MerchantHQ Card Acquirer Index
UK card-payment acquirer terms and fees from the MerchantHQ Card Acquirer Index. Read-only.
What it does
MerchantHQ Card Acquirer Index is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
From the publisher's description, Electra Index matched it to one capability: payments. That makes it a candidate for tasks such as detect fraudulent transactions or buy products online.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence) and are not a test of the tool.

What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
