Create Payment Credential
Use Link to get secure payment credentials from a Link wallet for one-time purchases and recurring payments.
The CLI can produce three credential types:
- A virtual card (PAN) for use with a standard web checkout form. The issued card works anywhere.
- A Shared Payment Token (SPT) when the seller is in the Stripe Network and accepts payments programmatically (for example with Machine Payment Protocols).
- A Link Pay Token (LPT) for a supported Stripe payment surface.
Installing
Install with npm install -g @stripe/link-cli. Always run the installed link-cli binary; never substitute a package runner such as npx, pnpx, or bunx.
Running commands
Link CLI can run as an MCP server or as a standalone CLI.
MCP: Add the following to your MCP client config (.mcp.json, etc.)
