Webhooks

React to commerce events reliably with re-delivery handling, signatures, and clear event contracts.

  • Event-driven

    Near-real-time sync without polling.

    Designed for retries and re-deliveries.

  • Secure

    Signature verification patterns.

Event-driven integrations

Build near-real-time sync without constant polling. Webhooks are designed for reliability: assume re-deliveries, verify signatures, and make handlers idempotent.

Signature verification

Verify events and protect against spoofed requests.

Re-delivery handling

Assume at-least-once delivery and implement idempotent processing.

Low-latency sync

React to updates quickly for operations and customer messaging.

Clear contracts

Know what changed with consistent payloads and event types.

Best practices

  • Verify signatures and rotate secrets safely
  • Make handlers idempotent
  • Acknowledge fast; process async if needed

FAQ

Are webhooks delivered exactly once?

No—assume at-least-once delivery. Deduplicate by event ID and make handlers idempotent.

What should my endpoint return?

Return a fast 2xx response after minimal validation. Do heavier processing asynchronously.

How do I secure webhook endpoints?

Verify signatures, use HTTPS, and restrict inbound traffic where possible.

How do I handle out-of-order events?

Use timestamps or versions when present; treat newer updates as authoritative and reconcile via API if needed.
