## MCP tools (18)

### `get_portals` (~383 tokens)

List cashback portals

Returns the cashback portals GotCashback compares, optionally for one country, each with its payout terms. Use it to list the portals available in a country ('which cashback portals are there in Canada?') or to compare portals side by side — which pays fastest, has the lowest minimum payout, offers PayPal, or gives the biggest sign-up bonus. It does not return store rates: for 'which portal has the best cashback for [store]' call get_cashback_rates_by_store_name instead; for one named portal use get_portals_by_name. Each portal includes its payout terms for that country: 'sign_up_bonus' (amount and the url that grants it, null when none), 'minimum_payout' with 'minimum_payout_currency' (smallest balance paid out, null when not published, 0 means no minimum), 'payment_frequency' (how often it pays, e.g. 'On demand', 'Weekly', 'Monthly'), and 'payment_methods' (payout options, e.g. 'PayPal', 'Direct deposit', 'Check', 'Gift card'). Use these to answer questions about a portal's sign-up bonus, payout threshold, payment schedule and payment options. When mentioning a sign-up bonus, show its 'url' as a clickable link — the bonus is only credited when the user signs up through it.

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string|null): Optional. Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that limits results to one country, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Aus…

Output parameters:

- `portals` (array)

### `get_cashback_rates_by_store_id` (~225 tokens)

Cashback rates by store ID

Returns the current online and in-store cashback rates from every cashback portal for one store identified by its numeric store_id, so the user can compare every portal and see the best. Use it only when a store_id is already known from an earlier result (a store, deals, favorites or alerts response). When the user gives a store name instead, call get_cashback_rates_by_store_name directly — do not look the id up first. Returns an error when the id does not exist. Rates reflect GotCashback's current data, refreshed several times a day. Present every returned portal's rate to the user (a table with a link column, not only the best one) and always show each rate's 'url' as a clickable link — cashback is only credited when the user clicks through it.

Input parameters:

- `store_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric store_id, taken from an earlier result (a store, cashback rate, gift card, deals, favorites or alerts response). If you only have a store name, use the by-name tool instead.

Output parameters:

- `store` (object): A store (retailer) in one country, with its current cashback rates when returned by a cashback tool.

### `get_countries` (~95 tokens)

Supported countries

Returns the countries GotCashback covers, each with the lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 'code' to pass as country_code to the other tools (the United Kingdom is 'gb'). Use it only to confirm whether a country is supported or which code to use; it is not needed before store, cashback or gift card lookups — those tools accept country_code directly and search all countries when it is omitted.

Output parameters:

- `countries` (array)

### `get_gift_cards_by_store_id` (~209 tokens)

Gift card discounts by store ID

Returns the discounted gift cards currently on sale for one store identified by its numeric store_id, from multiple sellers, so the discounts can be compared. Use it only when a store_id is already known from an earlier result. When the user gives a store name instead, call get_gift_cards_by_store_name directly — do not look the id up first. Returns an empty list when no discounted cards are available and an error when the id does not exist. Present every returned seller's listing to the user (a table with a link column, not only the best discount) and always show each gift card's 'url' as a clickable link — that tracked link is where the user buys the card at the discounted price.

Input parameters:

- `store_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric store_id, taken from an earlier result (a store, cashback rate, gift card, deals, favorites or alerts response). If you only have a store name, use the by-name tool instead.

Output parameters:

- `gift_cards` (array): Gift card listings from all sellers. Empty when none are available right now.

### `get_portals_by_name` (~445 tokens)

Search portals by name

Searches cashback portals by name (e.g. 'Rakuten', 'TopCashback', 'Honey') and returns each match with its payout terms, one entry per country the portal operates in. Use it when the user asks about a named portal: its sign-up bonus, minimum payout, how often it pays, or which payout methods it offers. For a store's cashback rate at that portal, call get_cashback_rates_by_store_name and read the 'portal' field of each rate instead. Each portal includes its payout terms for that country: 'sign_up_bonus' (amount and the url that grants it, null when none), 'minimum_payout' with 'minimum_payout_currency' (smallest balance paid out, null when not published, 0 means no minimum), 'payment_frequency' (how often it pays, e.g. 'On demand', 'Weekly', 'Monthly'), and 'payment_methods' (payout options, e.g. 'PayPal', 'Direct deposit', 'Check', 'Gift card'). Use these to answer questions about a portal's sign-up bonus, payout threshold, payment schedule and payment options. When mentioning a sign-up bonus, show its 'url' as a clickable link — the bonus is only credited when the user signs up through it.

