Why teams connect Chargebee and Shipwire

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

Shipwire 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 Stock, Receivings, Returns, Purchase Orders in Shipwire field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — an order's totals from Shipwire, 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 Trigger dunning and churn-risk workflows by syncing failed transactions into support and CS tools.
  • 02 Sync subscription status, plan, and MRR-relevant fields into the CRM so sales and success see billing state on the account.
  • 03 Pull Returns and tracking.delivered events into a support or analytics database for reverse-logistics and delivery-SLA reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync Orders between a storefront or ERP database and Shipwire so new orders create fulfillment requests and Stacksync writes Trackings and status (processed, submitted, delivered) back.

Common sync patterns

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 Shipwire, 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.

Catalog and pricing stay aligned

Products, SKUs, and prices maintained on one side propagate to the other, so what the store sells and what the ledger books stay in step.

What you can sync between Chargebee and Shipwire

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.

Chargebee objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Items and item prices The product catalog (plans, addons, charges) referenced by every subscription. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Items and item prices is specific to Chargebee and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Payment sources Stored payment methods; usually read-only metadata in syncs for compliance reasons. Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Payment sources is specific to Chargebee and Returns to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Transactions Payment attempts and outcomes synced for dunning and finance workflows. Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Transactions is specific to Chargebee and Purchase Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Coupons Discount definitions and redemptions used in deal-desk and reporting syncs. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Coupons is specific to Chargebee and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events The change log resource that records every state change for incremental sync. Rates Shipping cost quotes for a cart or order; read-only, called at checkout time to estimate carrier costs rather than synced as stored records. Events is specific to Chargebee and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Billing accounts matched to CRM accounts or users by email or external ID. Orders B2C fulfillment orders (create, update, cancel, get) with item, hold, routing, and tracking subresources; typically written from a storefront or ERP and synced back with status and trackings. Customers is specific to Chargebee and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Chargebee and Shipwire

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.

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

Shipwire Chargebee Sub-second propagation

DetectionShipwire notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 signed, near real-time) on order, tracking, stock, receiving, return, and product topics.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Chargebee: Subject to plan-based API rate limits enforced per site.
  • Shipwire: No published per-second request cap; list responses page at 20 items (recommended max ~200) and webhook payloads carry at most 20 items per resource, so large records must be paged via the response next links.
