Stripe events, straight into Slack
Every new payment, failed charge, or refund — posted to Slack the moment it happens. No $20+/month automation plan just to move one webhook.
Why not just use Slack's built-in options? Even where Stripe offers some form of Slack integration, it's often tied to one account, limited in which events it covers, or more than you need. ZestyGlue is a dedicated, always-on feed of exactly the events you choose, for $9/month instead of a full automation-platform subscription.
What it looks like
ZestyGlue
Payment Intent · Succeeded
A real Stripe event, shown as ZestyGlue formats it for Slack.
Setup — about two minutes
- Create the connector. In ZestyGlue, start a new Stripe → Slack connector. You'll get a unique webhook URL right away.
- Point Stripe at it. In the Stripe Dashboard, go to Developers → Webhooks → Add endpoint, paste in your ZestyGlue webhook URL, and select the events you want to forward.
- Copy the signing secret. Stripe shows a signing secret for your new endpoint — paste that into ZestyGlue's connector setup so every event can be verified as genuinely from Stripe.
- Point Slack at ZestyGlue. Create a Slack app (or reuse one) → Incoming Webhooks → Add New Webhook to Workspace, pick the channel, and copy the URL into ZestyGlue.
Tip: Subscribe to only the events you need in the Stripe Dashboard — payment_intent.succeeded and charge.refunded cover most “did money move” use cases without flooding your channel with every internal Stripe event.
Events you can forward
payment_intent.succeeded

Questions
Is my Stripe Webhook Signing Secret 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 replace Stripe's own email receipts or Slack app?
No — this runs alongside anything else you already have. It's specifically for getting a live feed into a destination Stripe doesn't natively support well, like Discord, Telegram, or ntfy.
Can I filter to only large payments?
Not at the ZestyGlue level yet — Stripe sends every event type you subscribe to. For most teams, seeing every payment as it happens is exactly the point.
Does this need Slack admin approval?
No app installation is required on Slack's side — an Incoming Webhook is just a URL generated once. No OAuth review, no admin approval flow.
What happens if my ZestyGlue subscription lapses?
Events are silently dropped rather than causing errors on Stripe's side — Stripe 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.
