Hi,
We're two young guys in Scotland who made this over the summer. In brief, you connect your Stripe account and get notifications via email (push, sms, Hipchat, Slack and others coming soon) of important events that occur.
We'd really appreciate any feedback or opinions on it: https://hooked.io https://hooked.io

Thanks!
- eps 12y agoI'm not sure who is this for. It just seems redundant to functionality that is natively present in backends that integrate with Stripe. I mean, if someone's checking out on my site and a Stripe charge fails, the checkout code knows that, it logs the event and dispatches the alert. There is absolutely no point in funneling this through some 3rd party paid service. That's not even venturing into the area of confidentiality issues of letting some random service full access to our Stripe activity. In fact, privacy and confidentiality considerations is the major killer of any 3rd party Stripe extension service.
- hookedio 12y agoHi, A lot of people are using Stripe just with the checkout snippet offered in the documentation. Others are using integrations which don't necessarily send alerts. If you use the code that Stripe provides then the charge fails and the event is logged, but no notification is sent. In terms of privacy and confidentiality, we're read only and have a privacy policy which you're welcome to read. Thanks for the feedback though :)
