How to Reconcile Card Spend with DogPay Webhooks
For businesses using virtual cards, reconciling transactions against internal records can be time-consuming. DogPay webhooks provide real-time event notifications that can automate this process. When a card transaction occurs, DogPay sends a webhook payload containing transaction details such as amount, merchant, status, and timestamp. Your system can ingest these events and match them against purchase orders or budget codes. This approach reduces manual data entry and minimizes discrepancies. To set up webhooks, configure your endpoint URL in the DogPay dashboard and select the events you want to receive, for example, 'transaction.created' and 'transaction.settled'. Ensure your endpoint acknowledges receipt with a 200 status to avoid retries. Webhook signatures help verify authenticity. DogPay supports idempotency keys to prevent duplicate processing. By integrating webhooks, businesses can achieve near-real-time reconciliation for card spend. DogPay can help with dedicated virtual cards, global accounts, stablecoin settlement, wallet/payment infrastructure, spend visibility, and payment operations. While webhooks streamline reconciliation, they depend on your system's ability to process events reliably.
