List events, open dates, orders, payments, vouchers and coupons in bookingkit. For tour, activity and attraction providers who take bookings in bookingkit. Hosted by usefulapi — connect from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"bookingkit": {
"url": "https://bookingkit.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"bookingkit": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://bookingkit.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.
List the orders for a range of event dates. Open each order to read the customer, the tickets and the status. Ask the assistant for the total number of guests.
bookingkit_list_orders bookingkit_get_order bookingkit_list_order_tickets
Find an event by name. List its bookable dates with open capacity for the next 14 days. Use only the dates that still have places left.
bookingkit_list_events bookingkit_list_event_dates
List the orders with the status cancelled for a date range. Read the customer name and the payments of each order to prepare a refund check.
bookingkit_list_orders bookingkit_get_order bookingkit_list_order_payments
List the gift vouchers with code, value, status and redemption data. Ask the assistant to add up the value of the vouchers that are still open.
bookingkit_list_vouchers
List the event categories and the events in one category with prices and durations. Then list the extra products and the discount coupons that are in use.
bookingkit_list_categories bookingkit_list_events bookingkit_list_products bookingkit_list_coupons
The login page asks for your API client ID and API client secret.
bookingkit support issues these on request (chat in the bookingkit admin). Ask for a vendor API client with read scopes (calendar_read, orders_read_owned). They are used only to call the API for you and to derive a private account id.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your API client ID and API client secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
Turn on the bookingkit connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
| Tool | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
bookingkit_list_vendors | read | List vendors List the vendors (bookingkit customers: tour, activity and attraction providers) the API client can access. A vendor client sees only its own vendor. bookingkit API: GET /v3/vendors. |
bookingkit_get_vendor | read | Get a vendor Get one vendor by id. bookingkit API: GET /v3/vendors/{id}. |
bookingkit_list_events | read | List events (experiences) List events (the bookable experiences, tours and activities) with prices, durations and categories. Optionally limit to one vendor. bookingkit API: GET /v3/events or GET /v3/vendors/{vendor_id}/events. |
bookingkit_get_event | read | Get an event Get one event (experience) by id: description, price categories, durations, booking rules. bookingkit API: GET /v3/events/{id}. |
bookingkit_list_event_dates | read | List dates (availability) List bookable dates with free capacity. Give event_id for one event, else all events. Use available=true to see only dates with free places. bookingkit API: GET /v3/events/{id}/dates or GET /v3/dates. |
bookingkit_list_orders | read | List orders (bookings) List orders (bookings) with customer, tickets and status. Filter by order date, event date, status or order code. Optionally limit to one vendor. bookingkit API: GET /v3/orders or GET /v3/vendors/{id}/orders. |
bookingkit_get_order | read | Get an order Get one order by id: customer, tickets, price, status, additional fields. bookingkit API: GET /v3/orders/{id}. |
bookingkit_list_order_payments | read | List payments of an order List the payments recorded for one order. bookingkit API: GET /v3/orders/{id}/payments. |
bookingkit_list_order_tickets | read | List tickets of an order List the tickets (one per booked event date and price category) of one order. bookingkit API: GET /v3/orders/{id}/tickets. |
bookingkit_list_categories | read | List categories List event categories. Use the ids to filter bookingkit_list_events. bookingkit API: GET /v3/categories. |
bookingkit_list_products | read | List products List additional products (extras such as merchandise or add-ons) sold with bookings. bookingkit API: GET /v3/products. |
bookingkit_list_vouchers | read | List vouchers List gift vouchers with code, value, status and redemption data. bookingkit API: GET /v3/vouchers. |
bookingkit_list_coupons | read | List coupons List discount coupons. bookingkit API: GET /v3/coupons. |

bookingkit_usage_status | Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. | |
bookingkit_request_feature | Request a missing feature Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the bookingkit tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. | |
bookingkit_upgrade | Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*) Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on bookingkit (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. | |
bookingkit_cancel_subscription | Cancel the Pro subscription Cancel the caller's bookingkit Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run bookingkit_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter. |
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | Unlimited* |
*Pro fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month on this server. For more, write to [email protected].
Pro covers this bookingkit server only. Subscribe with bookingkit_upgrade (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). Cancel any time with bookingkit_cancel_subscription: Pro continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and running bookingkit_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
See the bookings for next weekend. Check open places for a tour. Review cancelled orders of last month. Find gift vouchers that nobody redeemed. Review the offer: events, extras and coupons. See what you can do for the details.
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by bookingkit. The server calls the bookingkit API with your own bookingkit access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your API client ID and API client secret. See Before you connect for where to find them.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your API client ID and API client secret. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the bookingkit API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in bookingkit.
All 14 bookingkit tools are marked read-only.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this bookingkit server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run bookingkit_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run bookingkit_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run bookingkit_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with bookingkit_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
