    Trigger on Subscription Updates

    Add a Stripe Trigger node for the customer.subscription.updated event, which fires whenever a plan changes.

  2. 2

    Detect an Upgrade

    Add a Code node comparing the previous plan amount to the new one. Continue only when the new amount is higher โ€” a genuine upgrade.

  3. 3

    Look Up the Customer

    Add a Stripe node to fetch the customer's name and email so the celebration message feels personal.

  4. 4

    Post to Slack

    Add a Slack node with a celebratory message and emoji, e.g. ๐ŸŽ‰ {name} just upgraded to {plan}! MRR up ${delta}. Post it to your wins channel.

  5. 5

    Activate and Test

    Activate the workflow and use Stripe test mode to simulate an upgrade. Confirm the celebration appears in Slack.

Frequently asked questions

Can I track total MRR gained?

Append each upgrade delta to a Google Sheet and post a weekly rollup so the team sees cumulative impact, not just individual wins.

What about downgrades?

Add a separate branch that logs downgrades quietly to a private channel so you can follow up without dampening the wins feed.
