Why teams connect Akeneo and Chargebee

Turn every Akeneo order into clean revenue: Chargebee and Akeneo keep customers, orders, and payment status aligned in real time, in both directions.

Akeneo runs the storefront — the catalog, the orders, and the buyers placing them. Chargebee records the money behind those orders — invoices, revenue, payments, and the ledger the business closes on. The overlap is every customer, order, and product both sides need to agree on, and when that overlap is bridged by CSV export or an overnight batch, finance reconciles against stale numbers while the store quotes prices or stock the books no longer recognize.

Stacksync syncs Credit notes, Items and item prices, Payment sources, Transactions in Chargebee with Products, Product models, Categories, Attributes in Akeneo field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — an order's totals from Akeneo, its paid-or-overdue state from Chargebee — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

The result is one shared record of who bought what and whether it has been paid, so the storefront, support, and the finance team all read from the same current data instead of re-keying it between systems.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync subscription status, plan, and MRR-relevant fields into the CRM so sales and success see billing state on the account.
  • 02 Push invoices and credit notes into an accounting system or warehouse for revenue reporting.
  • 03 Write Categories, Families, and Attributes from an ERP or supplier feed into Akeneo to build and maintain catalog structure.
  • 04 Read Reference entities records such as brands and manufacturers into a data warehouse for cross-catalog reporting.

Common sync patterns

Where Akeneo originates orders: sales flow into the books

A new or updated order in Akeneo creates or updates the matching invoice or revenue record in Chargebee, so billing and reporting start without re-entry.

Where Chargebee is the money system of record: payment status on the order

Paid, overdue, and refunded state from Chargebee lands on the order or account in Akeneo, so the store and support see what has actually been collected.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or buyer records, an edit in either propagates to the other, ending duplicate accounts and mismatched contact details.

What you can sync between Akeneo and Chargebee

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.

Akeneo objects Chargebee objects How this pairing syncs
Assets Asset-family media (images, documents) managed in Akeneo's DAM; linked to products and synced to storefronts and commerce systems. Coupons Discount definitions and redemptions used in deal-desk and reporting syncs. Assets is specific to Akeneo and Coupons to Chargebee — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Channels and locales Target-market settings that scope attribute values; read to resolve which localized or channel-specific value to map on each side of a sync. Events The change log resource that records every state change for incremental sync. Channels and locales is specific to Akeneo and Events to Chargebee — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Media files Product images and files uploaded via the media endpoint; referenced by products and pushed to downstream commerce and content systems. Customers Billing accounts matched to CRM accounts or users by email or external ID. Media files is specific to Akeneo and Customers to Chargebee — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Products Core catalog records addressed by UUID (recommended) or identifier/SKU; synced two-way with databases, ERPs, and storefronts. Values are scoped per channel and locale. Subscriptions Recurring billing state (plan, term, status) synced to CRM and product databases. Products is specific to Akeneo and Subscriptions to Chargebee — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Product models Parent records for configurable products; hold shared attribute values that cascade to their variant products, synced alongside Products. Invoices Issued billing documents synced to accounting and revenue reporting.

How changes propagate between Akeneo and Chargebee

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.

Akeneo Chargebee Sub-second propagation

DetectionAkeneo notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents.

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

Chargebee Akeneo Sub-second propagation

DetectionChargebee notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for all major object events, plus a pollable Events resource that records every change.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Akeneo: REST protection triggers above roughly 100 requests/second per PIM instance (HTTP 429 with Retry-After); the Events API caps at 4000 requests/hour with a 500ms webhook ack timeout.
  • Chargebee: Subject to plan-based API rate limits enforced per site.

How the Akeneo and Chargebee connectors work

Akeneo

Integration surface
REST API (plus a GraphQL API) and an Events API for webhooks
Authentication
OAuth2 password grant: client_id/secret plus an API user's username/password exchanged at /api/oauth/v1/token for a bearer access_token and refresh_token; Apps use the OAuth2 authorization-code flow
Change detection
Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents; product.updated.delta carries old and new values); falls back to polling the 'updated' datetime search filter where the Events API is unavailable
