Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
Authenticate Stripe
Click "Add Connection" and select Stripe from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Stripe's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your orders, products, and customer data. You choose which store data the integration can read.
Authenticate Zendesk
Same process for Zendesk. Click "Add Connection," select Zendesk, and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your tickets, contacts, and support queues. You select which ticket views and queues the integration can access.
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new order placed in stripe or new ticket created in zendesk. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create ticket in zendesk. Map the data fields between Stripe and Zendesk so the right information lands in the right place.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Stripe and Zendesk. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about connecting Stripe and Zendesk.
How do I connect Stripe to Zendesk?
Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Stripe and Zendesk via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing commerce events to help desk & support actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between Stripe and Zendesk?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Stripe events to Zendesk actions, trigger Zendesk updates when Stripe data changes, create Zendesk records from Stripe events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the Stripe and Zendesk integration free?
Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Stripe-to-Zendesk workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my Stripe data secure when connected to Zendesk?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Stripe or Zendesk passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your commerce data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between Stripe and Zendesk?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Stripe or Zendesk. For example, create a workflow where Stripe events update Zendesk, and a separate one where Zendesk changes sync back to Stripe. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect Stripe and Zendesk?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Stripe and Zendesk, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
