Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Bold Commerce

Ask your AI what a subscriber has coming up, which orders ship next week, or to skip a customer's next box. It works with Bold Subscriptions: search customers, read subscriptions, past orders and upcoming orders, and change intervals, dates and products. It can also pause, cancel or reactivate subscriptions and apply discount codes, with your approval if you want it.

Try asking

“What subscriptions does [email protected] have, and when is her next order?”
The AI searches customers by email, lists her subscriptions and reads the next order date on each.
“Skip Jane's order on 12 November.”
It skips the subscription order on that date. She is not charged for it.
“Move subscription 88410's next order to the 1st and shift the later ones too.”
It changes the next order date and moves future orders with it. This changes when the customer is charged.

Questions

What can the AI do in Bold Commerce?

The AI can search and read subscription customers, subscriptions, subscription groups, intervals, swap options and past and upcoming orders. It can update subscriptions and customers, change intervals and next order dates, skip or restore orders, add, remove or swap products, apply discount codes, pause, cancel or reactivate subscriptions and send a payment update email.

Does the AI see my Bold Commerce credentials?

No. Your Bold API access token is encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save it, it is not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start read-only. Cancelling a subscription, removing items, reactivating, moving dates and skipping orders change what customers are charged, and emails reach customers directly. These can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your PipMCP link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

PipMCP has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Bold Commerce account with Bold Subscriptions.

Which Bold products does this cover?

This connection covers Bold Subscriptions: subscriptions, subscription orders and subscription customers. That is why the API access token needs the Subscriptions scopes plus Core Shops Read. Other Bold products are not part of these tools.
