Why teams connect Braintree and Greenhouse

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

Braintree runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. Greenhouse 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 Subscriptions, Plans, Disputes, Add-ons and Discounts in Braintree with Scorecards, Scheduled Interviews, Users, Departments and Offices in Greenhouse 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 Push Dispute (chargeback) records into a ticketing tool or database so ops teams track evidence deadlines and win rates.
  • 02 Mirror Subscription lifecycle changes (active, past_due, canceled) driven by Braintree webhooks into an operational database that gates product access.
  • 03 Two-way sync Candidates and Applications with Postgres so recruiting-ops apps read and update stage, status, and custom fields in SQL while recruiters stay in Greenhouse.
  • 04 Write enriched or sourced Candidates from external tools into Greenhouse and keep contact fields refreshed as data changes.

Common sync patterns

People-driven costs land in finance

Compensation, reimbursements, or other costs tied to a person on the Greenhouse side flow into Braintree 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 Greenhouse, a matching employee or payee record appears in Braintree, ready for payroll, expenses, or cost allocation without anyone rekeying the details.

One employee identity

A person's name, ID, or contact details corrected in either system update the other, so finance and HR reference the same person instead of maintaining two versions.

What you can sync between Braintree and Greenhouse

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.

Braintree objects Greenhouse objects How this pairing syncs
Merchant Accounts and Disbursements The accounts funds settle into plus settlement batches paid out; disbursement webhooks and settlement batch reports drive reconciliation feeds. Offers Offer records tied to an Application with status and custom offer fields; readable and patchable, commonly synced to HRIS on hire. Merchant Accounts and Disbursements is specific to Braintree and Offers to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Vaulted customer profiles that hold payment methods; created and updated two-way via the API and searchable by created/updated date range. Scorecards Interviewer feedback and ratings tied to interviews; read-only in Harvest, exported to a warehouse for interview analytics. Customers is specific to Braintree and Scorecards to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Transactions Sales, refunds, and credits; created through the API but immutable after that (only void/refund/settle transitions), so syncs treat them as append-only with status changes. Scheduled Interviews Interview events with interviewers, times, and rooms; full create/update/delete support for calendar and reporting syncs. Transactions is specific to Braintree and Scheduled Interviews to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Payment Methods Tokenized credit cards, PayPal accounts, and other instruments stored in the Vault against a Customer; only tokens, last-four, and expiry are exposed, never raw PAN. Users Greenhouse users (recruiters, hiring managers); read and written, and referenced by the On-Behalf-Of header on every write. Payment Methods is specific to Braintree and Users to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscriptions Recurring billing agreements tied to a Plan and a Payment Method; created, updated, and canceled via the API and emitting webhooks on every lifecycle change. Departments and Offices Org structure attached to Jobs; read and written to keep reporting hierarchies aligned with an HRIS or warehouse. Subscriptions is specific to Braintree and Departments and Offices to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Plans Recurring billing plans (price, billing cycle) configured in the Control Panel; readable through the API but not creatable, so they sync one-way. Candidates Person records with contact details, tags, and custom fields; read and written via Harvest, often created from sourcing or enrichment pipelines. Plans is specific to Braintree and Candidates to Greenhouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Braintree and Greenhouse

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.

Braintree Greenhouse Sub-second propagation

DetectionBraintree notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (subscription, transaction, dispute, disbursement, payment method, account updater) for near-real-time events, plus created/updated.

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

Greenhouse Braintree Sub-second propagation

DetectionGreenhouse notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. HMAC-SHA256 signed webhooks for candidate, application, job, and interview events, plus polling list endpoints with created_after / updated_after /.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Braintree: No published hard rate limits; Braintree may throttle traffic it deems abusive and returns HTTP 429, and its docs recommend webhooks over polling with a 60-second request timeout.
  • Greenhouse: Harvest enforces a per-integration limit over a rolling 10-second window (X-RateLimit-Limit, commonly 50 requests / 10s for approved integrations); responses carry X-RateLimit-Remaining and, on a 429, X-RateLimit-Reset and Retry-After.
