Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Why use it

Why teams use this automation

A freelancer invoicing in euros or a shop receiving transfers by Wise has no push signal when money lands unless they keep the Wise app open. They check repeatedly, or wait until a client says it was sent. Work is held back for a deposit that has already arrived, or someone chases a customer who has paid and now feels irritated, which does nothing for the relationship.

When money is credited to one of your Wise balances, Wise sends a webhook, and the automation posts the amount and currency in Slack. The message appears within moments of the credit, so the people who care about the payment know at once.

It is useful for small teams where the person who invoices and the person who ships or schedules work are different.

What you get out of it

Start the job the moment you are paid
If you do not begin until the deposit is in, seeing it immediately lets you kick off the same day. That keeps a project moving instead of losing a day to checking.
No more asking whether it arrived
Anyone in the channel sees the credit, so the ops person stops pinging finance with the question, and finance stops answering the same message several times a week. Fewer interruptions mean finance can keep working on the books rather than answering the same question repeatedly.
Know your currency position
Each alert states the currency, so you see when dollars rather than euros came in, which matters if you plan conversions or need to cover a bill in that currency.
Spot unexpected payments
A credit you did not expect, such as an unfamiliar amount, stands out and can be checked the same day, whether it is a mistaken transfer or an early payment.
Sense of progress for the team
A visible stream of payments helps a small company feel results, and it makes it easy to share good news with everyone without an extra update. Seeing real payments arrive keeps the team connected to the business results, without anyone writing a separate update.

Build your own

Need it to work differently?

This template is a starting point. Copy the prompt and change it, or describe a different automation from scratch, with your own conditions, more apps or an AI step. Your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.

Your own rules
Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.
Any number of apps
One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.
AI where it helps
Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.
On a schedule or on each event
Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

Changes you can ask for

Act only on the items that match your own rules, and skip the rest
Add an AI step, for example to summarize, sort or draft a reply
Add another app, for example also send it to Slack
Combine it with other Wise steps into one automation

Under the hood

The code that runs this automation

This is the Python script that runs each time the automation starts. Your AI assistant writes it for you when you send the prompt, and you allow each step in your assistant. To change how the automation works, describe the change to your assistant and it updates the script for you. For every function it can use, see the script reference.

incoming_payment_alert.pyexample

from clickruntime import on_event, notify

@on_event
def handle(event):
    body = event.json
    if body.get("event_type") != "balances#credit":
        return {"skipped": body.get("event_type")}
    data = body["data"]
    notify.slack(f"Received {data['amount']:,.2f} {data['currency']} "
                 f"(balance now {data['post_transaction_balance_amount']:,.2f})", channel="#income")
    return {"amount": data["amount"], "currency": data["currency"]}

FAQ

Common questions

Which Wise events does this listen for?

It listens for balance credit events, which Wise sends when money arrives in one of your balances. Other events, such as transfer state changes, are handled by separate automations so that each alert stays clear.

Does the message reveal the sender's name?

The message includes the amount and currency from the event. Details about the sender depend on what Wise provides in the payload, so ask for specific fields if you need a reference or description shown.

Can I get alerts only for large payments?

Yes. The amount is part of the event, so the automation can post only when it exceeds a threshold you choose, for example 500, and stay quiet for smaller credits. Smaller credits can still be logged elsewhere if you want a full record.

What permissions does it need?

read. Nothing else in your accounts is used.

Does it need AI?

No. It runs without AI, so it doesn't use your plan's AI allowance.

How many runs does it use?

One run for each event the app sends.

Can I change how it works?

Yes. Describe the change to your AI assistant, for example a different schedule, channel or filter. It updates the automation, tests it and tells you what changed.
