To begin the integration of Stripe with WhatsApp, you will first need to access Pabbly Connect. Go to the Pabbly Connect website by typing the URL Pabbly.com/connect in your browser. This will bring you to the registration page.

Here, you will see options to either sign in if you are an existing user or sign up if you are new. Signing up is quick and takes less than two minutes. Once signed in, you will be redirected to the Pabbly Connect dashboard, where you can create a new workflow for your integration.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once you are on the Pabbly Connect dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. A dialog box will prompt you to name your workflow. For this integration, name it ‘Get WhatsApp Message When a New Stripe Customer is Added’ and click on ‘Create’. This sets the stage for your automation. using Pabbly Connect

• Name your workflow appropriately for easy identification.
• Select the trigger application as Stripe.
• Choose the trigger event as ‘New Customer’.

After creating the workflow, you will see two main sections: Trigger and Action. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the action is what happens as a result. In this case, the trigger application is Stripe, and the action will involve sending a WhatsApp message via another application.

3. Setting Up the Stripe Webhook

Next, you need to set up a webhook in Stripe to connect with Pabbly Connect. Copy the webhook URL generated by Pabbly Connect. Then, go to your Stripe dashboard, navigate to the ‘Developers’ section, and select ‘Webhooks’.

Click on ‘Add Endpoint’ and paste the copied URL in the URL field. Add a description, select the latest API version, and choose the event ‘Customer Created’. Finally, click on ‘Add Events’ to complete the setup. This webhook will now send data to Pabbly Connect every time a new customer is created.

4. Testing the Integration with a Dummy Customer

To test your integration, you need to create a dummy customer in Stripe. Go to the ‘Customers’ tab and click on ‘Create Customer’. Fill in the customer details such as name, email, and address, ensuring that you select the language as English (United Kingdom) and the currency as INR.

• Enter a name like ‘Smart User One’.
• Provide an email address, e.g., [email protected].
• Select the appropriate billing and shipping details.

After saving the customer, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the webhook has received the customer data. If successful, you will see the customer details captured in Pabbly Connect, which confirms that the integration is working correctly.

5. Sending WhatsApp Messages via Pabbly Connect

Now, you will set up the action to send a WhatsApp message. In Pabbly Connect, select your action application as WhatsApp. The action event will be to send a WhatsApp template message. Click on ‘Connect’ and enter your WhatsApp API key to establish the connection. using Pabbly Connect

Map the required fields such as phone number, message template, and any variables you want to include in the message. Ensure that the message template is created in your WhatsApp account and includes dynamic variables for the customer details. After mapping all the necessary fields, send a test request to verify if the WhatsApp message is delivered successfully.
