It isn't an MCP server or a member's personal claude.ai connector.

## Create the credential in Stripe

Use a restricted key with read-only resource permissions, not your account's full secret key. Consider connecting test mode first.

Stripe's own guide for creating the credential is at [docs.stripe.com](https://docs.stripe.com/keys).

## Add the connector

Go to [**Organization settings > Claude Tag > Connectors**](https://claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-tag?access=connectors), click **Add**, and select **Stripe**. Fill in these fields in the connect form.

| Field | Value |
| :- | :- |
| Claude's secret key | The secret key from Stripe |
| Allowed websites | `api.stripe.com` (preset) |

The field labeled Claude's secret key accepts a restricted key; the label is the field name, not a key-type constraint.

The first credential you add for a service from the **Connectors** tab is on in every workspace and channel as soon as you save it. To give it narrower reach, see [where a new connector applies](https://claude.com/docs/claude-tag/admins/add-connections.md#add-a-connection) before you save the connector. Click **Connect** to save the connector.

The Agent Proxy injects the credential at the network boundary; the model and the sandbox are not given the key. See [how Agent Proxy works](https://claude.com/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity.md#agent-proxy).

## Verify the connection

In a channel where the connector is on, in a new thread:

```text wrap theme={null}
@Claude what can you access from this channel?
```

Stripe appears in the list once the connector is live. New threads pick up the connector on their own; in an existing thread, ask Claude to use the service by name.
