Why teams connect Drift and Pigment

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

Finance and sales describe the same customers in different systems. Drift knows the relationship: who the contacts are and what is in motion with the account. Pigment 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 Scenarios, Data imports, Users and permissions, Applications in Pigment to Users, Playbooks, Meetings, Contacts in Drift 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 Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • 02 Sync headcount and compensation data from an HRIS into workforce planning models.
  • 03 Archive historical Drift conversation and contact data into a warehouse ahead of a platform migration.
  • 04 Sync Drift-captured contacts into the CRM so chat-sourced leads enter standard sales workflows immediately.

Common sync patterns

Collections with context

Finance sees the account owner and relationship history from Drift when chasing a balance, and sales sees that the chase is happening.

Where Drift tracks deals: closed-won creates the finance record

A won opportunity creates or updates the customer in Pigment with the right billing details, so invoicing starts without re-keying.

Payment status on the account

Invoice and payment status from Pigment appears on the account in Drift, so reps see overdue balances before they promise the next order.
