Create Stripe customers from Bonsai onboarding

Move a new client from signed onboarding to a ready-to-bill Stripe customer with less manual re-entry.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Customer

Creates a new customer in stripe, required for creating charges or subscriptions; an email is highly recommended for customer communications.

Why this helps

Client details can be captured in Bonsai but still need to be copied into Stripe before billing can begin.

  • Reduce duplicate entry between onboarding and billing.
  • Keep new client records moving toward invoicing.
  • Use only client details available in the Bonsai handoff.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bonsai and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Stripe customer from the Bonsai onboarding details and flag missing required information.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real onboarding example and review the created customer.

Questions about this workflow

Does Bonsai provide a trigger event for this workflow?

No. Start it with a Notis webhook, which runs when an HTTP request reaches the automation.

Will Notis invent details missing from Bonsai?

No. It can use details available in the handoff and report when information needed for the Stripe customer is missing.
