Why integrate Stripe using Emergent?

Building custom Stripe integrations typically requires significant engineering effort: managing Secret Keys and Publishable Keys securely, implementing webhook signature verification for event notifications, handling idempotency for safe payment retries, mapping Stripe's payment objects to your business systems, building PCI-compliant checkout flows, and maintaining subscription lifecycle logic. Each integration can take weeks to develop and deploy securely.

Emergent eliminates this complexity:

• Build by prompt: Describe your payment workflow in plain English, "When a Stripe subscription is created, sync the customer to Salesforce, create a QuickBooks invoice, and send a welcome email," and Emergent generates the complete application.

• Stripe-aware intelligence: Emergent understands Stripe's structure (payments, subscriptions, customers, invoices, webhooks, disputes) and automatically maps data correctly across integrations while maintaining PCI compliance.

• Multi-tool orchestration: Connect Stripe with QuickBooks for automated accounting, Salesforce for CRM integration, HubSpot for marketing automation, Shopify for unified commerce, and Slack for payment monitoring, all in one workflow.

• Production-ready reliability: Built-in webhook signature verification, payment retry logic with idempotency, rate limit management, dispute handling, and audit logs ensure your payment integrations run securely at scale.

• Secure by design: Encrypted credential storage for Secret Keys, PCI-compliant architecture with secure card handling, environment isolation (dev/staging/prod), role-based access control, and compliance-friendly audit trails.

How Emergent works with Stripe in real time?

STEP 1: Describe your payment workflow

Example: "When a customer completes a Stripe checkout, automatically create a QuickBooks invoice, sync the customer to Salesforce as a closed opportunity, send a Slack notification to #sales, and trigger a welcome email sequence in HubSpot."

STEP 2: Declare your integrations

Say "Stripe + QuickBooks + Salesforce + Slack + HubSpot." Emergent configures authentication flows, API connections, and webhook subscriptions for all platforms.

STEP 3: Connect your Stripe account

Authenticate by providing your Secret Key from the Stripe Dashboard (Developers > API Keys). For client-side checkout integration, also provide your Publishable Key. Emergent stores credentials securely in an encrypted vault with environment separation.

STEP 4: Map your Stripe payment data

Emergent introspects your Stripe account to discover products, pricing plans, webhook event types, and customer data structures. You select which payment events to monitor (successful payments, failed charges, subscription changes) and which data fields to sync (for example, payment amount → QuickBooks invoice, customer email → Salesforce contact).

STEP 5: Configure triggers

Set up Stripe webhooks for real-time notifications when payments succeed, subscriptions renew, invoices are paid, or disputes are created. Add scheduled syncs for daily reconciliation or on-demand actions triggered by button clicks.

STEP 6: Test your workflow

Preview how payment data flows between systems, simulate webhook events using Stripe test mode, validate field mappings, verify webhook signatures, test idempotency for duplicate events, and review logs, all before going live.

STEP 7: Deploy in one click

Push your integration to production with monitoring, payment analytics, churn alerts, revenue tracking, and PCI-compliant infrastructure. Roll back instantly if needed.

STEP 8: Iterate and expand

Add new steps ("Also create a support ticket in Zendesk for high-value subscriptions"), connect additional tools, or modify payment logic, all through natural language prompts.
