Connect Allowance over MCP

Server URL

Connect in three steps

1. Add the server URL above to your MCP client.
2. Authorize in your browser — a one-time sign-in links your Allowance account. There are no tokens to copy.
3. Approve each purchase on your iPhone.

Add to your client

claude mcp add --transport http allowance https://mcp.useallowance.com

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allowance": {
      "url": "https://mcp.useallowance.com"
    }
  }
}

{
  "servers": {
    "allowance": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.useallowance.com"
    }
  }
}

Pick your client, paste the config, and Allowance is added. The first time you use it, your client opens a browser to sign in — no API keys or tokens to paste.

What your agent can do

• Request your approval for a purchase and wait until you approve it.
• Check out in your browser when it has one, or have Allowance complete checkout for it when it doesn't.
• Spend only up to the cap you approve, at the merchant you approve.

Safe by default

Every purchase is approved on your phone and charged to a single-use virtual card with a spend cap. Pause or revoke an allowance anytime from the Allowance app.
