Support & Communication

This section explains how to get help, find answers, and communicate with the ChaChing team.


Documentation

The ChaChing documentation is the primary source of guidance for both business users and developers.

Use the documentation to:

  • Learn how to use the ChaChing dashboard
  • Understand customer, product, subscription, and invoice workflows
  • Explore API capabilities and integration details
  • Review onboarding, migration, and billing behavior

Documentation is continuously updated as new features are released.


Contact Support (Email)

If you need direct assistance or encounter an issue that cannot be resolved through documentation, you can contact the ChaChing support team via email.

Support email: support@chaching.io

Use email support for:

  • Account or access issues
  • Migration or onboarding questions
  • Payment, invoice, or subscription problems
  • Unexpected system behavior or errors

When contacting support, include:

  • Your account or tenant name
  • Relevant customer, subscription, invoice, or payment IDs
  • Screenshots or error messages (if applicable)
  • A short description of what you were trying to do and what happened instead

This helps the support team investigate and respond faster.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Getting Started & Onboarding

What happens to my existing Stripe subscriptions after migration?

After migration is confirmed, ChaChing takes over billing while preserving all historical Stripe data. Subscriptions continue billing on their normal renewal dates.

Can I onboard without connecting a Stripe account?

Yes. If you don’t have existing Stripe subscriptions, you can skip the migration step and start using ChaChing for new customers and subscriptions.

How long does the migration process take?

Migration time depends on the number of subscriptions and related data. During migration, ChaChing continues monitoring Stripe and imports any new subscriptions created.
