Our checks
Every 5 minutes two independent servers request the PayPal home page (www.paypal.com) without signing in. We call it an outage only when both fail to get any answer.

Some sites answer automated checks with a block page (HTTP 403) or a rate limit (HTTP 429); that still means the site is online.

What to do if PayPal is not working
- Check the official status page and the time of the last update.
- Test another website. If nothing loads, the problem is your connection.
- Do not retry a payment many times; check your account history first to avoid duplicate charges.
- Use the bank's official app or phone line, never links from unexpected messages.
- Card payments may still work in stores when the app or website is down.
