Payment failures can be due to Stripe outages or card issues. Check our status above and Stripe's dashboard for API errors. Stripe provides detailed error codes (card_declined, insufficient_funds, etc.) to help diagnose issues.
During outages, payment attempts may fail or timeout. Stripe's webhooks may be delayed. Implement idempotency keys and retry logic. Consider showing users a 'try again later' message rather than failing silently.
Stripe queues webhooks during outages and delivers them when service resumes. Webhooks are retried with exponential backoff for up to 3 days. Implement proper webhook handling with idempotency to handle delayed or duplicate events.
For critical e-commerce applications, consider implementing a fallback to PayPal, Square, or Braintree. This adds complexity but ensures business continuity during payment processor outages. Evaluate the trade-offs for your use case.
