Is there a reason you don't want to resort to calling Stripe's API? You could do something where you default to querying your database and fallback to Stripe's API if your database hasn't been updated in time

The reason not to call directly the Stripe's API is to reduce the number of unnecessary calls and improve efficiency. I understand that is the main goal of webhooks. I believe your fallback solution will end calling the Stripe API every time, because there is always a small delay on handling the webhook
