Payment gateway problems

Posted by David Greiner on August 10, 2007

Anyone trying to pay for a campaign for the last few hours would have noticed a frustrating "Server busy" message. Our sincere apologies for this. Turns out our payment gateway is having some unscheduled downtime.

We're working with them as I type this and will post an update here the moment they're back online. Not that it's any consolation, but we'll be moving to a new and more reliable merchant provider in the next few weeks. This one's frustrating for everyone.

Update: We're back online and accepting payments again. Thanks so much for your patience as this issue was resolved and apologies again for any delays this caused.

Care to share the name of the new merchant provider?

Sure Anita, it's actually a combination of PayPal's Payflow Pro and the NAB (National Australia Bank).

Got anything to add?
