Keep supporter details connected to Ko-fi payment intake
Make it easier to connect a familiar name or note with the right payment follow-up.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Receive Ko-fi payment webhook
Receives and validates Ko-fi payment webhook events. Use this to process real-time notifications for donations, subscriptions, commissions, and shop orders from Ko-fi. The webhook includes payment details, supporter information, and transaction metadata. Returns validated payment data to confirm receipt (Ko-fi expects 200 OK to prevent retries).
Why this helps
Remembering where a supporter detail appeared can add friction to routine follow-up.
- Give supporter details a clear relationship to payment intake.
- Reduce searching through DMs after a payment arrives.
- Keep a useful follow-up cue close at hand.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Ko-fi to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or describe it to Notis conversationally.
- 3In one instruction, explain how a supporter-detail DM should cue Ko-fi payment webhook receipt and validation.
- 4Choose the direct message received trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real supporter detail and its payment event.
