Why teams connect Chargebee and Insightly

Sync customers, invoices, and payment status between Chargebee and Insightly in real time, so sales sees the money and finance sees the relationship.

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. Insightly knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Chargebee knows the money: what was invoiced, what was paid, what is overdue. When the two are connected only by exports, each side works partly blind.

Stacksync links Events, Customers, Subscriptions, Invoices in Chargebee to Contacts, Organizations, Leads, Opportunities in Insightly with bi-directional, real-time sync. New customers, updated billing details, invoice status, and payment activity move in whichever direction you configure, field by field, with conflicts resolved by rules you set. The result is one version of each customer, visible from both sides.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push invoices and credit notes into an accounting system or warehouse for revenue reporting.
  • 02 Write plan changes initiated in an internal admin tool back into Chargebee subscriptions.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Insightly contacts and organizations with a marketing automation platform
  • 04 Replicate opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse so RevOps can report on pipeline with SQL
