Stripe Webhook Events Not Being Processed

Stripe webhook endpoint is registered and receiving events (confirmed in Stripe dashboard) but handlers aren't executing. Payments are charged successfully in Stripe but the application doesn't record orders, send confirmations, or update inventory.

The webhook integration appears complete but events are being ignored silently.

Error Messages You Might See

Webhook endpoint responded with 403 Forbidden No payment confirmation sent after charge succeeded Stripe dashboard shows failed webhook deliveries
Webhook endpoint responded with 403 ForbiddenNo payment confirmation sent after charge succeededStripe dashboard shows failed webhook deliveries

Common Causes

  1. Webhook endpoint URL unreachable from Stripe servers (firewall, domain not public)
  2. Webhook signing secret (whsec_*) incorrect or not used in verification
  3. Event handler logic throws error after signature verification succeeds
  4. Endpoint registered for wrong events (charge.succeeded not in subscribed events)
  5. Endpoint disabled in Stripe dashboard or timeout rate too high

How to Fix It

Verify webhook endpoint is publicly accessible: curl -i https://yourdomain.com/stripe/webhook. Check Stripe dashboard: Settings → Webhooks → endpoint → click to see event deliveries and responses. Verify webhook secret used correctly in signature verification. Subscribe to all necessary events (charge.succeeded, payment_intent.succeeded). Add logging to confirm event type received. Test with Stripe CLI: stripe listen --forward-to localhost:8080/stripe/webhook

Alvin Voo Alvin Voo I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing. My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream. What I bring to your project: Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins. Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams. Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to verify Stripe webhook signatures?

Import stripe library. Call stripe.webhooks.constructEvent(body, sig_header, endpoint_secret). Returns verified event or throws if signature invalid.

Why is endpoint marked as disabled?

Too many failures (4xx/5xx responses, timeouts). Fix the handler and re-enable in Stripe dashboard. Return 200 on success.

How to test Stripe webhooks locally?

Use Stripe CLI: stripe listen. It provides webhook URL (forwarding to localhost). CLI shows all events received in real-time.
