Recover failed payments with automatic retries

A payment fails in Stripe but you don't retry it immediately. Revenue gets stuck, customers wonder why payment didn't go through, and cash collection suffers. This automation watches for payment failures via webhook and retries the payment intent automatically—recovering failed charges without manual intervention.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Payment Intent

Updates a stripe paymentintent with new values for specified parameters; note that if `currency` is updated, `amount` might also be required, and certain updates (e.g., to `payment method`) can necessitate re-confirmation by the customer.

Why this helps

Failed payments sit dormant. You discover them hours or days later, customers feel forgotten, and failed payment recovery happens slowly. Each delayed retry costs revenue.

  • Failed payments retry within minutes of failure
  • Higher payment recovery rate from failed charges
  • Revenue doesn't leak through retry delays
  • Customers see updated payment status faster

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Stripe to Notis and set up a webhook endpoint
  • 2Configure your external system (CRM, billing system, etc.) to send a webhook to Notis when payment fails
  • 3Tell Notis: 'When a payment failure webhook arrives, update the Stripe payment intent to retry'
  • 4Test by triggering a failed payment from your system and verify Stripe shows a retry attempt

Questions about this workflow

What triggers a payment failure webhook?

Your external system detects the failed payment in Stripe or through its own payment processing and sends a notification to Notis.

Will the retry hit the same payment method?

By default, Stripe retries the same method. You can configure alternative methods or customer notification before retry.

How many times will Stripe retry?

Stripe retries failed charges up to 3 times by default. Notis can trigger retries beyond that based on your business rules.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Stripe. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Jira triggers

Stripe actions

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

TriggerInstant

Cancel subscription

Cancels a customer's active stripe subscription at the end of the current billing period, with options to invoice immediately for metered usage and prorate charges for unused time.

ActionInstant

New Project

Triggered when a new project is added in Jira

TriggerInstant

Confirm payment intent

Confirms a stripe paymentintent to finalize a payment; a `return url` is necessary if the payment method requires customer redirection.

ActionInstant

Updated Issue

Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.

TriggerInstant

Create Customer

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

ActionInstant

Create an invoice

Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.

ActionInstant

Create payment intent

Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.

ActionInstant

Create a price

Creates a new stripe price for a product, defining its charges (one-time or recurring) and billing scheme; requires either an existing `product` id or `product data`.

ActionInstant

Create product

Creates a new product in stripe, encoding the request as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` by flattening nested structures.

ActionInstant

Create Refund

Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.

ActionInstant
