Chargebee Salesforce (v1.41+) 

Chargebee provides a highly customizable integration with Salesforce . By maintaining a one-to-one relationship between Chargebee customer records and Salesforce accounts, the integration keeps both the systems up-to-date. Chargebee subscriptions can be directly created and managed from Salesforce.

Based on the configuration, the integration creates or updates records within the following standard objects in Salesforce:

• Account
• Contact
• Lead
• Opportunity
• Opportunity Product
• Product
• Price Book
• Price Book Entry

Additionally, custom objects are also created and updated with Chargebee data.
