About Our PayPal Status Page Integration

PayPal is a Finance, eCommerce, and Payments solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since July 2018. Over the past over 4 years, we have collected data on on more than 1,786 outages that affected PayPal users. When PayPal publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 103 components and 15 groups using 4 different statuses: up, warn, down, and maintenance which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

More than 700 StatusGator users monitor PayPal to get notified when it's down, is under maintenance, or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular ecommerce services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 68,600 notifications to our users about PayPal incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.

If PayPal is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.

Warn notifications are used when PayPal is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

PayPal posts separate notifications for planned maintenance work. StatusGator will notify subscribers when PayPal enters a pre-planned maintenance window, keeping you up to date.

PayPal does not publish a feed of proactive maintenance events on their status page at this time. If they do, be sure to let us know and we'll aggregate PayPal maintenance events into your unified calendar.

At this time, we do not collect status messages from the PayPal status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

At this time, we do not collect detailed status updates from the PayPal status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

Because PayPal has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
