1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Stripe and Mailercloud Integration

To start integrating Stripe with Mailercloud, the first step is to access Pabbly Connect. This powerful automation tool allows you to create workflows without needing coding skills. Begin by signing into your Pabbly Connect account or create a free account if you haven’t already.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard. Here, you will see a button labeled ‘Create Workflow’. Click on it to set up your automation, naming it something like ‘Stripe Customers in Mailercloud Automatically’. After naming your workflow, click the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

2. Configuring the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will set up the trigger that will initiate the workflow whenever a new customer is added in Stripe. Click on the ‘Choose App’ field and select Stripe as your trigger application. Then, choose the trigger event; in this case, select ‘New Charge’ to trigger the workflow when a payment is successfully completed.

• Select Stripe from the app list.
• Choose ‘New Charge’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Next, navigate to your Stripe dashboard. Under the ‘Developers’ section, click on ‘Webhooks’ to set up a new endpoint. Paste the copied webhook URL into the endpoint URL field, add a description, and select the event ‘Charge.succeeded’. Click ‘Add Endpoint’ to finalize this setup. This allows Stripe to communicate with Pabbly Connect.

3. Testing the Integration with Stripe

To ensure everything is functioning correctly, you need to perform a test payment in Stripe. This will help capture the customer data in Pabbly Connect. Go back to Stripe in test mode and create a test payment. Fill in the necessary details, including customer information like name and email, and submit the payment.

Once the payment is successful, return to Pabbly Connect. You should see the response from Stripe indicating that the payment was completed. However, you might not see customer details yet. To retrieve this information, we need to set up another action in the workflow.

• Select Stripe again for the next action.
• Choose ‘Retrieve Customer by ID’ as the action event.
• Map the customer ID from the previous step.

This action will allow Pabbly Connect to fetch the complete customer details needed for Mailercloud.

4. Adding Customers to Mailercloud via Pabbly Connect

Now that we have retrieved the customer details, the next step is to connect Mailercloud to Pabbly Connect. Click on the plus icon to add another action step and select Mailercloud from the app list. Choose ‘Add Contact to List’ as the action event.

To connect to Mailercloud, you will need to provide the API key. You can find this in your Mailercloud account under the API Integrations section. Copy the API key and paste it into Pabbly Connect when prompted. After saving, select the list where you want to add the new customer.

Choose the appropriate list in Mailercloud. Map the customer’s email address and other details. Select the contact type as active.

Once you have mapped all the necessary fields, click ‘Save and send test request’ to verify that the customer is added to Mailercloud successfully. You should see the new contact appear in your specified list.

5. Finalizing the Integration and Conclusion

After confirming that the customer has been added to Mailercloud, you can finalize your workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click ‘Save’ to ensure all your settings are stored. This integration will now work automatically; every time a new charge is made in Stripe, the customer will be added to Mailercloud without any manual effort.

In summary, you have successfully set up an automated workflow using Pabbly Connect to integrate Stripe with Mailercloud. This automation will help streamline your email marketing efforts by ensuring that all new customers are automatically added to your mailing list.
