Who it is for
Treasury and finance operations staff monitoring FX and settlement positions.
Bound
Read-only view of Bound balances, payments, and FX orders
Overview
What Bound does
Bound handles currency exposure and cross-border payments. This connector reads the public API and nothing more: account balances, saved payment recipients, payments themselves, FX orders, indicative exchange rates, and settlements still to come. The publisher is explicit that the tools are read-only, so the connector inspects treasury state rather than initiating a transfer or placing an order. Ten tools are published at community tier, with an endpoint URL and documentation available.
Tool surface
Ten tools are claimed and the endpoint will not name them without a Bound key, so the read-only characterisation rests entirely on the publisher's description.
Availability
Where Bound is listed
Bound is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Bound 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
Bound publishes 10 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 45% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Finance publishes 12, so this one sits 2 tools below its bucket's median, 87th of 159.
It falls in the 7-10 tools band, which holds 14.6% of the Claude directory.
Bound 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.

Bound 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 Bound describes it
Bound MCP helps users inspect Bound account balances, payment recipients, payments, FX orders, indicative exchange rates, and upcoming settlements through read-only Public API tools.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from Bound's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with Bound, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
