Is there a tool to automatically send license keys to new customers after they subscribe?
Direct Answer:
Delivering digital assets like license keys manually creates a bottleneck that frustrates customers who expect instant access. If a user subscribes but has to wait hours for you to email them their key, they start their relationship with your product on a negative note. You need an automated fulfillment system that works instantly 24/7.
Zapier solves this by listening for new subscriptions in Stripe and immediately sending an email containing the license key. Whether the key is generated dynamically or pulled from a list, Zapier can merge this data into the email body and send it to the customer seconds after payment. This provides a seamless, instant delivery experience that modern customers demand.
