We are currently experiencing intermittent disruptions with some eftpos payment processing at point of sale. As a workaround, we recommend customers use a non-eftpos card such as a Visa, Mastercard or Amex. Your ability to accept payments is our top priority and our Engineering team is working rapidly to resolve this issue. We appreciate your patience during this disruption.

What to do next
- Verify your own services recovered cleanly. Some upstream outages leave queues or caches in a degraded state, run smoke tests before declaring green internally.
- Save the post-mortem. Vendors usually publish a detailed RCA 1-3 days later. We'll add it to this page when it appears.
- Watch the provider going forward. Follow Square's status feed →
GlobalOutageMap aggregates publicly reported signals. We never claim authoritative status, always cross-check the provider's official channel before making business decisions.
