faq:
  - q: How do I connect OpenClaw to BlindPay?
    a: "Add the BlindPay MCP server to OpenClaw with: openclaw mcp add blindpay --command npx --arg -y --arg @blindpaylabs/blindpay-mcp, plus your BLINDPAY_API_KEY and BLINDPAY_INSTANCE_ID as env vars. OpenClaw can then call BlindPay tools to create quotes, run payouts, and manage customers."
  - q: Can OpenClaw move money with BlindPay?
    a: "Yes. OpenClaw is an autonomous agent that makes sequential tool calls. Through the BlindPay MCP server it creates quotes, executes payouts across blockchains and local rails, creates virtual accounts, and configures webhooks: agentic stablecoin payments."
  - q: Do I also need Agent Skills with OpenClaw?
    a: "Recommended. Agent Skills give OpenClaw structured knowledge of BlindPay's rails, corridors, fees, and API patterns, so its money-movement flows are correct."

[OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai){target="_blank"} is an open-source autonomous AI agent that runs locally and makes sequential tool calls to get work done. Connect it to BlindPay with the **MCP server** and **Agent Skills** for agentic stablecoin payments.

## Add the MCP server

Install BlindPay's MCP server through OpenClaw's MCP registry:

```bash [Terminal]
openclaw mcp add blindpay \
  --command npx \
  --arg -y \
  --arg @blindpaylabs/blindpay-mcp \
  --env BLINDPAY_API_KEY=your-api-key \
  --env BLINDPAY_INSTANCE_ID=your-instance-id
```

Or add it directly under `mcp.servers` in your OpenClaw config:

```json [OpenClaw config]
{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "blindpay": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "@blindpaylabs/blindpay-mcp"],
        "env": {
          "BLINDPAY_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
          "BLINDPAY_INSTANCE_ID": "your-instance-id"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Verify the server is reachable:

```bash [Terminal]
openclaw mcp doctor blindpay --probe
```

## Add Agent Skills

```bash [Terminal]
npx skills add blindpaylabs/blindpay-skills
```

## Use it

::c-steps

### Get your credentials

Copy your API key and instance ID from the [BlindPay dashboard](https://app.blindpay.com/sign-up){target="_blank"}.

### Add the MCP server

Run the `openclaw mcp add` command above (or edit the config), then reload.

### Ask the agent

Tell OpenClaw:

```text [OpenClaw prompt]
Use the BlindPay MCP tools to create a payout quote for 1000 USDC to a USD bank
account, show the fees and FX rate, then execute the payout after I confirm.
```

::

::c-alert{icon="circle-info"}
OpenClaw runs autonomously and chains tool calls. Keep money-movement gated on explicit confirmation, and scope the API key to what the agent should do.
