Mansa African Financial Reference Data — MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server giving any MCP-capable agent live access to African financial reference data: bank and SWIFT/BIC codes, NUBAN account resolution, mobile network lookup, public holidays, and ISO 4217 currencies.

Hosted and maintained by Mansa API. No API key required.

Connect

Streamable HTTP endpoint:

https://mansaapi.com/api/mcp
Claude Desktop
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mansa-african-identity": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mansaapi.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Anything else

Point your MCP client at the URL above. The server speaks JSON-RPC 2.0 over Streamable HTTP and is stateless, so no session handling is required. A plain GET returns the server descriptor.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
lookup_bankIdentify an African bank from a name, bank/sort code, SWIFT/BIC or USSD shortcode. Works as a reverse lookup — pass a bare code like NLCBTZTX and get the institution back.
list_banksEvery bank held for a country, with codes and mobile-money flag.
resolve_nubanWhich Nigerian banks a 10-digit NUBAN account number is checksum-valid for. Typically narrows ~30 banks to ~3.
lookup_phone_networkResolve an African phone number to its mobile network operator.
get_public_holidaysPublic holidays for a country and year. English by default, with lang for local languages.
get_currencyISO 4217 record: code, name, symbol, decimal places, and every country using it.

Coverage

Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, Morocco, Zambia and Tanzania for banks and mobile networks; holidays and currencies span the wider continent.

Worth knowing

resolve_nuban confirms checksum validity only. The CBN NUBAN check digit is derived from the bank code plus the first nine digits of the account number, so testing a number against every bank code narrows down where it could be held — without contacting any bank.

It does not confirm that an account exists, and it never returns an account holder's name. That requires a licensed NIBSS account-name enquiry.

Mansa API also publishes io.github.HeyZod/mansa-african-markets for live African stock market data — a separate server with a different audience.
