How to fix Cembra not working
Cembra is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach cembra.ch over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Force quit Cembra
On iPhone, swipe up from the bottom and hold until the app cards appear, then swipe the app card up. On Android, open the Recents or Overview screen and swipe the app card away. Open it again and try to log in.
Check Cembra's connection
Turn off Wi-Fi and use mobile data, or switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you use a VPN, turn it off and open the app again.
Update Cembra and your phone
Open the App Store or Play Store and check for an update for the app. Then go to Settings > General > Software Update on iPhone or Settings > System > System update on Android and install any pending update.
Reinstall Cembra or clear its cache
On Android, go to Settings > Apps > Cembra > Storage & cache > Clear cache first, then Clear storage if the problem stays. On iPhone, touch and hold the app icon, tap Remove App, tap Delete App, then install it again from the App Store. You will need to log in again.
While Cembra is down: what to use instead
- Website login If only the app hangs on the login screen or keeps signing you out, try logging in through the website in a desktop browser, where you can usually still see your balance and statements.
- Your physical card Card payments go through the Mastercard network, so your card often keeps working at shops and online checkouts even when the app won't open.
- QR-bill on your statement To pay your monthly bill before the due date, scan the QR-bill from your statement with your own bank's e-banking app.
- Phone line on your card Call the number on the back of your card if you need to block a lost or stolen card fast.

Problems at the same time as Cembra

What happens when Cembra goes down
Cembra offers credit cards. Swiss cardholders use its app and online banking to check balances and pay bills, so an outage locks you out of account access and payments.
App logins fail first. You enter your password and the app spins then throws you back to the start screen because the account system cannot load your data. Bill payments and card confirmations stall while older statements may still open if they already loaded in your session. Store taps often work while the app stays down.

How we track Cembra
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Cembra, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Cembra, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Cembra doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