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string|null): Optional. Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that limits results to one country, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Aus…
- `portal_name` (string, required): The cashback portal name as users say it, e.g. 'Rakuten', 'TopCashback', 'Honey', 'Quidco'. Matched case-insensitively at word boundaries (exact, prefix, then word), best match first; a partial-word…

Output parameters:

- `portals` (array)

### `get_stores_by_country` (~243 tokens)

List stores in a country

Lists every store that currently has cashback offers in one country — identity, store page url and whether discounted gift cards exist ('has_gift_cards', 'gift_cards_url'), but no rates. The list can run to hundreds of stores. Use it when the user wants to browse or count what is available in a country ('which stores offer cashback in Canada?', 'what stores have gift card deals in the UK?'). Do not use it to find a particular store or its rates: get_cashback_rates_by_store_name and get_gift_cards_by_store_name accept a store name plus an optional country_code directly. Use get_countries to see the supported country codes. When presenting stores, include each store's 'url' as a clickable link (and 'gift_cards_url' when present).

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string, required): Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Australia). Call get_countries to list every sup…

Output parameters:

- `stores` (array): Matching stores (one entry per country). Empty when nothing matched.

### `get_my_alerts` (~106 tokens)

My alerts

Returns the signed-in user's cashback and gift card alerts. Use it for 'what alerts do I have?' or before changing an alert. Each alert carries store_id, alert_type ('cashback' or 'gift_card'), threshold_percent and the last notification; pass store_id and alert_type straight to set_store_alert or remove_store_alert — the values are identical. Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account and the 'alerts' scope; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize.

Output parameters:

- `alerts` (array): The user's alerts, newest first. Empty when they have none.

### `get_gift_cards_by_store_name` (~490 tokens)

Gift card discounts by store name

Finds a store by name and returns the discounted gift cards currently on sale for it from multiple gift card sellers — face value, price, discount percent, digital or physical — so the user can compare every seller and see the best discount. This is the preferred first call for any gift card question that names a store: 'best gift card discount for Gap', 'where can I buy discounted Instacart gift cards', 'compare Home Depot gift card discounts', 'current Target gift card deals'. No prior lookup is needed. Returns every matching store (best match first, one entry per country), each with its 'gift_cards' list and a 'gift_cards_url' page; an empty 'gift_cards' list means no discounted cards right now. Use get_gift_cards_by_store_id only when a store_id is already known, and get_cashback_rates_by_store_name when the user asks about cashback rates instead. Present every returned seller's listing to the user (a table with a link column, not only the best discount) and always show each gift card's 'url' as a clickable link — that tracked link is where the user buys the card at the discounted price. Also mention the store's 'gift_cards_url' page.

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string|null): Optional. Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that limits results to one country, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Aus…
- `store_name` (string, required): The retailer or brand name as a shopper would say it, e.g. 'Walmart', 'Nike', 'Best Buy', 'Expedia', 'Home Depot'. Matched case-insensitively at word boundaries of the store name and its known altern…

Output parameters:

- `stores` (array): Matching stores (one entry per country). Empty when nothing matched.

### `get_my_profile` (~74 tokens)

My profile

Returns the signed-in user's GotCashback profile (name, email, avatar). Use it when the user asks who they are signed in as or wants their account details. Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize. All comparison tools work without signing in. Scope: 'profile'.

Output parameters:

- `profile` (object): The signed-in user's GotCashback account profile.

### `get_stores_by_name` (~403 tokens)

Search stores by name

Searches stores by name and returns the matching stores' identity only — store_id, name, country_code, website domain and GotCashback store page url — without cashback rates or gift cards. Use it when the user wants to know whether GotCashback covers a store, in which countries a store is listed, or when you need a store_id for the account tools (toggle_favorite_store, set_store_alert). For any question about cashback rates or gift card discounts call get_cashback_rates_by_store_name or get_gift_cards_by_store_name directly instead — they search by name themselves, so this tool is not a required first step. Returns matches best first; empty when nothing matched. When presenting stores, include each store's 'url' as a clickable link (and 'gift_cards_url' when present).

