What you can do

What Stripe data does inside Dear CFO

Subscription revenue you can trust

Subscriptions, prices and invoices sit next to your P&L, so recurring revenue, churn and expansion are figures, not a spreadsheet someone rebuilds monthly.

Cash that reconciles

Payouts and balance transactions show what actually reached the bank, net of fees, refunds and disputes.

Customers, joined to the rest

Stripe customers become data you can join to your CRM and your ledger, and ask the AI analyst about in plain English.

What syncs

What Dear CFO reads from Stripe

Stripe datasets
  • Products
  • Prices
  • Customers
  • Subscriptions
  • Subscription items
  • Balance transactions
  • Charges
  • Refunds
  • Payouts
  • Disputes
  • Invoices
  • Invoice line items

Every sync re-reads the last 120 days, so late refunds and disputes land on the right dates.

In full, Dear CFO copies charges, balances, payouts, invoices, subscriptions, products and disputes, including customer names, email addresses and the last four digits of payment cards. How it is stored and protected is in our privacy policy.

Questions

Stripe and Dear CFO

Why does Stripe’s screen mention creating payments?

Stripe grants platforms read-and-write access until read-only is approved for them. Dear CFO only reads, never creates charges, refunds or payouts, and you can disconnect from Dear CFO or from Stripe at any time.

Can I connect a Stripe test account?

Yes. Test-mode data is labelled as test data so it is never mistaken for real revenue.

How far back does the data go?

The first sync loads your history, and every later sync re-reads the last 120 days to pick up late changes.
