Trigger

Charge Failed Trigger

Triggered when a direct charge fails in Stripe's legacy Charges API

Why this helps

Legacy charge failures can be overlooked when payment follow-up depends on checking multiple dashboards.

  • Catch failed direct charges as they happen.
  • Use a consistent letter document that you supply.
  • Reduce the manual handoff from payment review to mail preparation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Stripe and Docupost once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe the failed-charge letter outcome in one instruction, including your document and trusted address source.
  • 4Pick the Stripe Charge Failed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real failed charge and confirm recipient and document details before sending.
