Measured since 2026-08-21. Windows reaching further back are averaged over the 19 days we watched, not the full period. Counts our own checks. Days Authorize.net reported an incident are coloured in the timeline above but do not change this figure.

What to do if Authorize.net is down for just you

  • Try a different payment method, since incidents usually hit one card network or local rail rather than all of them.
  • Check whether the failure is at checkout or at settlement, because the two run on separate systems.
  • Look for elevated decline rates in your dashboard rather than outright errors, which is how most payment incidents first appear.
  • Do not retry a charge repeatedly, as duplicate attempts can succeed later and produce double billing.
