Creation of payment requests fails

Incident Report for Mews

Postmortem

Overview

Less than 0.5% of properties were unable to create payment requests. All affected customers had multicurrency enabled. The issue was caused by incorrect handling of multicurrency status checks introduced in the release.

Action

The issue was resolved by reverting the update that introduced the faulty logic. After the rollback, payment request creation returned to normal for all affected properties.

Causes

Due to the update, payment gateway accounts data did not load correctly. This caused an error when retrieving multicurrency status, which resulted in payment requests being blocked.

Solution

The hotfix was deployed by reverting the multicurrency status changes introduced in the update. Improvements to test coverage and alerting are underway to help prevent similar issues in the future.
