Hubspot have announced a new native 'Payments' service that's currently in Beta in the US. I've read through the docs but can't find any information as to whether a 'Payments API' will be made available alongside the new service. Can anyone shed any light? Thanks
Thanks for the questions @JamesMack and thanks for chiming in here @JFrost ! My name is Jack and I'm on the GTM Team for HubSpot Payments.
We're going to be seeing a number of commerce-related objects released this year (payment object is currently rolling out to everybody and the subscription object is already released with one other object coming in the next few months). An object in HubSpot of course means many things, one of which is APIs and we're hoping to be releasing those towards the end of this year or beginning of next. I'd love to reiterate @dennisedson 's question earlier around your use case... we'd love to hear about what you'd want to do with these APIs!
@JFrost regarding your question, were you aware of these three new workflow actions we recently released (one of them allows you to create an invoice in QBO automatically and mark it as paid? They of course work very very nicely with HubSpot Payments, though you can use them independent of HubSpot Payments as well
Are we going to be able to send in payments from our other platforms that are NOT processed via HubSpot?
We need to track the payments we currently have out of Stripe / PayPal first, then perhaps in the future we can look at what it looks like letting HS process them.
@PLJordan I'm hesitant to speak too too confidently here because a lot of things still need to come together so don't necessarily hold me to this, but yes, I would indeed expect you to be able to feed this type of data into HubSpot down the road. For now though, you could always use deals to hold a lot that information if you aren't already!
