Cancel payment intents by removing a Slack reaction
Changed your mind? Remove your reaction from Slack and the payment intent cancels automatically in Stripe.
Trigger
Message Reaction Removed
Triggered when a reaction is removed from a message in Slack. Supports optional filtering by channel and emoji name.
Action
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Why this helps
Canceling payment intents requires logging into Stripe and manually clearing them, especially if a sale falls through.
- Cancel payments instantly without leaving Slack
- Quickly handle deal fallthrough scenarios
- Reduce wasted payment attempts
- Streamline payment lifecycle management
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Stripe to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: name it 'Reaction Removed Payment Cancel', use this prompt: 'When I remove a specific emoji reaction from a Slack message, cancel the corresponding payment intent in Stripe', choose 'Message Reaction Removed'.
- 3Notis will link removed reactions to payment intents created earlier.
- 4Set your Slack channel for confirmations.
- 5Test by creating a payment intent (via earlier automation or manually), reacting, then removing the reaction to cancel.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which payment intent to cancel?
Notis tracks which payment intents you created in your Slack channel and ties them to your emoji reactions. When you remove the reaction, it cancels that payment intent.
What if I added the reaction but didn't intend to create a payment intent?
Make sure your automation setup clearly defines when reactions trigger payment intents. You can always manually cancel in Stripe if needed.
Can multiple people react to the same message?
Yes, each person's reaction is tracked separately, so removing your reaction only affects your payment intent.
