A Stripe successful payment alert is a Slack message posted the moment a payment goes through. ChargeBell listens for Stripe's payment_intent.succeeded event and turns it into a plain-English message with the amount, the customer, and what you keep after fees, in the channel your team already watches.
payment_intent.succeeded is the Stripe event that fires when a PaymentIntent is fully paid: the customer's card (or other method) was charged successfully and the money is on its way to your balance. It's the canonical "you got paid" signal for one-off charges and invoice payments alike.
Raw webhook data isn't useful in Slack. A good alert answers "how much did we actually keep, and who paid?" at a glance. ChargeBell computes the net after Stripe fees and adds the customer, so you don't have to.
