Why teams connect Adyen and BambooHR

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Adyen and BambooHR share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.

Adyen runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. BambooHR runs the people side: who works here, which team they sit in, and how their employment changes over time. The two overlap on the same people and the same org structure, because every employee is also a payee and every department is also a cost center. When that overlap is maintained by hand, a new hire, a transfer, or a termination has to be keyed twice, and the two systems start to disagree about who is active and where the cost lands.

Stacksync syncs Users and API Credentials, Webhook Configurations, Settlement Detail Reports, Payments in Adyen with Job Information, Compensation, Time Off, Employment Status in BambooHR bi-directionally and in real time. A person added, updated, or deactivated on either side appears on the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.

That matters most when money follows a people event. A hire that finance can pay, a leaver whose access ends, a transfer that redirects cost to the right team, all happen from one change instead of two, so headcount and spend reconcile from the same set of records.

Common use cases

  • 01 Ingest AUTHORISATION, CAPTURE, REFUND, and CHARGEBACK webhooks into Postgres or a warehouse so finance reconciles Adyen settlements against orders in an ERP without manual report exports.
  • 02 Trigger a capture, refund, or cancel on an Adyen payment when an order's state changes in a CRM, OMS, or ERP, and write the returned pspReference and status back onto the record.
  • 03 Feed Compensation and custom-table data to a warehouse for HR analytics with field-level access control.
  • 04 Sync Employees and Employment Status to identity and IT systems so new hires are provisioned and departures deactivated automatically.

Common sync patterns

Status changes propagate

A role, department, or employment-status change in either system updates the other within seconds, so cost allocation, access, and reporting reflect the current state.

People-driven costs land in finance

Compensation, reimbursements, or other costs tied to a person on the BambooHR side flow into Adyen for posting, so the books reflect what people actually cost without manual re-entry.

New person becomes a known record in finance

When someone is added in BambooHR, a matching employee or payee record appears in Adyen, ready for payroll, expenses, or cost allocation without anyone rekeying the details.

What you can sync between Adyen and BambooHR

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Adyen objects BambooHR objects How this pairing syncs
Stores Physical and online store entities under a merchant account (Management API); full CRUD, so new locations and their payment-method configuration can be provisioned from an internal admin source. Custom Tables Company-specific effective-dated tables (assets, training, certifications); rows read and written so custom HR data isn't trapped in the HRIS. Stores is specific to Adyen and Custom Tables to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and API Credentials Customer Area users and API-credential objects managed via the Management API; created, updated, and deprovisioned to keep Adyen access aligned with an IdP or HR source. Reports Saved company reports retrievable via API; read out on a schedule to feed a warehouse without rebuilding field-by-field queries. Users and API Credentials is specific to Adyen and Reports to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhook Configurations Per-company or per-merchant webhook subscriptions (Management API); created, listed, and updated to control which events Adyen sends and to which endpoint and HMAC key. Employees The core person record with personal and work fields; read out to identity, payroll, and IT systems, and written back from recruiting or onboarding tools. Webhook Configurations is specific to Adyen and Employees to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Settlement Detail Reports Downloadable reports of settled transactions, fees, and payouts per merchant account; read-only, delivered when a report webhook fires, and loaded for finance reconciliation. Job Information Effective-dated job title, department, division, location, and reporting line; synced so org charts and provisioning systems track internal moves. Settlement Detail Reports is specific to Adyen and Job Information to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Payments Checkout API payment requests and results (/payments); created to authorize a card, wallet, or local payment, and retrieved by pspReference. Final state arrives asynchronously via the AUTHORISATION webhook. Compensation Effective-dated pay rate, schedule, and change reason; read into planning and payroll systems with access restricted to authorized fields. Payments is specific to Adyen and Compensation to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Modifications (Captures, Refunds, Cancels) Actions on an authorized payment via /payments/{pspReference}/captures, /refunds, and /cancels; written to settle, return, or void funds, with results confirmed by CAPTURE and REFUND webhooks. Time Off Requests, balances, and policies; read for absence calendars and capacity planning, with approved requests written from an external scheduling tool. Modifications (Captures, Refunds, Cancels) is specific to Adyen and Time Off to BambooHR — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adyen and BambooHR

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Adyen BambooHR Sub-second propagation

DetectionAdyen notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Standard webhooks for payment events (AUTHORISATION, CAPTURE, REFUND, CHARGEBACK, and more) plus Management, Balance Platform, and report webhooks.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to BambooHR through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

BambooHR Adyen Sub-second propagation

DetectionBambooHR notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. The Get Updated Employee IDs endpoint (last-changed timestamps) returns employees inserted, updated, or deleted since a cursor for efficient polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Adyen through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adyen: Adyen does not publish fixed numeric rate limits; excessive requests return HTTP 429, and the Management API reports 'too many requests' in the error detail. Adyen recommends exponential backoff, and no rate-limit response headers are documented.
  • BambooHR: Requests are rate-limited per API key with standard REST throttling (429 on excess); bulk reads are best done through saved Reports or the updated-IDs delta endpoint rather than per-employee calls.
