Paddle events, straight into Pushover
Every transaction, renewal, or failed payment — posted to Pushover the moment it happens. No Pushover app to install, no monthly automation subscription.
The gap this fills: Paddle doesn't ship an official Pushover app. If you want transaction, renewal, or failed payment to show up in Pushover the moment it happens, the usual options are a paid third-party bot, custom code, or routing everything through a $20–50/month automation platform just to move one webhook from one URL to another. ZestyGlue does exactly that one thing for $9/month.
What it looks like
ZestyGlue
Paddle — Transaction · Completed
29.00 USD
A real Paddle event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for Pushover.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new Paddle → Pushover connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point Paddle at it. Go to Developer Tools → Notifications → add destination, paste in your ZestyGlue webhook URL, and select the events you want.
- Copy the secret key. Paddle shows a secret key for your notification destination — paste that into ZestyGlue's connector setup so every event can be verified as genuinely from Paddle.
- Point Pushover at ZestyGlue. Create an application at pushover.net → Create an Application for an API token, then copy your User Key from your dashboard — enter both into ZestyGlue.
Under the hood: Paddle signs its payload with a timestamped HMAC in the paddle-signature header — ZestyGlue verifies both the signature and, implicitly, that the request wasn't replayed from days ago.

Questions
Is my Paddle Webhook Secret Key safe with ZestyGlue?
It's encrypted at rest with Fernet symmetric encryption before it ever touches disk, it's never logged, and it's never displayed again in the dashboard after you enter it — only a masked placeholder is shown.
Does this work with Paddle Classic or only Paddle Billing?
This connector is built for Paddle's current Billing API (v2) webhook format. Paddle Classic uses a different payload shape and isn't supported.
Can I track failed renewals separately?
Yes — subscribe to transaction.payment_failed as its own event alongside transaction.completed.
Is there a cost for the Pushover app itself?
Pushover charges a small one-time fee per platform for the app itself, separate from ZestyGlue's $9/month — it's not a subscription.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on Paddle's side — Paddle never sees a failure response, so it won't retry aggressively or flag your webhook as broken. Your dashboard will simply stop showing new events until you resubscribe.
