Why teams connect Hibob and Stripe

Keep the employee, department, and cost records that Stripe and Hibob share consistent in real time, so the finance system and the people system stop drifting apart.

Stripe runs the money side of the company: who gets paid, what it costs, and which part of the business the cost belongs to. Hibob 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 PaymentIntents, Charges, Invoices, Subscriptions in Stripe with Lifecycle, Documents, Named lists, People (Employees) in Hibob 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 Keep the product and price catalog aligned between Stripe and an internal database that other systems read
  • 02 Trigger provisioning or deprovisioning in internal systems when subscription status changes
  • 03 Auto-provision or deprovision accounts in an IdP, ticketing tool, or app database when Bob Lifecycle events fire employee joined or terminated.
  • 04 Push Salaries and Variable Pay from Bob into a payroll provider or warehouse each pay cycle, using the Payroll-permitted service user.

Common sync patterns

Department and cost-center alignment

The org structure maintained in Hibob keeps the departments or cost centers in Stripe 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 Hibob side flow into Stripe for posting, so the books reflect what people actually cost without manual re-entry.

What you can sync between Hibob and Stripe

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.

Hibob objects Stripe objects How this pairing syncs
Named lists Dropdown option lists such as departments and sites used to resolve field values when mapping People records during sync. Refunds Reversals synced into finance systems for accurate revenue reporting. Named lists is specific to Hibob and Refunds to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People (Employees) Core employee records with out-of-the-box and custom fields; read via POST /people/search, created and updated through the /people endpoints. Disputes Chargebacks that support and finance teams track in their own tools. People (Employees) is specific to Hibob and Disputes to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Employment Historical table of job terms, contract, and working pattern under /people/{id}/employment; full CRUD, entries keyed by effectiveDate. Payouts Bank transfers reconciled against balance transactions during close. Employment is specific to Hibob and Payouts to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Work Reporting line, department, site, and title under /people/{id}/work; drives the org chart and is synced two-way to directories. Balance Transactions The ledger entries behind every money movement, the basis for reconciliation. Work is specific to Hibob and Balance Transactions to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Salaries Compensation history at /people/{id}/salaries; full CRUD but gated behind the Payroll permission on the service user. Events The change log; each state change is an Event retrievable via the API. Salaries is specific to Hibob and Events to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time off Absence requests and who's-out data via /timeoff/employees/{id}/requests and /timeoff/whosout; submit new requests and read balances. Customers The billing identity most teams match against CRM accounts and contacts. Time off is specific to Hibob and Customers to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Hibob and Stripe

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.

Hibob Stripe Sub-second propagation

DetectionHibob notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events.

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

Stripe Hibob Sub-second propagation

DetectionStripe notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks backed by the Events API.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Hibob: Rate limits are enforced per service user; violations return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, and X-RateLimit-Reset response headers. The docs list POST /people/search at 50 requests per minute, and bulk /people/search is preferred over per-record reads.
  • Stripe: Subject to documented per-mode request rate limits; idempotency keys make retries safe.

How the Hibob and Stripe connectors work

Hibob

Integration surface
REST API (the Bob API)
Authentication
Service User credentials over HTTP Basic auth (Base64-encoded serviceUserId:serviceUserToken); permissions granted per data category (People, Payroll, Documents) in Bob admin
Change detection
Webhooks fire for employee created/updated/deleted, table-entry created/updated, time off, and lifecycle events; the employee.updated payload flags which fields changed and Bob recommends an API call for the full record. There is no CDC stream, and deleting a table entry fires no webhook (Bob has no table-entry deletion event).
