- 1M+back-office tasks completed
The connection is a project before it does anything.
Before the first record moves: an app registration, credentials, token refresh, and somewhere to host and monitor the code. Global limit of 100 requests/second in live mode and 25/second in sandbox, with most individual endpoints capped at 25 requests/second.
Register an app, store Stripe credentials, refresh tokens and code around the rate limits.
Connect your Stripe account once. Caddi holds the connection.
The job doesn't stop at Stripe.
An intake, a filing or a client update also runs through email, documents and the other systems your team works in. The Stripe API only reaches Stripe.
Each extra system is another API, another set of credentials, another integration to own.
One automation runs across every tool the job touches, each through its API.
Someone has to own the code.
API versions change, fields get added and your process moves.
A developer patches and redeploys the integration each time.
The person who does the work updates it by showing or describing the change. Every automation is reviewed before it runs in production, and every run is logged.

When to build the Stripe integration in-house
When you have engineers and the integration is your product, or you need one narrow sync between two systems and someone to own it. When the goal is getting Stripe work off someone's desk, the build is the slow part, and Caddi does it for you.
What teams usually want the Stripe API for
Payment-to-books posting
Caddi summarizes daily Stripe activity and posts the journal entries to QuickBooks or Xero with the right customer coding.
Failed-payment chase
Caddi identifies failed Stripe charges, drafts the personalized outreach, and updates the CRM with the result.
Invoice reconciliation
Caddi matches Stripe payments against open invoices in your billing system and writes the reconciled record back.
Everything Caddi does with Stripe.
Stripe API questions
Does Stripe have an API?
Yes. Stripe has a REST API, authenticated with API key (secret/restricted keys); OAuth for Connect platforms. The official documentation is at https://docs.stripe.com/api.
How do I get access to the Stripe API?
Self-serve for any developer (free account with sandbox keys).
Does the Stripe API have rate limits?
Global limit of 100 requests/second in live mode and 25/second in sandbox, with most individual endpoints capped at 25 requests/second.
Can I connect Stripe to my other tools without writing code against its API?
Yes. With Caddi you show the Stripe task once, the way you'd train a new hire, and Caddi builds it as verified code that runs across Stripe and the other tools the job touches. Steps that need a person's judgment are handed to Copilot or Claude, and Caddi monitors those too.
Do I need a developer to automate Stripe with Caddi?
No. There is no integration code for you to write or maintain. Every automation Caddi builds for Stripe is reviewed before it runs in production, and every run is logged.
