Track successful payments in Postgres
Surface the payments that matter — a big invoice cleared, an annual renewed — without drowning the channel in every routine charge.

the event
You emit payment.succeeded with this shape. The TypeScript SDK keeps the call type-safe, and the event is stored whole — so every field below is available to the pipeline by name.

- invoice_idstring
- methodstringcard | sepa | invoice
emit it
From your code with the TypeScript SDK — or any language over the REST endpoint and signed webhook ingress.
import { ingest } from "@ingestlayer/sdk";
await ingest("payment.succeeded", {
customer_id: charge.customer,
amount: charge.amount,
currency: charge.currency,
invoice_id: charge.invoice,
method: charge.payment_method_type,
}, {
idempotencyKey: charge.id,
});route it to Postgres
Insert each event as a row into a table in your own Postgres.
- 01
add the connection
Paste a Postgres connection string. Connections originate from our EU region — allowlist those egress IPs on your database.
- 02
point at a table
Name the target table. Top-level event fields map to columns, and the full payload is also available as a jsonb column.
- 03
map columns
Match event fields to columns with $event.* references, or accept the default mapping into a typed events table.
INSERT INTO events.signups
(user_id, email, plan, source, payload)
VALUES
('u_018f', 'ada@acme.com', 'pro',
'marketing-site', '{ … }'::jsonb);notes
- The target table must already exist with compatible column types; ingestlayer never runs DDL on your database.
- Connections come from fixed EU egress IPs — add them to your firewall, or inserts will time out.
- Use a jsonb column for the full payload when your event shape changes often, so a new field never breaks the insert.
questions
- How do I keep the channel quiet?
- Filter on amount so routine charges pass silently to the warehouse, while only large payments reach a human.
- Can I split by currency?
- Branch on the currency field to route EU and US revenue to different channels or owners.
- Will retries double-count?
- No. The charge id as idempotencyKey collapses retries, so one cleared payment is one event.
