Troubleshooting

How to fix Stripe not working

Stripe 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 stripe.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

Check Stripe's official status page
Open https://status.stripe.com/ and look for an active incident. If Stripe reports one, wait for the fix instead of changing your account settings. If the page is clear, move to the next step.
Reload the Dashboard in a private window
Open a private or incognito window and sign in to the Dashboard. If the page loads there, clear your browser cache and cookies for Stripe, then try again in your normal window. For payment pages, test with a different card and a different network to rule out a local connection problem.
Confirm your API keys and mode
In the Dashboard, go to Developers, then API keys. Check that the publishable key and secret key belong to the same mode, test or live, as the integration you are running. If you recently rotated keys, update your environment variables and restart your server.
Inspect webhook deliveries and logs
In the Dashboard, open Developers, then Webhooks, and select the endpoint that is failing. Look at the recent delivery attempts for a response outside the success range, then check your server logs for the matching request. For local testing, run stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/webhook in the Stripe CLI and compare the events it prints with what your handler receives.

Error messages

Common Stripe error messages

What each message means and what to try. The wording can differ a little between app versions.

Your card was declined.

Means
The bank that issued the card refused the charge, and it does not pass the specific reason back to the site.

Fix
Try another card, or call the number on the back of the card and ask why the payment was blocked.
Your card has insufficient funds.

Means
The card does not have enough available balance or credit to cover the amount.

Fix
Use a different card or another payment method. If the balance should be fine, ask your bank about holds on the account.
Your card's security code is incorrect.

Means
The short code entered does not match the one the bank has on file for that card.

Fix
Retype the code straight from the card. On some cards it sits on the front rather than the back.
Your card number is incorrect.

Means
The digits entered do not match a valid card number, so the payment stops before it reaches your bank.

Fix
Compare the number with the card and enter it again. Leave no spaces or dashes.

While Stripe is down: what to use instead

Stripe status page Check it before you change anything, because it lists parts of the service such as the API and the Dashboard separately, so you can tell whether the fault is on Stripe's side or in your own integration.
PayPal If you already have a PayPal business account, a PayPal button on your checkout lets customers keep paying while card payments are stuck.
Square Point of Sale Handy for counter sales with a card reader.
Bank transfer invoice Send the customer an invoice with your bank details and let them pay by transfer; it is slower to clear, but you keep the order instead of losing it at a failed checkout.

Your device

Fix Stripe on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Stripe on Windows

Fix: Clear your browser cache and cookies, or temporarily disable any firewall settings blocking Stripe's API domains. You can also try accessing the Stripe Dashboard in an Incognito window.
Check: Visit the official Stripe Status page to check for active outages, or use your browser's developer console to look for connection errors to Stripe.

Command Prompt

ping stripe.comTest whether Stripe's servers reply

nslookup stripe.comCheck that Stripe's DNS resolves

tracert stripe.comTrace where the connection drops

ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

Stripe on Mac

Fix: Force refresh your browser page to reload Stripe, and check that Safari or Chrome extensions aren't blocking Stripe's payment scripts. Ensure your macOS network settings are not blocking secure connections.
Check: Check the Stripe Status dashboard for platform-wide issues, or use network diagnostics to verify if your Mac can reach Stripe's servers.

Terminal

ping -c 4 stripe.comTest whether Stripe's servers reply

nslookup stripe.comCheck that Stripe's DNS resolves

traceroute stripe.comTrace where the connection drops

sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

Stripe on Android

Fix: Clear the cache for the Stripe Dashboard app in your Android settings, or update the app to the latest version in the Google Play Store.
Check: Open the Stripe app to see if it displays connection timeout errors, or try loading the Stripe website on a mobile browser to isolate the issue.

Stripe on iPhone and iPad

Fix: Force close and restart the Stripe app on your iPhone, or reinstall it from the App Store if the dashboard fails to load. Ensure cellular data is enabled for the app in your settings.
Check: Look for network error alerts within the Stripe iOS app, or check the system status page using Safari to see if Stripe is experiencing downtime.

About

What happens when Stripe goes down

Stripe is a payments platform. Businesses use it to accept cards, manage subscriptions, send invoices, and handle payouts; when it goes down, your checkout page can fail, recurring charges may not process, the dashboard can stall, and API calls may return errors.

Card payments break first: your customers see a processing error at checkout, and your payment intents stop confirming. Your dashboard may not load, and subscription renewals can fail without a clear reason. Payouts might sit pending longer than usual, and API calls can return server errors for hours. Problems can be partial: they hit one card network or one region while the rest of the service keeps working.

Questions

Stripe FAQ

Is Stripe down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether reports are above their usual level. If an official status page is listed above, check it for the service's own notices. To see if the problem is only on your side, try a different network or another device; if the same failure follows you, your connection or account is the likely cause.

Why do my Stripe API requests return 'Invalid API Key provided'?

Key mismatches cause that error. You may be using a key from the wrong mode, such as a test key for live charges, or the key was rolled and the old one stopped working; check the key in your dashboard's API settings and match it to the mode your code expects, then restart your server so the new value loads.

Why did my Stripe Checkout session fail with 'Your card was declined'?

The card issuer sends that decline, so the service may not be at fault. Ask your customer to try another card or contact their bank; if every card fails for every customer, test a different payment method and check the official status page for payment disruptions.

Why are my Stripe webhooks not arriving after a payment succeeds?

A webhook can fail because your endpoint returned an error or the signing secret does not match. Check your webhook logs in the dashboard for failed deliveries; if your endpoint returned an error, fix that response and resend the event, and if the logs show no attempts, the problem is likely on the service's side.

Why does the Stripe app show a blank screen or fail to load my balance?

The mobile app can struggle when your session expires or the device has poor connectivity. Force close the app and sign in again; if the balance still does not load, switch between Wi-Fi and cellular data and open the dashboard in a browser to see whether the issue follows your account.

How we track Stripe

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Stripe, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Stripe, 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. This is separate from Stripe's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
