How do I get a phone notification when I receive a Stripe payment?

Stripe already knows the instant a payment clears — it fires a webhook event called payment_intent.succeeded. All that's missing is something to turn that event into a buzz on your phone, and that's Lert. You add one POST inside the handler you (or Stripe's quickstart) already have. Because your Lert link is the credential, there's no second key to manage.

Set it up in under 30 seconds

1. Download the app. Open it once — there's no account to create. Your private link is on screen.
2. Copy your link. One tap copies https://lert.dev/p/your-id.
3. Handle the Stripe event. In your webhook, match payment_intent.succeeded and POST the amount to your link.

The next real payment buzzes your phone with the dollar amount.

Example: a Stripe webhook in Node

app.post("/stripe-webhook", async (req, res) => {
  const event = req.body;

  if (event.type === "payment_intent.succeeded") {
    const pi = event.data.object;
    await fetch("https://lert.dev/p/your-id", {
      method: "POST",
      headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
      body: JSON.stringify({
        title: "Payment received 💰",
        body:  `$${(pi.amount / 100).toFixed(2)} ${pi.currency.toUpperCase()}`,
        tag:   "stripe"
      })
    }).catch(() => {});
  }

  res.sendStatus(200);
});

No auth token and no SDK for the notification — just one fetch. Keep verifying Stripe's signature as you normally would; Lert sits entirely on the outgoing side. Not on Node? The same pattern works from Python or PHP.
