Why teams connect Recurly and Rillet

Keep the customer, invoice, and payment records that Recurly and Rillet share consistent in real time, whether the two systems split your finance stack or one is replacing the other.

Two finance systems in one company usually means one of two setups. Either the systems divide the work, with one issuing invoices or serving a business unit while the other holds the books, or one is on its way out and both must stay accurate during the transition. In both cases, the customer, invoice, and payment records the two systems share start to drift the moment updates are keyed twice or moved by hand.

Stacksync syncs Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage, Accounts in Recurly with Customer, Vendor, Invoice, Credit Memo in Rillet bi-directionally and in real time. A record created or corrected in either system appears in the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV exports and nightly batch jobs.

That matters most at close. When both systems agree on who was billed, what was paid, and what is outstanding, reconciliation stops being a hunt for which copy of the truth is current.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 02 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 03 Mirror journal entries and contract revenue data into a warehouse for board and ARR reporting.
  • 04 Push billing events from a product or usage-metering system into Rillet for revenue recognition.

Common sync patterns

Entity or business-unit roll-up

Where each system serves a different entity or unit, sync the shared records so group-level reporting starts from consistent data.

Where Recurly issues invoices and Rillet holds the books

Invoices and payments recorded on the billing side land in the system of record automatically, so revenue is captured once and correctly.

Parallel run during a migration

When one system is replacing the other, keep both live and matching through the cutover, so no transaction falls between the last export and go-live.

What you can sync between Recurly and Rillet

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.

Recurly objects Rillet objects How this pairing syncs
Accounts Customer/billing entity records keyed by account_code; the anchor most subscriptions and invoices hang off. Synced two-way with CRM accounts or a customer database. Account Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions. Custom fields on either side are included in the mapping.
Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Invoice Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
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). Charge Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Billing Info is specific to Recurly and Charge to Rillet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Measured Units and Usage Metered-billing units; usage records are posted to a subscription before each bill run for consumption-based pricing. Reimbursement Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Measured Units and Usage is specific to Recurly and Reimbursement to Rillet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Subscriptions Recurring subscription records tied to an Account and a Plan, with state, term, and next-bill date. Core object, synced two-way to drive provisioning and reporting. Custom Field Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Subscriptions is specific to Recurly and Custom Field to Rillet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Customer Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Plans is specific to Recurly and Customer to Rillet — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Recurly and Rillet

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.

Recurly Rillet 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 Rillet through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rillet Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionRillet pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Near real-time updates via change tracking.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Rillet: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