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string|null): Optional. Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that limits results to one country, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Aus…
- `store_name` (string, required): The retailer or brand name as a shopper would say it, e.g. 'Walmart', 'Nike', 'Best Buy', 'Expedia', 'Home Depot'. Matched case-insensitively at word boundaries of the store name and its known altern…

Output parameters:

- `stores` (array): Matching stores (one entry per country). Empty when nothing matched.

### `get_portal_by_id` (~277 tokens)

Portal by ID

Returns one cashback portal by its numeric id (the 'id' from a get_portals or get_portals_by_name result) with its payout terms for that country. Use it only when the id is already known; when the user names a portal, call get_portals_by_name instead. Returns an error when the id does not exist. Each portal includes its payout terms for that country: 'sign_up_bonus' (amount and the url that grants it, null when none), 'minimum_payout' with 'minimum_payout_currency' (smallest balance paid out, null when not published, 0 means no minimum), 'payment_frequency' (how often it pays, e.g. 'On demand', 'Weekly', 'Monthly'), and 'payment_methods' (payout options, e.g. 'PayPal', 'Direct deposit', 'Check', 'Gift card'). Use these to answer questions about a portal's sign-up bonus, payout threshold, payment schedule and payment options. When mentioning a sign-up bonus, show its 'url' as a clickable link — the bonus is only credited when the user signs up through it.

Input parameters:

- `portal_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric portal id, taken from the 'id' field of an earlier get_portals or get_portals_by_name result.

Output parameters:

- `portal` (object): A cashback portal in one country, with the payout terms it offers there.

### `get_cashback_rates_by_store_name` (~529 tokens)

Cashback rates by store name

Finds a store by name and returns its current cashback rates from every cashback portal that lists it — online and in-store, percentage or fixed amount, with 'up to' flags — so the user can compare every portal and see the best. This is the preferred first call for any cashback question that names a store: 'best cashback for Walmart', 'highest Nike cashback', 'cashback at Expedia', 'Walmart cashback today', 'compare Walmart cashback portals', 'Best Buy in-store cashback', 'Dell cashback in Germany'. No prior lookup is needed — do not call get_stores_by_name, get_stores_by_country or get_countries first. Returns every matching store (best match first, one entry per country), each with its 'cashback_rates'; an empty list means no match — retry with a shorter name or without country_code. Use get_cashback_rates_by_store_id only when a store_id is already known, get_gift_cards_by_store_name for gift card discounts, and get_best_deals_by_brand when the user asks where to buy a brand's products rather than about a specific store. Rates reflect GotCashback's current data, refreshed several times a day. Present every returned portal's rate to the user (a table with a link column, not only the best one) and always show each rate's 'url' as a clickable link — cashback is only credited when the user clicks through it.

Input parameters:

- `country_code` (string|null): Optional. Lowercase ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that limits results to one country, e.g. 'us' (United States), 'ca' (Canada), 'gb' (United Kingdom — use 'gb', not 'uk'), 'de' (Germany), 'au' (Aus…
- `store_name` (string, required): The retailer or brand name as a shopper would say it, e.g. 'Walmart', 'Nike', 'Best Buy', 'Expedia', 'Home Depot'. Matched case-insensitively at word boundaries of the store name and its known altern…

Output parameters:

- `stores` (array): Matching stores (one entry per country). Empty when nothing matched.

### `set_store_alert` (~300 tokens)

Set a store alert

Creates or updates an alert that emails the signed-in user when a store's cashback rate or gift card discount reaches the threshold percent or higher. Use it for 'alert me when Nike cashback hits 10%' or 'tell me when Target gift cards are 15% off'. Re-saving an existing alert updates its threshold and re-arms it. At most 10 active alerts per user. Needs the store_id: take it from an earlier result, or find it with get_stores_by_name (optionally with country_code). Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account and the 'alerts' scope; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize.

