How this automation works

Create a Stripe customer for every paid member on your Ghost site. This Applet runs when a member starts a paid subscription in Ghost and automatically creates a customer in Stripe using the member's name and email. It's useful for keeping billing and CRM records synchronized between Ghost and Stripe, ideal for publishers and membership sites that manage subscriptions.
