TriggerStripeReal-timeUpdated May 2026
How do I trigger when a Stripe payment succeeds?
Short answer: Drop the "Stripe → Payment Succeeded" trigger on your workflow canvas, add filters if you want them, and publish. It fires within seconds of the event in Stripe, not on a polling schedule.

FAQ
Questions about Payment Succeeded.
How does the Payment Succeeded trigger work in Stripe?
Fires when a payment is successfully completed in Stripe (payment_intent.succeeded). The standard post-charge hook for fulfillment, receipts, and revenue recognition.
Is the Payment Succeeded trigger real-time?
Yes. Payment Succeeded uses webhooks or push subscriptions, not polling. Your workflow fires within seconds of the event happening in Stripe.
What data does Payment Succeeded return?
The full event payload from Stripe. The output shape table on this page lists every field, its type, and an example value so you can map fields into downstream nodes.
Can I filter Payment Succeeded so only some events start a workflow?
Yes. Add a Filter node right after the trigger and match on any field, whether that's subject, sender, status, or anything else in the payload. Workflows only continue when the filter passes.
Do I need Stripe admin permissions to use Payment Succeeded?
For most Stripe accounts a standard user can authorize the trigger. Some Stripe plans require an admin to enable third-party webhooks. Check Stripe's docs if the trigger fails to register.
