Why teams connect Braintree and Lever

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Braintree and Lever 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. Lever 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 Plans, Disputes, Add-ons and Discounts, Merchant Accounts and Disbursements in Braintree with Users, Stages, Feedback, Interviews in Lever 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 Create and update Customers and Subscriptions from a CRM or billing app when a deal closes or a plan changes, writing back to Braintree.
  • 02 Push Dispute (chargeback) records into a ticketing tool or database so ops teams track evidence deadlines and win rates.
  • 03 Push Postings and Requisitions into an HRIS or warehouse to reconcile approved headcount against open roles.
  • 04 When an Opportunity is marked hired, write the candidate and its Offer into an HRIS or onboarding system to start employee provisioning.

Common sync patterns

Department and cost-center alignment

The org structure maintained in Lever keeps the departments or cost centers in Braintree current, so spend and headcount roll up the same way.

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 Lever side flow into Braintree for posting, so the books reflect what people actually cost without manual re-entry.

What you can sync between Braintree and Lever

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 Lever objects How this pairing syncs
Customers Vaulted customer profiles that hold payment methods; created and updated two-way via the API and searchable by created/updated date range. Feedback Interview feedback and scorecard forms attached to Opportunities; created via POST /opportunities/:id/feedback and consolidated into a warehouse for interviewer analytics. Customers is specific to Braintree and Feedback to Lever — 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. Interviews Scheduled interview panel events with times and interviewers; read for scheduling reporting and time-to-hire metrics, and creatable via the panels endpoint. Transactions is specific to Braintree and Interviews to Lever — 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. Notes and Contacts Free-text Notes on Opportunities plus the underlying Contact (person) that dedupes multiple Opportunities; notes are posted via POST /opportunities/:id/notes and contact-level tags, sources, and links can be added back for attribution. Payment Methods is specific to Braintree and Notes and Contacts to Lever — 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. Opportunities The core pipeline record for a candidate applying to a role; replaced the deprecated Candidates endpoint. Created via POST /opportunities and updated (stage, archive, links, tags, sources, files) through the API, and synced two-way with a database or HRIS. Subscriptions is specific to Braintree and Opportunities to Lever — 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. Postings Job posting records with categories, apply URLs, workplace type, and requisition codes. Can be created via POST /postings and read into a warehouse for open-role reporting. Plans is specific to Braintree and Postings to Lever — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Disputes Chargebacks with evidence and deadlines; ops teams can respond and add evidence via the API, and dispute webhooks push status changes to downstream tools. Requisitions Headcount/requisition records with custom requisition fields, tied to Postings; read via GET /requisitions and synced to an HRIS to reconcile approved headcount against open roles. Disputes is specific to Braintree and Requisitions to Lever — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Braintree and Lever

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 Lever 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 Lever through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Lever Braintree Sub-second propagation

DetectionLever notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for candidate and application lifecycle events (applicationCreated, candidateStageChange, candidateArchiveStateChange, candidateHired,.

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.
  • Lever: 10 requests/second per API key with a token-bucket burst to ~20/s; POSTs that create candidates/applications are throttled to roughly 2/second. Sustained overage returns 429 with Retry-After. List endpoints are cursor-paginated at up to 100 records per page.
