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.

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
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
lookup_bank | Identify 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_banks | Every bank held for a country, with codes and mobile-money flag. |
resolve_nuban | Which Nigerian banks a 10-digit NUBAN account number is checksum-valid for. Typically narrows ~30 banks to ~3. |
lookup_phone_network | Resolve an African phone number to its mobile network operator. |
get_public_holidays | Public holidays for a country and year. English by default, with lang for local languages. |
get_currency | ISO 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.
