How this automation works

Receive a Slack message when a new paid member signs up on your Ghost site. The Applet triggers from Ghost's New paid member event and posts member details to the Slack channel you select. It's ideal for teams who want immediate visibility into subscriptions from Ghost so you can welcome members, track revenue, or start onboarding in Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
