Why teams connect Chargebee and TiDB

Work with Chargebee's financial data straight from TiDB: 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 Coupons, Events, Customers, Subscriptions from Chargebee into Sequences, Databases, Tables, Views in TiDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against TiDB, 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

  • Sync subscription status, plan, and MRR-relevant fields into the CRM so sales and success see billing state on the account.
  • Push invoices and credit notes into an accounting system or warehouse for revenue reporting.
  • Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • Serve mixed transactional and analytical workloads on synced data using TiFlash columnar replicas

Write back safely

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

React to financial events

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

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Chargebee live in TiDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between Chargebee and TiDB

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 TiDB objects
Subscriptions Recurring billing state (plan, term, status) synced to CRM and product databases. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system.
Invoices Issued billing documents synced to accounting and revenue reporting. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient.
Credit notes Adjustments and refund documents needed for accurate revenue reconciliation. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows.
Items and item prices The product catalog (plans, addons, charges) referenced by every subscription. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client.
Payment sources Stored payment methods; usually read-only metadata in syncs for compliance reasons. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC.
Transactions Payment attempts and outcomes synced for dunning and finance workflows. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward.
