  • Investigating
    Investigating
    Our upstream ISP and data centre provider are currently experiencing intermittent internet connectivity issues following an update completed on June 11th. As a result, Encoded has observed brief interruptions to web-based services overnight, which are continuing intermittently today. In rare cases, customers using web based services may encounter "Error 503: Backend unavailable, connection timeout" messages: * Hosted Payment Pages * Gateway API * Virtual Terminal * Web Modules (e.g., Transactions, Timetables) * IVR (Transaction attempts and API account lookups) These errors typically resolve upon refreshing the page. We are actively working with our upstream partners to identify and resolve the root cause. This page will be updated as soon as more information becomes available.
