How to receive push notifications from Stripe with PingBell

Most founders running on Stripe find out about a new subscription by refreshing the dashboard or waiting for a daily summary email. With PingBell wired into Stripe’s native webhook endpoints, you get a push on your phone — with the sound of your choice — the instant a charge lands.

The one-click alternative: install PingBell from the Stripe App Marketplace and revenue, orders, and customers counters appear in your Stripe Dashboard automatically, seeded with your all-time totals. The manual webhook flow below is for founders who want to pick exactly which events ring.

Requirements: a PingBell account and a Stripe account.

Step 1: Create a PingBell account

Sign up at my.pingbell.io — passwordless email-link login, 7-day free trial on every plan.

Step 2: Create a source

Open the Sources page, type a name in the Custom webhook panel (“Stripe charges”, “New MRR”, “Cha-ching”), and click Create webhook.

Step 3: Configure the celebration

Click the pencil on the source, set a celebration message, and pick a sound. PingBell’s library has 70+ built-in options — bells, cheers, cash registers, chimes — so different sources can ring different sounds.

Step 4: Invite your team (optional)

Open Workspace & Teams and add teammates by email. Everyone hears the bell on their own phone — no per-viewer charges.

Step 5: Open Stripe Developers

In the Stripe dashboard, go to Developers in the top navigation.

Step 6: Open Webhooks

In the Developers tab, click Webhooks.

Step 7: Add an endpoint

Click Add endpoint.

Step 8: Open the endpoint form

Stripe will prompt you for a destination URL.

Step 9: Copy your webhook URL

Back on PingBell’s Sources page, click the 🔗 copy icon on your source.

Step 10: Paste the URL into Stripe

Paste the webhook URL into the endpoint URL field.

Step 11: Pick events

Subscribe to the events that matter. Common picks:

• charge.succeeded — one-time revenue
• customer.subscription.created — new MRR
• invoice.paid — subscription renewals
• checkout.session.completed — Stripe Checkout conversions

Step 12: Save

Save the endpoint. Stripe will start sending events to PingBell.

Step 13: You’re done

Every time the chosen event fires on Stripe, the bell rings on every screen your team has open. Drop the counter on a board, and PingBell dedupes overlapping event types per payment so nothing counts twice.
