Flutterwave
Manage Flutterwave (Africa payments: payments, customers, subscriptions, transfers, refunds, payouts) from any AI agent. 10 tools, Bearer secret.
Setup
This connector wraps the Flutterwave API v3 (api.flutterwave.com/v3).
Setup:
- Sign in at https://app.flutterwave.com → Settings → API.
- Note your Secret Key (
FLWSECK_TEST-...for test,FLWSECK-...for live) AND public key (used client-side). - Set
FLUTTERWAVE_SECRET_KEY.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${FLUTTERWAVE_SECRET_KEY}.
Test vs Live: secret key prefix determines mode. Test transactions never touch real cards.
Amounts: Flutterwave uses major-unit decimal floats (₦1.50 = 1.50), unlike Paystack — pay attention.
