Scheduled

We'll be applying minor patches on our databases on GOV.UK Pay at 4am GMT (5am BST) on Sunday 9 October 2022.

As our databases are replicated across different zones, we don't anticipate any downtime for users; however, it is possible errors may occur when using the GOV.UK Pay API, admin tool or making payments for a very short period of about 10 seconds during the shift to a database replica.

If you have questions in advance of the maintenance please contact us via govuk-pay-support@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk or on Slack.
