description: 'Afriex is a cross-border payments and remittance company that moves money between Africa,
  North America, Europe and Asia. Its consumer app handles person-to-person remittances, while the Afriex
  Business API gives companies programmatic access to the same rails: customer onboarding and KYC, payment
  methods across bank accounts, mobile money, SWIFT, UPI, Interac and USDC/USDT crypto wallets, multi-currency
  wallet balances and real-time FX rates, deposits, withdrawals and in-wallet currency swaps, hosted checkout
  sessions, virtual and pool collection accounts, and RSA-signed webhooks for transaction lifecycle events.
  The API is documented with an OpenAPI 3.1 contract, a first-party TypeScript SDK, and a hosted remote
  MCP server that exposes the same surface to AI agents.'

  name: Afriex MCP Server
  description: Afriex publishes a hosted, remote Model Context Protocol server at https://mcp.afriex.com/mcp
    that exposes 26 tools covering the Business API surface — customers, transactions, payment methods,
    institutions, crypto wallets, virtual and pool accounts, checkout sessions, balances, FX rates and
    test webhook triggers. The server initializes anonymously and answers tools/list without credentials;
    API calls are authenticated per session either with x-afriex-api-key / x-afriex-environment HTTP headers
    or by calling the authenticate tool as the first action.
