Moment MCP connector

The Moment connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or the Elaichi Agent create billing customers, raise and void bills, send payment requests, run payment pages and capture payments in Moment, inside each person's own access, with every action logged.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Moment to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Moment once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Moment.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Moment API key. One person generates a token in Moment and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Moment to Claude?

Connect Moment in Elaichi first: paste the API key from your Moment account and save. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in to Elaichi and Moment is available in Claude.

Does Moment work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Moment is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Moment once and every client you use picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Moment data?

With Moment connected, an agent can create and update billing customers and billing accounts, raise, update and void bills, create and manage payment requests and payment pages, start payment sessions, capture payments and look up any of these records by ID. Because Moment offers a wide set of actions, short concrete asks such as "void bill 4821" or "list payments on the spring event page" work better than long paragraphs.

Does connecting Moment give the AI access to every payment and customer?

No more than the person who connected it already has. Access to Moment follows the API key that was used, and each person still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every action is tied to a named person. Elaichi can narrow what an agent may do in Moment, for example allowing lookups but not captures, and it can never widen access beyond what the key allows.

Can my team share one Moment connection?

Yes. One person connects Moment with the API key and shares the connection with a team in Elaichi, and nobody else ever sees or handles the key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log shows exactly who created a bill or captured a payment in Moment.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Moment?

Yes. In Elaichi you can restrict actions on Moment one by one, for example blocking bill voids, payment captures or deleting payment pages while still allowing lookups. A blocked action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT or any other client, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to a Moment connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Moment at once, in every client they used. If they had shared their Moment connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. Disconnecting Moment in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client in one step.

Does the Moment MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Moment is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Moment?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Moment. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Moment call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for Moment?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Moment: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
