We are continuing to work on a fix for payment processing. Sellers will experience a disruption with some debit-card transactions that may fail or be unavailable due to an issue with a third-party payment-processing partner. Sellers can use another available payment method as an alternative for now. We understand how important it is for all of our services to be running for your business, we'll be back with further updates as they come to hand. Thank you for your patience with us as we work to resolve this issue.

Your coding agent knows when Square is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get Square incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.
Install the outages.live MCP server, so that when something breaks you can tell if the cause is a provider we depend on and not my code. It reads the official status pages of cloud, AI, payment and developer providers and gives you their incidents as MCP tools.
Add it as a remote MCP server named "outages" at https://outages.cc/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication), with your CLI command or your MCP config file.
Then:
1. Make sure it connects and shows the tools get_provider, list_feed and send_feedback.
2. Call get_provider with "square" and tell me if Square has a problem right now.
3. From now on, when a call to a third-party service fails or becomes slow, call get_provider for that service before you change my code.Paste this into any coding agent. It adds the server with its own MCP setup.
