    Visa authorization errors

    Some Visa transactions may experience lower authorization rates due to a network token processing issue, starting 00:53 UTC September 30th. Eligible payments can continue using card-number fallback. We're working to resolve the issue; no action is required.

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 Stripe's status feed →
