A backstop cron. For every payments adapter and every business enabled on it, list recent settled payments and record any whose session is not already in the payments table. Because recording is idempotent, replaying costs nothing.
Also called: missed webhook · payment never showed up · reconcile payments · payment safety net
- 1A three-day lookback window per sweep.
- 2isStripeSessionRecorded skips anything the webhook or the return-trip already handled.
- 3One business's failure is caught and logged without stopping the others.
- 4The response reports orgs, scanned, recovered, alreadyOk and failed counts.
Both confirmation paths can miss: the customer closes the tab, and the notification from the processor lands during a deploy window or a brief outage and is gone. The invoice then sits unpaid with the money already collected, and nobody finds out until the customer complains about being chased. A regular sweep re-checks recent payment sessions against the processor and settles anything that slipped through, so the invoice updating itself once it is paid holds even on a bad night.
- Payments lost to a dropped webhook during a deploy or outage.
- Manual reconciliation between the processor's dashboard and the invoice list.
