   On Friday, August 7, 2026, beginning around 8:00 AM MDT, some customers experienced slow or inconsistent Platform performance. This affected workflows such as loading lists, adding supporters, imports, and entering offline transactions. Some actions may have timed out in the browser even though the server-side request later completed, which may have caused duplicate records when the action was retried. PayPal checkout attempts may also have seen intermittent failures during this period. Our investigation identified abusive automated traffic targeting a public PayPal checkout endpoint. This traffic caused upstream PayPal rate limiting and increased load on Platform services, contributing to elevated latency and intermittent errors. We applied additional traffic filtering and rate controls, and the service is recovering. We are continuing to monitor Platform latency, error rates, and payment behavior. We are also preparing an application-level protection update to further reduce the likelihood of similar PayPal order-creation traffic affecting Platform availability.

   We are currently experiencing an issue with our live chat functionality due to an ongoing outage with Intercom, our third-party chat provider. Intercom has confirmed a service disruption affecting Inbox, Messenger, Fin, and related developer features in the US region. As a result, live chat and in-app messaging may be unavailable or not function as expected at this time. Please note that this issue is isolated to Intercom and does not impact the core functionality of our platform. Intercom is actively investigating and working to restore service. We will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates here as more information becomes available. Thank you for your patience.

   We’ve completed an initial investigation of the major AWS outage mentioned in the retroactive post (https://status.funraise.org/incidents/h5bvwz1fy8kv) and confirmed that Funraise’s core services remain operational and unaffected. However, we are seeing impact at the boundaries where third-party platforms are experiencing issues—specifically with integrations. Some data syncs to external systems are failing, most notably Salesforce, which is currently reporting an ongoing outage. We are actively monitoring these dependencies and will provide updates as third-party services recover.

   The issues impacting Funraise services due to the AWS outage have been fully resolved. All systems are now operating normally. Thank you for your patience while we monitored and restored stability.
