Use cases

Stripe

Check your Stripe payments

Four questions Gescon answers by querying Stripe transactions.

Finance

«Has this invoice already been charged?»

Gescon queries Stripe and returns the charge status and date.

Management

«How much did we collect in subscriptions last month?»

Returns the total charged by Stripe for the period, broken down by plan.

Support

«Why did this client's charge fail?»

Returns the failure reason recorded by Stripe and the date of the attempt.

Finance

«Which clients have a pending refund?»

A list of refunds in progress with their amount.

What it brings

What it reads and what it doesn't touch

The connector only queries. No charge or refund is executed from Gescon.

  • Authorised resources
    Charges, customers, or subscriptions: you decide which.
  • Charge status
    Charged, pending, or failed, with the date of the attempt.
  • Subscription history
    Plan, amount, and period for each one.
  • Citations to the source transaction
    Every answer links to the exact charge in Stripe.
  • Nothing gets executed
    The connector is read-only. It doesn't charge, refund, or cancel subscriptions.
