Why teams connect Braze and Recurly

Connect the financial records in Recurly with the work happening in Braze, so both stay current without exports or copy-paste.

Recurly holds the financial truth: who the customers are, what they were billed, what they paid. Braze is where part of the day-to-day work happens, and that work often involves the same customers and transactions. Without a live connection, the two drift apart, and people end up answering questions from stale copies.

Stacksync keeps Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage in Recurly and Content Blocks, Users, Custom Attributes, Custom Events in Braze in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. Whatever records Braze keeps and whatever events it produces, the overlap with Recurly is mapped field by field, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds.

There is no middleware to build, no API rate limits to babysit, and no nightly job that leaves the morning running on yesterday's data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 02 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 03 Sync audience membership computed in the warehouse into Braze segments for targeting.
  • 04 Sync CRM and billing attributes onto Braze user profiles so lifecycle campaigns target accurate plan and status data.

Common sync patterns

Where Braze tracks people or companies: one identity

A customer's details updated in either system update the other, so finance and the rest of the business stop maintaining two versions of the same customer.

Where Braze handles customer conversations: billing context in view

Front-line teams see invoice and payment status from Recurly next to the customer they are helping, without logging into the finance system.

Where Braze collects payments or triggers charges: events land in Recurly

Payment and charge activity flows into Recurly as it happens, so the books reflect reality without manual reconciliation.

What you can sync between Braze and Recurly

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.

Braze objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Segments Audience definitions read for membership export and campaign targeting. Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Segments is specific to Braze and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Message sends whose metadata and analytics are read for reporting. Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Campaigns is specific to Braze and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Canvases Multi-step journeys; entry and performance data is read for lifecycle analysis. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Canvases is specific to Braze and Transactions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscription Groups Channel-level opt-in states synced with consent records in other systems. Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Subscription Groups is specific to Braze and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Content Blocks Reusable message content referenced across campaigns. Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Content Blocks is specific to Braze and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users The central profile object, identified by external ID, Braze ID, or user aliases; the main sync target. Billing Info Tokenized payment method (card/ACH) on an account; written when onboarding customers and read for payment-health signals (never stores raw card numbers). Users is specific to Braze and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Braze and Recurly

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.

Braze Recurly Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Braze for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Braze Currents streams engagement events outward.

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

Recurly Braze Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Braze: Endpoints have per-endpoint rate limits documented by Braze; batch endpoints accept multiple users per request.
  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
