Best practices I wish we knew when integrating Stripe webhooks

Stigg is focused on integrating with Stripe's incoming webhooks to manage subscriptions and ensure seamless financial transactions for its customers. Their no-code integration offers comprehensive management of Stripe-related tasks, such as syncing plans, add-ons, and customer subscriptions, while listening to webhooks for updates. A key aspect of their service is the Create Subscription flow, which relies on Stripe webhooks to confirm successful payments, a process that must be highly resilient and scalable to prevent financial losses for customers. The challenges of processing Stripe webhooks include handling events that may arrive out of order or be duplicated, verifying webhook signatures promptly, and ensuring reliable notification of misconfigured endpoints. To address these issues, Stigg has implemented a robust system using AWS infrastructure, including API Gateway, Lambda functions, and SQS with DLQ, to process and manage webhooks efficiently, mitigate potential failures, and ensure prompt action on any problems, as Stripe's notification system may be delayed.
