API recovered
Webhooks went down
Our API is currently unreachable, a fix is underway.
Everything is back to normal
Root cause was a FastAPI + OpenTelemetry incompatibility on the latest 0.137 version. We're investigating how this slipped through our rigorous deployment checks.
Checkout went down
Some parts of the merchant dashboard may be slower or fail to load as a consequence of our recent database issues. We're working to resolve this soon.
Some parts of the merchant dashboard may be slower or fail to load as a consequence of our recent database issues. We've noticed that this is leading to slower processing and webhook delivery too. We're working to resolve this soon.
Everything is back to normal.
Due to issues with our database provider, all services are currently unavailable. We're working with them to get this resolved as quickly as possible. We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Everything is up and running again.
There is an issue with the email send out causing the 2 factor code to not be sent on the login page. We are investigating.
Tasks are being processed timely again.
System events are now showing up again.
Event ingestion working as expected again
Checkout links are functional but are returning 0 tax rate.
We're seeing degraded performance of our dashboard & checkout flows due to issues at our downstream hosting providers (Vercel & AWS). Webhooks and payment processing are not affected.
Downstream issues appear to have been resolved or mitigated. We're still monitoring the issue until AWS & Vercel declare the issue fully resolved on their end.
