About bunq
bunq is a Dutch mobile-first bank with no branches, so the app is the only channel most customers have. That makes app availability effectively identical to bank availability for its users.
Common bunq problems
- App will not load or log in, which locks out access entirely since there is no full-featured web alternative for every function.
- Payments and transfers not going through, or showing as pending far longer than the usual near-instant processing.
- Push notifications missing for received payments.
- Apple Pay or Google Pay transactions declined while the app itself works.
- API or integration errors affecting business customers who connect accounts to accounting tools.
Where to check officially
- bunq publishes a status page at bunq.com/status.
- bunq is also unusually communicative on its own community forum during incidents.
- Support runs through the in-app chat.
What to do when bunq is down
- Check the official status page first, for bunq it is genuinely maintained during incidents.
- Do not uninstall the app. Reinstalling during an outage means going through login and verification again while systems are unstable.
- Keep a second payment method. With no branches or web fallback, an app outage leaves no alternative channel.
- Business users: pause automated API jobs rather than letting them retry into a failing endpoint.

- Can I still pay if the bunq app is down?
- Cards already provisioned in Apple Pay or Google Pay often keep working during an app outage, because card authorisation runs over separate infrastructure. This is not guaranteed.
- Why does bunq have no internet banking fallback?
- bunq is designed mobile-first. There is a web interface, but the app remains the primary channel, which makes app outages more disruptive than at traditional banks.
