What you can do with Memberful in Claude and ChatGPT

For creators and publishers who run paid memberships with Memberful.

Count active subscriptions per plan

Reads subscriptions with their status, plan and expiry date and counts them by plan. Also lists plans so the names and prices match.

Look up a member and their subscriptions

Finds a member by id, or lists members, with their profile, total spend, metadata, address and subscriptions with the plan of each.

List our plans, prices and passes

Lists the plans (the dashboard's Prices) with interval, price and for-sale flag, and the passes (the access groups members subscribe to).

Add a member or update their metadata

Creates a member from an email and an optional full name, or changes the metadata of an existing member.

Changes data

Extend or shorten a subscription's access

Reads a subscription with its status and expiry, then changes the date when it expires, to give more time or end access earlier.

Changes data

Create coupon codes for a discount

Creates one or more coupon codes for a discount you name by its id.

How do I connect Memberful?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Memberful API key.

Optional: Memberful account.

Create it in Memberful → Settings → Custom applications. Your key is used only to call the GraphQL API on your behalf and to derive a private account id; it is never shown to anyone.

Claude claude.ai · Desktop

  1. Open Customize → Connectors, then click + Add → Add custom connector.
  2. Enter the name Memberful and this URL, then click Add:
    https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. Claude opens the login page: enter your Memberful API key.
  4. In a chat, click + → Connectors and turn on Memberful.

Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.

ChatGPT chatgpt.com

  1. Open Plugins, click +, then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Enter the name Memberful and this URL, choose OAuth as the authentication, confirm the warning and create it:
    https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp
  3. ChatGPT opens the login page: enter your Memberful API key.
  4. In Plugins, install Memberful, then choose it in a chat.

No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http memberful https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memberful": {
      "url": "https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "memberful": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add memberful --url https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login memberful

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://memberful.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Memberful API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Pro$9/mo · $90/yr10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+$39/mo · $390/yr100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this Memberful server only. Ask your AI to run memberful_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with memberful_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with memberful_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Read only · 7

  • Get a membermemberful_get_member
    Fetch one Memberful member by id: profile, Stripe customer id, unrestricted-access flag, total spend, metadata, address, and their subscriptions (each with plan). Memberful GraphQL: member(id).
  • List membersmemberful_list_members
    List members (Relay connection): each edge has a cursor + node (profile, Stripe customer id, unrestricted-access flag, total spend, and their subscriptions). Paginate with `first` + `after` (pass the last edge's `cursor`); `first` defaults to 50. Set `activeOnly` to return only members with an ACTIVE membership state. For member-state filters beyond active, use memberful_query. Memberful GraphQL: members connection.
  • Get a subscriptionmemberful_get_subscription
    Fetch one subscription by id: status, activated/expires/trial timestamps, plan, member, orders, coupon. Memberful GraphQL: subscription(id).
  • List subscriptionsmemberful_list_subscriptions
    List subscriptions (Relay connection): each edge has a cursor + node (status, expires/created timestamps, plan, member). Paginate with `first` + `after` (pass the last edge's `cursor`); `first` defaults to 50. NOTE: this uses the top-level `subscriptions` connection, which is sourced from the community SDK — validate against a live account. Memberful GraphQL: subscriptions connection.
  • List plansmemberful_list_plans
    List all plans (Memberful dashboard 'Prices'): name, interval, price (cents), for-sale flag, plan group. Memberful GraphQL: plans.
  • List passesmemberful_list_passes
    List all passes (Memberful dashboard 'Plans' — the access groups a member subscribes to): id, name. Memberful GraphQL: passes.
  • Run a GraphQL query (read-only)memberful_query
    Escape hatch: run an arbitrary Memberful GraphQL QUERY (read-only) against your account's /api/graphql endpoint with optional variables. Mutations are REJECTED — use the dedicated write tools or memberful_graphql for those. Useful for fields not covered by the curated read tools (e.g. member-state filters beyond active).

Changes data · 5

  • Create a membermemberful_create_member
    MUTATES Memberful data: create a new member with an email (and optional full name). Memberful GraphQL: memberCreate(email, fullName).
  • Update a membermemberful_update_member
    MUTATES Memberful data: update a member's metadata (a JSON string; max 50 keys, 40-char keys, 500-char values). Only metadata is supported here; for other inline member fields use memberful_graphql. Memberful GraphQL: memberUpdate(id, metadata).
  • Change subscription expirationmemberful_change_subscription_expiration
    MUTATES Memberful data: change WHEN a subscription expires (extend or shorten access). expiresAt is a Unix timestamp in SECONDS (Int). Memberful GraphQL: subscriptionChangeExpirationTime(id, expiresAt).
  • Create couponsmemberful_create_coupons
    MUTATES Memberful data: create one or more coupon codes for a discount. Provide the discount id (discountId) and the coupon code strings. Memberful GraphQL: createCoupons(discountId, coupons).
  • Run a GraphQL operation (query or mutation)memberful_graphql
    MUTATES Memberful data (potentially): escape hatch to run an arbitrary Memberful GraphQL operation — including any mutation — against your account's /api/graphql endpoint with optional variables. Prefer memberful_query for read-only calls.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)memberful_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featurememberful_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Memberful tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+memberful_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for Memberful (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionmemberful_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's Memberful Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run memberful_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Memberful in Claude or ChatGPT?

Count active subscriptions per plan. Look up a member and their subscriptions. List our plans, prices and passes. Add a member or update their metadata. Extend or shorten a subscription's access. Create coupon codes for a discount. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Memberful product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Memberful. The server calls the Memberful API with your own Memberful access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Memberful to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Memberful API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my Memberful key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Memberful API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my Memberful credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Memberful API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Memberful.

Can the AI change my Memberful data?

Yes, if you approve it. 5 of the 12 Memberful tools can create or change data. The other 7 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this Memberful server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run memberful_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run memberful_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run memberful_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Memberful tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with memberful_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
