Fairview uses a restricted read-only key — it can only read the data types you grant access to. It never initiates charges, refunds, or any write operations. Your Stripe account is untouched.

What Fairview reads from Stripe

  • Monthly recurring revenue (MRR)
  • One-time charges
  • Refunds
  • Subscription events (upgrades, downgrades, cancellations)
  • Customer churn signals
  • Payment metadata

Restricted read-only key — never writes to Stripe

Questions operators ask

FAQ

Stripe-specific. No fluff.

Does Fairview need my full Stripe API key?

No. Fairview uses a restricted read-only API key. Stripe lets you create keys with only the permissions required — Fairview only needs read access to charges, subscriptions, customers, and refunds. Your full secret key is never required.

Does Fairview read Stripe invoices sent outside Stripe?

No. Fairview only captures revenue processed through Stripe. Invoices sent manually or collected through other payment processors are not included in the revenue view.

How does Fairview calculate MRR from Stripe data?

Fairview reads active subscription amounts from Stripe and normalises them to a monthly value. Annual plans are divided by 12. One-time charges are excluded from MRR and shown separately as non-recurring revenue.

What counts as a churn signal in Fairview?

Fairview flags subscription cancellations, downgrades, and failed payment retries in Stripe as churn signals. These are surfaced in the Weekly Operating Report with subscriber counts and estimated MRR impact.

Does Fairview write anything back to Stripe?

No. Fairview is read-only. It reads your revenue data from Stripe to power the operating dashboard, margin calculation, and churn signal detection. Nothing is ever written back to your Stripe account.

How often does Fairview sync with Stripe?

Daily by default. Fairview pulls the latest charge, subscription, and refund data overnight so your revenue view is current every Monday morning. The Scale plan offers more frequent syncs.
