@codespar/mcp-transak
MCP server for Transak — fiat↔crypto on/off-ramp across ~170 countries with multi-chain coverage (Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, BSC, Bitcoin, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and more).
Transak is the natural peer to MoonPay: both solve the same problem (turn local fiat into on-chain crypto, and back), but each has its own partner list, country coverage, and pricing curve. Bundling both lets an agent-commerce flow pick the best route per corridor instead of pinning to one provider.
Why both MoonPay and Transak
- Coverage: MoonPay lists ~160 countries, Transak ~170. The overlaps are large but the edges are meaningful — certain LatAm, MENA, and APAC corridors are stronger on one side than the other.
- Partners: each has a distinct roster of DEX/wallet/dapp partners, which changes KYC reuse and custody posture for a given buyer.
- Pricing: fees, FX spread, and min/max vary per corridor. An agent can call
get_quote on both, compare, and route.
- Redundancy: if one provider rate-limits, de-risks a country, or throws a KYC hold, the other keeps the flow alive.
This MCP server focuses on the Partner API (server-to-server), not the widget. Agents create orders directly, poll status, and reconcile via webhooks.
Status
0.1.0-alpha.1. The public currency, payment-method, and quote endpoints were verified live against api-stg.transak.com. The partner-order endpoint paths (/api/v2/orders, /api/v2/orders/{id}, /cancel, /api/v2/partner/me) follow the documented conventions but a few are only fully visible inside Transak's partner dashboard — expect minor tweaks once you pair this against a real key.
