ActiveCampaign and Stripe, ready to switch on
A successful payment adds the buyer to the ActiveCampaign list you choose and tags them with the plan, while a cancellation or a refund takes that tag off before the next campaign calls a leaver a customer. You paste two keys in your account and it runs, in about ten minutes.
No setup fee, cancel any month, and a person on live chat if a key doesn't work.

What moves, and when
The details you would normally get after a sales call. Here they are up front.
| What | Direction | When | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| Payment writes the plan into fields | Stripe to ActiveCampaign | Within seconds | Plan, amount and renewal date as contact fields, which is what your conditions can read later |
| The customer list | Stripe to ActiveCampaign | Within seconds | The buyer joins the list you keep for customers, where your onboarding automation already starts |
| Churn on the day it happens | Stripe to ActiveCampaign | Within seconds | A cancellation takes the customer tag off before the next send picks that list up |
| Card trouble | Stripe to ActiveCampaign | Within seconds | Tagged with the reason, so the automation you already wrote runs and we send nothing ourselves |
| ActiveCampaign deals | Stripe to ActiveCampaign | If you use them | A payment can move a deal to the stage you choose, for teams who sell inside the same tool |

Before you decide
Does it send any email itself?
No. It tags and it fills fields. What goes out, when and to whom stays inside ActiveCampaign, where your consent and your unsubscribes live.
Which payments count?
Successful charges and paid invoices. A card that fails is tagged as a failure, not as a sale, so the paying list stays honest.
Does it send any email by itself?
No. It tags contacts and fills fields. What goes out stays inside ActiveCampaign, with your own consent rules and your own unsubscribes.
Anything to know about ActiveCampaign?
The API key belongs to the user who made it, so the integration acts with that user's permissions and shows up in the account as that user.
Anything to know about Stripe?
A restricted key with read access can only read. It can't move money, and we never ask for your secret key.
What if mine is a bit different?
Tell us what should go where in plain words. Small changes to the rules above are usually free; bigger ones we price the same day and build into the same account.
