   Adyen's core integration is a server-to-server REST API (docs-1, docs-2) that can be called entirely headlessly with no UI dependency, supports idempotency keys for safe automated retries (adyen-docs-4, adyen-docs-25), and provides a dedicated test environment with test credentials explicitly meant for pre-production integration testing (adyen-docs-6, adyen-docs-18). Scoped, multiple API credentials support automated/service-account style access (adyen-docs-26, adyen-supp-api-credential-scoping). However, there is no explicit CI/CD pipeline documentation, no CLI/SDK testing harness, and the MCP server is documented as running locally via npx rather than as a CI-oriented headless service.

   Mollie documents scoped credential mechanisms applicable to agent use: Advanced access tokens can be scoped to a specific mode or profile, API keys are scoped per payment profile with granular permissions grouped by business area/API, and the MCP server explicitly requires profile.read plus optional per-API scopes to enable individual tools. This shows a real least-privilege model usable when provisioning an agent, but there's no dedicated 'agent credential' concept, no fine-grained per-action/per-amount limits, and no independent evidence of this being used in practice for agent scoping.

Reporting is mentioned as giving a 'visual representation of balances, sales, and payouts' (adyen-docs-10) and the Customer Area gives an overview of payment channels (adyen-docs-16), but there is no explicit evidence of a line-item payout reconciliation report breaking down which specific charges, fees, and refunds compose each payout.

   Adyen's evidence pack covers payments, payouts, risk management, and agentic commerce integrations, but there is no documentation on data retention policies, data deletion requests, or user/API-level controls to manage how long payment or transaction data is stored or how to purge it. This is a fair axis for a payments platform handling PII/PCI data, but no evidence addresses it.

   Mollie is a payments API/platform; no evidence in the pack addresses data retention policies, data deletion controls, or export/erasure mechanisms for AI-native users.
