Stripe + beehiiv integration

Native subscriber or buyer sync between Plandalf and beehiiv is not available. What works today is a hosted Plandalf checkout link in a beehiiv post or page, paid through your Stripe account, and a countdown image in an HTML Snippet block. Adding buyers as subscribers needs a Send Webhook step you set up yourself.

1. Copy the hosted link

   In Plandalf open the offer and copy its Test mode link while you rehearse. Swap in the public link before you send. Do not paste the SDK script or an iframe into an email.

2. Add a Button block

   In the beehiiv post type /, choose Button, set a label such as Open checkout and paste the link. Preview the email and click through to confirm the product and total.

3. Add the countdown image if you have a promo

   In Plandalf open the promo, choose Emails, then beehiiv, and copy the Email timer code. In the post type /, choose HTML snippet and paste it unchanged, keeping the merge tag.

4. Create the buyer sync sequence

   Under Automation, My Sequences, start a sequence on Checkout Completed for the offer. Add Send Webhook set to POST on beehiiv's create-subscription URL for your publication.

5. Fill the headers and body

   Add an Authorization header with your beehiiv bearer key. In the JSON body set email to {{trigger.customer_email}}, and decide on send_welcome_email and reactivate_existing deliberately.

6. Rehearse with your own email

   A step test writes to beehiiv for real, so use your own address. Turn on Run on test purchases, buy with a Stripe test card, read the run in the Events view and then switch the setting off.

• Hosted checkout links and promo email images work today. Plandalf does not currently create a beehiiv subscriber after a purchase, so buyer sync is a consent-aware automation you build and test.
• beehiiv's create-subscription endpoint requires only an email, and custom fields must already exist in the publication or they are dropped. The beehiiv reference does not state plan requirements, so check your plan's API access.
• The beehiiv replay stopped at a checkout that showed Payment Setup Required, because its local organisation had no test payment provider. A visible checkout is not proof of a paid invoice or subscriber.
• beehiiv's HTML Snippet block needs an eligible paid plan or trial, and the countdown is an image, not an interactive checkout. The same subscriber ID must be used when enrolling the person and when the image loads.
• Plandalf has no subscription-cancelled trigger, so a lapsed buyer is not removed from beehiiv on its own.

Does Stripe integrate with beehiiv?

beehiiv connects Stripe for its own paid subscriptions and digital products, which is its feature and not Plandalf's. Plandalf and beehiiv do not sync natively. Plandalf links a Stripe-backed checkout from your posts.

How do I connect Stripe to beehiiv for Plandalf checkouts?

You do not connect them to each other. Connect Stripe to Plandalf, publish an offer, and paste its hosted checkout link into a beehiiv Button block.

Can I add Stripe buyers to beehiiv as subscribers?

Yes, with a Send Webhook step that calls beehiiv's API after Checkout Completed. Plandalf has no beehiiv step, so check consent first and test with your own email.

Can I put a Plandalf countdown in a beehiiv email?

Yes. Copy the Email timer code for beehiiv from the promo and paste it into an HTML Snippet block. It needs a beehiiv plan or trial that includes that block.
