Connect Claude & ChatGPT to UpUp

Ask your AI to send a gift through UpUp to a colleague, a customer or a whole group. It can look up the products you can send, your favourite products, saved themes, messages and recipient groups, and then create the upp by SMS, email or code. It can also tell you which upps you have sent and who received them.

Free plan, no credit card. Takes about a minute.

Try asking

  • “Which gift products can we send?”

    The AI lists the products available to your company, with name, price range and how long they are valid.

  • “Show the products we have marked as favourites.”

    It lists your company's hearted products so you can pick from the ones you use most.

  • “Send a gift to the Sales team group with our thank-you message.”

    It finds the target group, the saved message, a theme and the product, and creates the upp for everyone in the group. Gifts go to real people and may be charged to your UpUp account.

What your AI can do

Send gifts

Create upps for single recipients or a saved group, delivered by SMS, email or code, now or at a scheduled time.

Products and favourites

List the gift products you can send and the ones your company has marked as favourites.

Themes, messages and groups

Reuse your saved gift card themes, messages and recipient groups instead of setting them up each time.

  • “Schedule a gift by SMS to Anna Berg for Friday at 9:00.”

    It creates the upp with Anna as recipient, SMS as delivery method and a scheduled send time.

  • “Which upps have we sent recently?”

    It lists the upps your company has created or sent, with name and dates.

  • “Who received the gift from the kickoff?”

    It reads the upp and shows its product, message, recipients and status.

Questions

What can the AI do in UpUp?

The AI can list and read upps, list gift products and your favourite products, and list saved themes, messages and recipient groups. It can create and send an upp to recipients or a target group if you switch that tool on.

Does the AI see my UpUp API key?

No. Your UpUp credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are 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 with lookups only. Creating an upp sends gifts to real people and may be charged to your UpUp account, so it can require your approval before it runs. 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 UpUp account.

How do I get an UpUp API key?

UpUp does not have a self-serve key page. Email [email protected] from your UpUp company account and ask for an API key. When you have it, paste it into PipMCP.
