Usage
Just ask Clawdbot to buy something from Amazon:
You: Buy this for me https://amazon.com/dp/B0DJLKV4N9
Clawdbot: I'll help you buy that! Where should I ship it?
You: John Doe, 123 Main St, San Francisco CA 94102, john@example.com, +14155551234
Clawdbot: Got it! What's your max purchase price? (I'll warn you before exceeding it)
You: $500
Clawdbot: Now I need your card details.
Your card will be securely tokenized through Stripe.
You: 4242424242424242, 12/27, 123
Clawdbot: Order placed!
Total: $361.92 (includes 4% fee)
Confirmation: RYE-ABC123
Want me to save your details for next time?
After saving, future purchases are one message:
You: Buy this https://amazon.com/dp/B0CXXX
Clawdbot: Order placed! Total: $29.99 + $1.20 fee = $31.19
How Payments Work
The short version
Your card number goes directly to Stripe (the same payment processor used by Amazon, Shopify, and most of the internet). Stripe turns it into a one-time token. That token — not your card number — is what gets sent to place the order. The Buy Anything skill and the Rye API never see your raw card details.
Under the hood

Order placed on Amazon
- You provide your card — number, expiry, CVC
- Stripe tokenizes it — your card details are sent directly to Stripe's PCI-compliant API via HTTPS. Stripe returns a one-time token (e.g.
tok_abc123) - Token is used to pay — the Rye API receives only the token to place the Amazon order. Your raw card number never touches Rye's servers
- Stripe handles the charge — Stripe processes the payment using the token, just like any online checkout
This is the same tokenization flow used by every major e-commerce site. Your card number is never stored or transmitted outside of Stripe.
Saved cards
When you save your card for future purchases, your details are stored locally in Clawdbot's memory on your device. They never leave your machine. Each time you make a purchase, Clawdbot re-tokenizes the saved card with Stripe to get a fresh one-time token.
Guardrails
Spending limit
On your first purchase, Clawdbot will ask you to set a maximum purchase price. If any order (including the 4% fee) would exceed your limit, Clawdbot will warn you and ask for confirmation before proceeding. You can say "no limit" to skip this.
You can update your limit at any time by telling Clawdbot:
You: Set my max purchase to $200
You: Remove my spending limit
Order confirmations
Every order sends an email confirmation to the address you provide, so you always have a receipt and tracking info.
