How Stripe and GitHub records line up
Stripe and GitHub share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in Stripe charges can be read against what GitHub recorded in the same hours.
What combined reporting uses from each
Combined reporting needs a shared identifier or a shared time grain.
From Stripe that means customer emails and any order ID your checkout writes into charge metadata. From GitHub it means deploy timestamps.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Stripe on its own
Stripe knows the payment, the amount and the customer's email. It has no record of the ad, search or email that brought the customer in.
Timing. Stripe records each charge, refund and failed payment as it happens. Payouts land on a schedule days later, so charge date and payout date differ.
Access. A restricted, read-only Stripe API key, or Stripe Connect.
GitHub on its own
GitHub knows what code changed and when. It cannot tell you whether that change cost you leads or sales.
Timing. GitHub timestamps every commit, merge and deployment to the second.
Access. A GitHub App or token with read access to the repositories you choose.
