Bitrefill
Gift cards, mobile top-ups and eSIMs across 180 countries
Overview
What Bitrefill does
Bitrefill sells gift cards, prepaid mobile top-ups and travel eSIMs for thousands of brands and carriers across more than 180 countries. The listing describes uses well beyond gifting: sending value to family abroad, capping spend in a category by buying a fixed-value card, buying local brand cards while travelling instead of paying foreign transaction fees, and paying at stores that reject a particular card. Connecting it makes that catalogue searchable in conversation and puts purchases in reach. Seven tools are published under the community tier, with documentation linked. A Bitrefill account and a funded payment method are the practical prerequisites.
Tool surface
Authentication is demanded up front, so the seven listed tools cannot be enumerated without a Bitrefill session and the shape of the purchase flow stays hidden.

Where Bitrefill is listed
Bitrefill is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Bitrefill has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
Claude listing
In the Claude connectors directory
Bitrefill publishes 7 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 33.4% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Commerce & Shopping publishes 5, so this one runs 2 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 15th of 35 by tool count.
It falls in the 7-10 tools band, which holds 14.6% of the Claude directory.
Bitrefill publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

Bitrefill is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.
In the publisher's words
How Bitrefill describes it
Bitrefill is a global catalog of gift cards, mobile top-ups, and eSIMs covering thousands of brands in 180+ countries: Amazon, Steam, Netflix, Spotify, Uber, Apple, Google Play, hundreds of mobile carriers, and travel data almost anywhere. That reach makes it useful for far more than gifting: - International gifting: send a present to someone in another country in seconds, with no shipping and no waiting. - Send value home: top up a relative's phone or send them a grocery or shopping card directly, instead of a slow, fee-heavy transfer. - Budgeting: set a fixed amount for a category or a family member by buying a card, rather than sharing an open account. - Travel without the markup: buy local brand cards and eSIM data instead of paying foreign transaction fees on every swipe. - Shop stores that will not take your card: buy that store's gift card and redeem it directly. - Keep your card private: check out without handing your card number to every merchant. Bitrefill has done this since 2014, with over 1 million customers. Pay with crypto or traditional payment methods, whichever you prefer. Once connected, Claude can search the catalog, compare options and prices, place an order, and return your gift card code or eSIM link right in the chat. Sign in once with your Bitrefill account, then just ask.
