How to fix Discover not working
Discover 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 discover.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Discover.
Update the app
Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.
While Discover is down: what to use instead
- Account website Sign in on the website for payments and statements if the app will not open.
- Phone support Call the number on the back of your card when you need a person and the app will not load.
- Physical card Use the card at a shop or ATM that takes it when the app or website is unavailable and you need to pay or get cash.
- Mobile wallet A wallet already set up with your card can pay in stores while the app is down.
Problems at the same time as Discover
Since 27 October, Discover's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

How we track Discover
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Discover, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Discover, 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. Discover 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.
