Incident Report for Azupay

Identified

We have had a recurrence of this issue with our NPP banking provider and we are working with them to resolve it.

The following services as affected::

• PayID Resolution
• Account Resolution
• PayID Enquiry
• Register PayID
• Update PayID Name
• Update PayID Status

As Azupay registers PayIDs asynchronously for payment requests, for in flight payment requests raised after the incident begun at 17:40 AEST customers using our payment request app may see a payID checkout but will be unable to process these payment requests with their bank, as the PayIDs will not yet be registered on the NPP network.

These requests are being queued by our system and will be registered once our NPP banking partner recovers relevant services.

Payment Requests raised prior to the incident should operate as expected and should be able to receive payments.
