MerchantHQ Data API
MerchantHQ publishes its UK Card Acquirer Index as a read-only public API and as an MCP server for AI clients. The data is the same one behind the UK Card Acquirer Index: factual acquirer terms (headline rate, settlement timing, contract length, channels) plus regulatory identifiers where verified, and a current fees snapshot. No authentication, no personal data, released under CC BY 4.0.
REST endpoints
Base URL https://merchanthq.co.uk/api. All responses are JSON with open CORS, an ETag and edge caching. Full machine-readable contract: OpenAPI 3.1 spec.
| Method | Path | Description |

MCP server
The same data is exposed as a remote Model Context Protocol server over streamable HTTP, so MCP-capable AI clients can read it directly.
