Why teams connect Chargebee and PostgreSQL

Work with Chargebee's financial data straight from PostgreSQL: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Invoices, Credit notes, Items and item prices, Payment sources from Chargebee into Materialized Views, Schemas, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in PostgreSQL and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against PostgreSQL, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Chargebee with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • Mirror customers and subscriptions into Postgres so product code can check entitlement without calling the billing API.
  • Trigger dunning and churn-risk workflows by syncing failed transactions into support and CS tools.
  • Feed reporting and BI from a continuously synced Postgres replica instead of scheduled ETL scripts
  • Expose SaaS objects (CRM contacts, ERP invoices, support tickets) as Postgres tables that internal tools can query and join

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on PostgreSQL; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Chargebee.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in PostgreSQL propagate into Chargebee, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Chargebee appear in PostgreSQL as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between Chargebee and PostgreSQL

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 PostgreSQL objects
Invoices Issued billing documents synced to accounting and revenue reporting. Views Read-side projections used to expose joined or filtered data to a sync.
Credit notes Adjustments and refund documents needed for accurate revenue reconciliation. Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on a refresh schedule.
Items and item prices The product catalog (plans, addons, charges) referenced by every subscription. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes.
Payment sources Stored payment methods; usually read-only metadata in syncs for compliance reasons. Columns Field-level mapping targets; types are mapped to the connected system's field types.
Transactions Payment attempts and outcomes synced for dunning and finance workflows. Primary and Unique Keys Used as match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict resolution.
Coupons Discount definitions and redemptions used in deal-desk and reporting syncs. JSONB Columns Hold semi-structured payloads such as nested SaaS objects or metadata.
