Issue

We have become aware of a fault with some of the network equipment being used by our network connectivity provider.

This is causing some data corruption for CabCard POS terminals when processing transactions. The most common symptom of this issue is that a user may see the message “cancelling transaction” after attempting to process a payment. This is currently affecting a small number of transactions only (approximately 1%).

In all cases, users should simply retry the transaction.

At the moment, we believe that this issue is affecting only 3G POS Terminals (4G Terminals are not affected).

Our service provider is working to investigate and fix this issue. Until this is resolved, we will post updates to our status page.

Please note that payment links and SoftPOS (CabCard Go) are unaffected by this issue, and may be a suitable alternative for affected customers.
