It gives your agent 121 Recharge actions (46 reads, 52 writes and 23 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Recharge credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Recharge's limits and records every call. [Connect Recharge free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing) 100,000 free calls a month.

Under the `human` policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after. do recharge.products.delete confirm_policy: **human** Delete a product? **intent:** the user asked me to delete a product run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _recharge-agent_ cannot confirm itself In the console, or from an emailed signed link. a key for this connector ``` account { op: "keys.create", name: "recharge-agent", allowed_actions: ["recharge.*"], cap_calls: 2000, confirm_policy: "human_for_writes", approval_rules: [ { match: "recharge.products.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }, { match: "recharge.orders.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }, { match: "recharge.customers.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" } ] } ``` Illustrative.

The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "recharge" } lists exactly what to paste. **Can an AI agent delete or change things in Recharge?** Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 23 Recharge actions are destructive, including delete a product, delete an order and delete a customer. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it. **Will an AI agent use up my Recharge API limit?** actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Recharge service file: 40 calls per 20 seconds per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (45 Recharge actions can be), which never reaches Recharge. **What does a Recharge action cost?** One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (121 Recharge actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Recharge refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000. **Which Recharge API does it cover?** The Recharge API 2021-11 (X-Recharge-Version: 2021-11) at api.rechargeapps.com. It is built from Recharge's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 121 actions in 26 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0). **Does actionlake keep my Recharge data, and where?** actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Recharge credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models. **Which AI clients can use it?** Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names. ## More connectors like Recharge Shares the most action names with - [WooCommerce 28](https://actionlake.com/connectors/woocommerce) - [BigCommerce 27](https://actionlake.com/connectors/bigcommerce) - [commercetools 20](https://actionlake.com/connectors/commercetools) - [Squarespace Commerce 19](https://actionlake.com/connectors/squarespace-commerce) - [Adobe Commerce 18](https://actionlake.com/connectors/adobe-commerce) - [Flipdish 14](https://actionlake.com/connectors/flipdish) Joins with, on shared entities - [Polar 4](https://actionlake.com/connectors/polar) - [SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/sap-s-4hana-cloud-public-edition) - [Chargebee 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/chargebee) - [Whop 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/whop) - [Airwallex 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/airwallex) - [Stripe 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/stripe) Browse - [All Commerce connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors/category/commerce) - [All connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors) - [How actionlake compares](https://actionlake.com/compare) actionlake is independent.
