Overview

AI-generated overview

Read and manage a Smile.io loyalty program from an assistant: customers, points balances and history, rewards, earning rules and VIP tiers, plus point…

What you can do
  • List and fetch loyalty customers with points balance, state and VIP tier, by email or filters
  • Review points transactions and points products (rewards redeemable with points)
  • Inspect issued reward fulfillments, earning rules, VIP tiers, and points and referral settings
  • Adjust a customer's points balance or record a customer activity that triggers earning rules
  • Redeem a customer's points for a reward on their behalf
When to use it
Useful for merchants running a Smile.io loyalty program who want to answer questions about members, points history, available rewards and tiers, or make occasional manual point adjustments and redemptions without opening the Smile admin.
Requirements
Remote hosted endpoint; no local install. Connect with the server URL only, then sign in through OAuth with your Smile.io merchant API key from Smile Admin. A free plan allows 50 tool calls per month; paid plans are billed per user.
Before you install
Write tools change loyalty data: point adjustments, recorded activities that may issue points or rewards, and redemptions that spend a customer's points and issue discount codes. Confirm with the customer before redeeming. Your Smile.io merchant API key is entered at login and stored per user by the third-party host. Paid plans involve Stripe checkout and charges, with no refund for the current period on cancellation.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Smile.io MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fsmile-io/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

README

Smile.io MCP by usefulapi

Use Smile.io from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — look up loyalty customers, points balances and history, ways to earn and redeem, issued rewards and VIP tiers, and adjust points. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Smile.io credentials.

Live endpoint: https://smile-io.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/smile-io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://smile-io.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http smile-io https://smile-io.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "smile-io": {      "url": "https://smile-io.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

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, and the login page asks for your Smile.io credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/smile-io/

On first connect you'll provide your Smile.io merchant API key (Smile Admin → Settings → Developer tools → API keys). They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.

Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run smile_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with smile_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with smile_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

Parametersemaillimitstatecursorupdated_at_mininclude_vip_status

smile_get_customer

Get a customer

Fetch one customer by Smile customer ID: name, email, state, points_balance, referral_url, vip_tier_id, and optionally their VIP status with current and next tier. Smile: GET /customers/{id}.

Parametersincludecustomer_idrequired

smile_list_points_transactions

List points transactions

List points transactions (every earn, spend and manual adjustment), newest first — e.g. a customer's full points history. Each has points_change (+/-), a customer-visible description and a merchant internal_note. Cursor-paginated. Smile: GET /points_transactions.

Parameterslimitcursorcustomer_idupdated_at_min

smile_get_points_transaction

Fetch one points transaction by ID. Smile: GET /points_transactions/{id}.

Parameterspoints_transaction_idrequired

smile_list_points_products

List points products (ways to redeem)

List points products — the rewards customers can buy with points. 'fixed' products cost points_price; 'variable' products trade variable_points_step points for variable_points_step_reward_value, between variable_points_min and variable_points_max. Each embeds its reward. Page-numbered (page, page_size); a page shorter than page_size is the last. Smile: GET /points_products.

Parameterspagepage_sizeexchange_type

smile_get_points_product

Get a points product

Fetch one points product (a way to redeem points) by ID, including its reward. Smile: GET /points_products/{id}.

Parameterspoints_product_idrequired

smile_list_reward_fulfillments

List reward fulfillments

List rewards that have been issued to customers — usually discount codes — with code, fulfillment_status (pending/issued/cancelled/failed), usage_status (used/unused/untracked), used_at and expires_at. Use customer_id to answer 'what codes does this customer have?'. Cursor-paginated. Smile: GET /reward_fulfillments.

Parameterslimitcursorcustomer_idusage_statusupdated_at_minfulfillment_status

smile_list_earning_rules

List earning rules (ways to earn)

List the enabled earning rules — the ways customers earn points or rewards (placing an order, signing up, birthdays, custom activities), with reward, reward_value, earning_limit and any VIP-tier restriction. Cursor-paginated. Smile: GET /earning_rules.

Parameterslimitcursor

smile_list_vip_tiers

List VIP tiers

List the VIP program's tiers, sorted by milestone (the threshold to reach each tier), optionally with each tier's perks and entry rewards. Smile: GET /vip_tiers.

Parametersinclude

smile_get_points_settings

Get points settings

Fetch the points program's configuration, e.g. the points currency label ("Points", "Stars"). Smile: GET /points_settings.

Takes no parameters.

smile_get_referral_settings

Get referral settings

Fetch the referral program's configuration: whether it is active, and the sender (advocate) and receiver (friend) rewards. Smile: GET /referral_settings.

Takes no parameters.

smile_create_points_transaction

Adjust a customer's points balance

WRITE: add or deduct points from a customer's balance (a manual adjustment, e.g. a goodwill credit or a correction). points_change > 0 adds, < 0 deducts; Smile rejects a deduction that would make the balance negative. Undo by creating an opposite adjustment. `description` is shown to the customer; `internal_note` is merchant-only. To reward a customer for completing an action, prefer smile_create_activity. Requires the points_transaction:write scope. Smile: POST /points_transactions.

Parameterscustomer_idrequireddescriptioninternal_notepoints_changerequired

smile_create_activity

Record a customer activity

WRITE: record that a customer performed an action (identified by an activity type token configured in Smile Admin, e.g. a custom 'newsletter signup' activity). Smile then asynchronously applies the store's earning rules and may issue points or rewards. Identify the customer by customer_id OR customer_email (exactly one). Pass distinct_id (e.g. an order number) to make it idempotent — a second activity with the same token + distinct_id is rejected. Custom activity types need Smile's Plus/Enterprise plan. Requires the activity:write scope. Smile: POST /activities.

Parameterstokenrequiredcustomer_iddistinct_idcustomer_emailcreated_on_origin_at

smile_purchase_points_product

Redeem a customer's points for a reward

WRITE — SPENDS THE CUSTOMER'S POINTS: redeem points on the customer's behalf by purchasing a points product; Smile deducts the points and issues the reward (the response's points_purchase.reward_fulfillment usually holds a discount code). Only do this when the customer asked for it. For a 'variable' product pass points_to_spend; leave it out for 'fixed' products. There is no API to cancel a redemption — a mistaken one can only be compensated with smile_create_points_transaction. Requires the points_purchase:write scope. Smile: POST /points_products/{id}/purchase.
