Build the next generation of European payments with us

agent.ts
MCP-ready
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
const autopay = await createMCPClient({
transport: { type: "sse", url: "https://mcp.autopay.pl" },
});
const { create_payment } = await autopay.tools();
const payment = await create_payment.execute({
amount: 129.99,
currency: "PLN",
method: "blik",
});
// mocked response
// -> { status: "authorized", paymentId: "pay_8f2c1d" }

Autopay exposes an MCP server, so your agent can call it like any other tool.

autopaylab is Autopay's R&D program for merchants, fintechs, and developers who want to co-build experimental payment tech, from AI-driven checkout to agentic commerce, before it's a roadmap item anywhere else.

What is autopaylab

We don't sell a vision. We build things.

autopaylab isn't an R&D department locked in an ivory tower. It's a team that takes a real problem from a partner, sits down to write code, and in a few weeks has something that either works or doesn't. No pretending we have it all figured out upfront.

Why we're doing this at all

Because the most interesting things in payments won't get built at one table. We're opening up Autopay's infrastructure and engineers to anyone with an idea worth testing with us, instead of waiting for us to build it alone.

  • We research

    We start from a real friction point in payments, not a whiteboard idea. Multiple agent protocols with no common integration layer was one of them.

  • We improve

    We build on what already exists instead of starting from zero: existing checkout stacks, existing agent protocols like MCP, existing payment rails.

  • We build

    What works ships as real code, not a slide deck. The Universal MCP Adapter is one adapter doing exactly this today.

  • We open it up

    When something works, we open it to partners to build on, the way PayTalk's closed rollout works right now.

Who we're looking for

Three kinds of partner, one program

We're not building three separate tracks. Merchants, fintech and AI teams, and developers all sit at the same table and the same proof of concept can pull from all three.

E-commerce merchants

What you bring

  • Production traffic and a real checkout to experiment on

What you get

  • Early access to Autopay's AI-checkout and agentic-commerce builds
  • Direct engineering support integrating them
  • A launch-partner case study

Fintech and AI startups

What you bring

  • A working product or model that needs a real payments rail

What you get

  • Direct API access to Autopay's processing stack
  • Co-development time with our engineers
  • Where it fits, a warm intro to Autopay's merchant base for pilots

Developers and agencies

What you bring

  • Build capacity: SDKs, integrations, agent tooling

What you get

  • Early specs and sandbox access before public release
  • A direct line to the team that owns the API
  • Credit as a contributor when it ships
Use cases

What we're building

We're not saying much yet. Here's what's queued up.

Live

Universal MCP Adapter

Every agent framework speaks its own protocol, and every merchant runs a different backend. Wiring each combination together separately doesn't scale. The Universal MCP Adapter sits in the middle as a single translation layer: one side speaks whatever protocol an agent uses, the other speaks whatever a merchant's backend already exposes. Adding a new protocol or a new merchant means extending the adapter, not rebuilding the integration.

Universal MCP Adapter
  • One adapter instead of N×M integrations: agents and merchant backends each integrate once, against the adapter, not against each other.
  • MCP is the first protocol it speaks; the header above shows the shape of that integration (a mocked create_payment tool call over MCP).
  • Built to add protocols and merchant backends over time, without merchants or agent frameworks needing to change anything on their side.
