Why Connect Newie + Google Calendar

For solo operators and small teams using Google Calendar for sessions, blocks, and follow-ups. Connecting Newie lets paid customers or billing events appear on your calendar for time-blocking, reminders, or team visibility.

​
Common Zaps

Subscription Started → Google Calendar: Create Detailed Event Create a calendar event when billing starts and the subscription becomes active. Use it for onboarding calls or cohort start dates, and map customer name and service to the event. One-Off Purchase Complete → Google Calendar: Create Detailed Event Drop completed one-off purchases onto a “new clients” calendar so you can see them at a glance. Payment Overdue → Google Calendar: Create Detailed Event Create a follow-up event a day or two out to remind yourself to chase the customer. Subscription Ends → Google Calendar: Create Detailed Event Block a short retention check-in call on the day a subscription ends.

​
What You’ll Need

  • Newie account with Zapier connected (Settings → Integrations → Zapier)
  • A Google account with access to the calendar you want to write to
  • A dedicated Google Calendar if you want billing events separate from your main schedule (recommended)

​
Setup at a Glance

  1. In Newie, go to Settings → Integrations → Zapier and copy your API token.
  2. In Zapier, create a new Zap and choose Newie as the trigger. Pick the trigger event.
  3. Connect Google Calendar as the action app and sign in.
  4. Choose Create Detailed Event (or Quick Add Event for simpler entries).
  5. Pick the target calendar, then map Newie fields into the event title, description, and start time. Use a fixed offset (e.g. “1 day from now”) via Formatter by Zapier if you want a scheduled follow-up.
  6. Test, then enable.
See Connecting Newie to Zapier for setup details.

​
Notes

  • Google Calendar events need a start time. If your Zap doesn’t have one, use Formatter by Zapier → Date / Time to generate one.
  • Use Subscription Created only for pre-start admin reminders, because it fires when the customer first purchases. Use Subscription Started when the calendar event represents the billing start date or active paid access.
  • Use a dedicated calendar so billing-driven events don’t clutter your main schedule.
