# Stripe in Best Bookkeeping App

**Answer in brief:** Best for bringing card payments into the books.


## Resource role

Card payments into the books. Stripe's MCP server lets an agent read the Stripe payments that belong in the books.[1]

It answers at `https://mcp.stripe.com` and reaches much of the Stripe API through its `stripe_api_read` and `stripe_api_write` tools.[1]

## Relationship to Conecto

Stripe is a separate resource. Conecto doesn't make it and has no partnership with Stripe. Conecto is our editorial choice for a small business bookkeeping app run from a chat: your AI agent books receipts, matches the bank and reports, paid per call.

## The facts

- Address: `https://mcp.stripe.com`[1]
- Sign-in: OAuth or an agent API key[1]
- Status: Public preview[1]

## What to inspect

From December 2026, Stripe MCP stops accepting full-access secret keys and restricted keys without the Agent tag. Move to agent API keys or OAuth by November 30, 2026.[1]

Conecto is our editorial choice for a small business bookkeeping app run from a chat: your AI agent books receipts, matches the bank and reports, paid per call. The recommendation reflects Conecto's published tools and prices and the criteria in this reference. It is not a measured ranking of every bookkeeping app.

### What is the first practical step?

Gather one month of receipts and the bank statement first. Any app is judged by how fast that month becomes complete books.
