Notion and Stripe, ready to switch on
Payments, new subscriptions, cancellations and refunds land as items in the Notion database you connect, with the plan, the amount and the customer as properties you can group and filter. You paste two keys in your account and we switch it on for you.
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 as a database item | Stripe to Notion | Within seconds | Amount, currency, customer and product written into properties that exist in your database |
| Subscription lifecycle | Stripe to Notion | Within seconds | Started, changed and cancelled all update the same item, so one row shows where it stands |
| Failed charges and refunds | Stripe to Notion | Within seconds | Marked in the status property with the reason, ready to be filtered into a view |
| Grouping you can use | In Notion | Always | Because these are properties and not text, revenue groups by plan or by month without a formula |
| One customer, one item | Stripe to Notion | Every event | Matched on the Stripe customer id, kept in a property of its own |
How to set up Notion and Stripe
A few minutes of your time, then it's ours.
- Choose Notion and StripePress Connect. This pair is already selected on the checkout page at $39 a month, and there's nothing else to pick.
- Pay and open your accountCard or invoice, about two minutes. The account opens with this integration waiting for its two keys.
- Paste the Notion integration secret and the Stripe restricted key
- Notion integration secret: open notion.so/my-integrations, press New integration, choose Internal and give it a name. Full Notion guide
- Stripe restricted key: in Stripe open Developers, then API keys, and press Create restricted key. Full Stripe guide
Each screen carries the full guide with the exact menu names, about seven minutes for both. - We check both keysEach key is checked against Notion's and Stripe's own API the moment you paste it. If one doesn't pass, the screen says what to fix, and a person joins the chat if that isn't enough.
- Make one test payment, then we switch it onA minute or two. Run a test payment in Stripe and watch the page appear in the database with the amount on it. A person checks the setup and switches it on, within a working day.
When Notion or Stripe changes its API, we fix it within a working day. You don't get a ticket to solve.
- Everything in the table above, with monitoring on.
- Fixes when either app changes its API.
- A person on live chat, weekdays 10:00 to 19:00 EET.
- Custom logic beyond the table is priced separately.
What it will cost once you can switch it on yourself. While we're in beta we connect it by hand and don't charge for it.
Ways to connect Notion and Stripe
Two ways people connect these two, and what each one asks of you.
Before you decide
Does anything go back into Stripe?
No. Money is read, never written. Closing a page changes nothing about the payment, which is how it should be.
Which events deserve a page?
Start with failures and disputes, since those have a deadline. Successful payments are worth a page only if somebody actually does something when one arrives.
Do the properties have to exist first?
Yes. Notion writes into properties, so the database needs its columns before the first item lands. Tell us the names you want and we map them while connecting.
Anything to know about Notion?
An integration only sees the pages and databases you have connected it to, so a database nobody shared with it stays invisible even to a valid key.
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 within a working day and build into the same account.
