Update timeline

  1. investigating Aug 21, 2025, 06:29 PM UTC

    At approximately 2:00 PM EST, we identified an issue where some HTTP requests may have failed to connect to Basis Theory. Our team is actively investigating the matter to determine the root cause and ensure a swift resolution. At this time, we believe there is a network issue on certain colo’s on edge service routing and not core services within our core services or infrastructure - this only affects certain regional colos.

  2. resolved Aug 21, 2025, 08:06 PM UTC

    After investigation, we confirmed the issue stemmed from a network performance problem with one of our edge cloud providers in the Ashburn, VA (IAD) region. This impacted a portion of traffic routed through this area, but our core infrastructure and services remained unaffected. The issue has been fully resolved as of 3:48 PM EST, and all traffic is now operating normally. We are continuing to monitor for stability.
