How it flows
How a Stripe event reaches MNTN. Sent from your app, resolved to a person, then forwarded.
01 Capture
Captured from Stripe
For apps that bill through Stripe, send payment and subscription events to Upstack with the Upstack Pixel and JavaScript SDK, resolved to a customer before they reach the tools you spend on.

02 Understand
Resolved to one person before it leaves
Every Stripe event is matched against a 750M+ device graph, so a phone browse and a desktop checkout resolve to one customer rather than two strangers.

Delivered to MNTN
Forward resolved conversions to MNTN so connected-TV spend is judged against orders rather than against household reach.

The catch
A retried payment produces several Stripe objects for one purchase.
Forwarding each as a conversion inflates reported performance by the retry rate, which is highest on exactly the campaigns bringing in the least reliable payment methods. Fire the Upstack event when Stripe reports the payment succeeded (invoice.paid or charge.succeeded), so only the settled payment becomes a conversion.

What changes
What changes when Stripe feeds MNTN. Two gains on the MNTN side, two on the Stripe side.
MNTN
Server-side delivery
Events reach MNTN through its server API rather than the browser, so ad blockers and ITP don’t cost you conversions.
MNTN
Identity-resolved events
Events sent to MNTN carry the resolved customer whenever Upstack can identify one, matched against a 750M+ device graph.
Stripe
Subscription purchases as events
Fire subscription_initial_purchase for the first order and subscription_recurring_purchase each time a renewal is paid, so first orders and renewals are reported separately.
Stripe
Payments and refunds
payment_succeeded, payment_failed and payment_refunded each map to a Stripe event (invoice.paid or charge.succeeded, invoice.payment_failed, charge.refunded), so money events reach Upstack when your app fires them.
Setup