Input parameters:

- `alert_type` (string, required): Alert type: 'cashback' (fires on the store's best flat cash rate: 'up to' rates and airline miles, credit card and points portals are ignored) or 'gift_card' (fires on the store's best gift card disc…
- `store_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric store_id, taken from an earlier result (a store, cashback rate, gift card, deals, favorites or alerts response). If you only have a store name, use the by-name tool instead.
- `threshold_percent` (number, required): Fire when the rate/discount reaches this percent or higher (greater than 0, at most 100), e.g. 10 for 10%

### `toggle_favorite_store` (~176 tokens)

Add or remove a favorite store

Adds a store to, or removes it from, the signed-in user's favorite stores. Use it for 'add Best Buy to my favorites' or 'remove Nike from my favorites'. Needs the store_id: take it from an earlier result, or find it with get_stores_by_name (optionally with country_code). Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize. All comparison tools work without signing in. Scope: 'favorites'.

Input parameters:

- `favorite` (boolean, required): true to add the store to favorites, false to remove it
- `store_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric store_id, taken from an earlier result (a store, cashback rate, gift card, deals, favorites or alerts response). If you only have a store name, use the by-name tool instead.

### `get_my_favorite_stores` (~92 tokens)

My favorite stores

Returns the signed-in user's favorite stores (with their store_id). Use it when the user asks about 'my favorites' or 'my saved stores'; pair the store_ids with get_cashback_rates_by_store_id to report current rates for them. Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize. All comparison tools work without signing in. Scope: 'favorites'.

Output parameters:

- `stores` (array): The user's favorite stores. Empty when they have none.

### `remove_store_alert` (~212 tokens)

Remove a store alert

Removes the signed-in user's alert for a store and alert type ('cashback' or 'gift_card'). Use it for 'stop alerting me about Nike cashback'. Use get_my_alerts to find the store_id and alert_type of an existing alert and pass both through unchanged. Requires OAuth sign-in with a GotCashback account and the 'alerts' scope; anonymous callers are prompted to authorize.

Input parameters:

- `alert_type` (string, required): Alert type: 'cashback' (fires on the store's best flat cash rate: 'up to' rates and airline miles, credit card and points portals are ignored) or 'gift_card' (fires on the store's best gift card disc…
- `store_id` (integer, required): GotCashback's numeric store_id, taken from an earlier result (a store, cashback rate, gift card, deals, favorites or alerts response). If you only have a store name, use the by-name tool instead.

### `get_best_deals_by_brand` (~357 tokens)

Best deals for a brand

Finds where to buy a brand's products with the most savings: returns the matching brands and, for each, the stores carrying it ranked by best current cashback rate, then best gift card discount. Use it when the user names a product brand rather than a specific retailer — 'where is the best cashback for Adidas products?', 'cheapest place to buy Apple products with cashback'. When the user names a retailer ('Nike cashback' meaning the Nike store), call get_cashback_rates_by_store_name instead; for a type of product use get_best_deals_by_category. Returns up to 5 matching brands, best match first; empty when nothing matched. Rates reflect GotCashback's current data, refreshed several times a day. Always show each store's links to the user: best_cashback_rate.url (clickable link that activates the cashback) and gift_cards_url (where to buy the discounted gift cards).

Input parameters:

- `brand_name` (string, required): The product brand name, e.g. 'Adidas', 'Dyson', 'LEGO'. Matched case-insensitively at word boundaries of the brand name and its alternate names, best match first; multi-word names fall back to matchi…

Output parameters:

- `matches` (array): Matched brands / categories (up to 5, best match first). Empty when nothing matched.

### `get_best_deals_by_category` (~358 tokens)

Best deals for a category

Finds where to buy products from a shopping category with the most savings: returns the matching categories and, for each, the stores in it ranked by best current cashback rate, then best gift card discount. Use it when the user names a type of product or a category rather than a store or brand — 'where can I buy dog food with the biggest discount?', 'best cashback for electronics', 'travel booking sites with cashback'. For a specific retailer use get_cashback_rates_by_store_name; for a product brand use get_best_deals_by_brand. Returns up to 5 matching categories, best match first; empty when nothing matched. Rates reflect GotCashback's current data, refreshed several times a day. Always show each store's links to the user: best_cashback_rate.url (clickable link that activates the cashback) and gift_cards_url (where to buy the discounted gift cards).
