Merchant Problem Desk
A structured place for payment questions and practical responses.
Your daily starting point for provider status, payment developments and the changes that deserve your attention.
Country and method filters use names explicitly mentioned in a notice. Unspecified scope is not inferred. News summaries are not incident confirmations.
Three official public status feeds are fetched when Radar is requested. If a hosted check fails, your browser also attempts the same public feed directly without account credentials; the provider can receive your IP address. Responses may be cached for two minutes; the open page refreshes every five minutes while visible. This is not continuous or comprehensive monitoring.
Unavailable feeds remain unknown. We do not observe your transactions, bank balance, reserves or private account. Incident notices are provider-reported; country and method tags only reflect explicit text. Feed coverage and provider reporting can be incomplete.
Announcements and regulatory developments come from Payment Guide’s source-linked news summaries. Publication time is shown separately from the dashboard refresh. Saved follows stay in this browser; no email or push alerts are sent.
