Unlock Seamless eCommerce: Integrate Stripe with Kentico for Automated Payments & Order Flow

Streamline your Kentico eCommerce operations and financial reconciliation with real-time, AI-powered integration to Stripe's leading payment gateway. Eliminate manual tasks, reduce errors, and accelerate your order-to-cash cycle.

The Challenge

The Challenge: Disconnected Payments, Disjointed eCommerce

Running a thriving eCommerce business on Kentico while managing payments through Stripe can be a complex, fragmented process without proper integration. Manual data entry, delayed updates, and reconciliation errors can stifle growth and impact customer satisfaction.

  • Manual order status updates after Stripe payments.
  • Discrepancies between Kentico orders and Stripe transaction records.
  • Time-consuming financial reconciliation of payments and refunds.
  • Lack of a unified customer view across sales and payment history.
  • Inefficient handling of failed payments and subscription changes.
  • Risk of human error and compliance issues (e.g., PCI DSS scope).

Technical Integration Details: Connecting Stripe and Kentico

Our iPaaS provides the robust framework for connecting Stripe and Kentico, leveraging their respective APIs and webhooks for a highly efficient, event-driven integration. This section outlines the core technical aspects.

Data Flow Steps

1. Connectors Configuration: Configure pre-built connectors for Stripe and Kentico within the iPaaS, providing API keys/OAuth credentials securely.

2. Webhook Setup: Establish webhooks in both Stripe (e.g., `charge.succeeded`, `customer.created`) and Kentico (e.g., `ecommerce.order.created`, `customer.updated`) to trigger real-time workflows.

3. Workflow Design: Use the low-code visual designer to create integration flows for specific use cases (e.g., Order-to-Cash, Customer Sync).

4. Data Mapping & Transformation: Visually map fields between Stripe and Kentico entities. Apply transformation rules (e.g., currency conversion, data concatenation) using AI-assisted mapping.

5. Error Handling & Retries: Configure automated retry logic with exponential backoff for transient failures and set up alerts for critical errors.

6. Testing & Deployment: Thoroughly test workflows in a sandbox environment (Stripe test mode, Kentico staging) and deploy to production using controlled pipelines.

Data Touchpoints

Kentico `Order` details to Stripe `PaymentIntent` and `Charge`.
Stripe `Charge` and `Refund` details to Kentico `Payment` and ERP financial records.
Kentico `Customer` details to Stripe `Customer` and CRM `Contact`.
Stripe `Customer` (e.g., payment methods) to Kentico `Customer`.
Kentico `Product` details to Stripe `Product` (for billing/description).

"A central iPaaS orchestrates the flow. Kentico triggers events (e.g., New Order) via webhooks to the iPaaS. The iPaaS then calls Stripe APIs (e.g., Create PaymentIntent). Stripe events (e.g., Payment Succeeded) flow back to the iPaaS via webhooks, which then updates Kentico APIs (e.g., Update Order Status) and potentially ERP/CRM APIs for financial and customer record updates."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping

Our iPaaS provides sophisticated mapping capabilities to connect the core entities of Stripe and Kentico, ensuring data integrity and consistency across your systems. AI-assisted mapping accelerates this process and reduces errors.

Customer

Represents a buyer or user. Critical for personalized experiences and recurring billing.

Stripe Fields

id email name description metadata (for Kentico ID)

Kentico Fields

CustomerID CustomerGUID FirstName LastName Email Phone BillingAddressID ShippingAddressID RegistrationDate

Mapping Notes

Map `Kentico.CustomerID` to `Stripe.metadata.kenticocustomerid` and `Stripe.id` to `Kentico.metadata.stripecustomerid`. Ensure email is the primary key for deduplication. Sync billing address for Stripe invoices.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST /v1/payment_intents Create and manage payment flows (SCA compliant).
POST /v1/charges Process one-time payments.
POST, GET, PUT /v1/customers Manage customer profiles and payment methods.
POST /v1/refunds Initiate refunds for charges.
GET /v1/invoices Retrieve invoices for reconciliation.
POST /v1/webhooks Configure event notifications for real-time updates.

Transformation Logic

  • Currency Conversion: Automatically convert Kentico `TotalPrice` to Stripe's smallest currency unit (e.g., cents for USD).
  • Status Mapping: Map specific `Stripe.PaymentIntent.status` values to corresponding `Kentico.OrderStatus` (e.g., `succeeded` -> 'Paid', `requires_action` -> 'Pending Payment').
  • Metadata Enrichment: Embed `Kentico.OrderID`, `Kentico.CustomerID`, and `Kentico.SKU` into Stripe's `metadata` for enhanced traceability and reporting.
  • Address Standardization: Harmonize billing and shipping address formats between Kentico and Stripe for consistency and accurate invoicing.
  • Data Aggregation: Combine `OrderItem` details from Kentico into a concise `Stripe.description` or line items for payment intent.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Stripe Card Declined: iPaaS updates Kentico order status to 'Payment Failed', sends customer an email with retry option, and logs details.
  • Kentico API Timeout: iPaaS retries the API call with exponential backoff, stores message in a temporary queue, and alerts if persistent.
  • Data Mapping Mismatch: AI flags the inconsistency, suggests a mapping correction, and routes the message to a dead-letter queue for review.
  • Duplicate Webhook Event: iPaaS ensures idempotency by checking for existing records based on unique identifiers before processing, preventing duplicate charges or order entries.
