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
Common Causes
- Webhook endpoint URL unreachable from Stripe servers (firewall, domain not public)
- Webhook signing secret (whsec_*) incorrect or not used in verification
- Event handler logic throws error after signature verification succeeds
- Endpoint registered for wrong events (charge.succeeded not in subscribed events)
- 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

I’m a product-focused engineer and tech leader who builds scalable systems and turns ideas into production-ready platforms.
Over the past years, I’ve worked across startups and fast-moving teams, leading backend architecture, improving system reliability, and shipping products used by thousands of users. My strength is not just writing code — but connecting product vision, technical execution, and business impact.
Sage Fulcher
Hey I'm Sage! Im a Boston area software engineer who grew up in South Florida. Ive worked at a ton of cool places like a telehealth kidney care startup that took part in a billion dollar merger (Cricket health/Interwell health), a boutique design agency where I got to work on a ton of exciting startups including a photography education app, a collegiate Esports league and more (Philosophie), a data analytics as a service startup in Cambridge (MA) as well as at Phillips and MIT Lincoln Lab where I designed and developed novel network security visualizations and analytics. I've been writing code and furiously devoted to using computers to make people’s lives easier for about 17 years. My degree is in making computers make pretty lights and sounds. Outside of work I love hip hop, the Celtics, professional wrestling, magic the gathering, photography, drumming, and guitars (both making and playing them)
Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.

Get HelpFrequently 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.
