Common reasons Stripe looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming Stripe

  1. Make a single test-mode API call — if it returns, the API is up.
  2. Read the error type: card_error is the customer's bank, api_error is Stripe's side.
  3. Check the Dashboard's events log to see whether charges are actually reaching Stripe.
  4. Consult Stripe's status page, which separates API, Dashboard and webhooks.

Stripe status — frequently asked

Is Stripe down right now?

Stripe is up and responding in 104 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 57 seconds ago.

Is it Stripe that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so Stripe can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is Stripe loading slowly?

A slow Stripe usually comes down to one of two things: Stripe's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is Stripe's status checked?

Stripe is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.

Is Stripe down, or was my customer's card declined?

A decline comes back with a card_error and a decline code such as insufficient_funds or do_not_honor — that is the issuing bank refusing, and Stripe is working perfectly. Only api_error responses and 5xx status codes indicate a problem on Stripe's side.
