Every company investigates alone
Is the problem in your code, your provider, the bank on the other end or the whole ecosystem? Without a public reference, every company investigates from scratch, all at the same time.
Status Page
A free, public page that shows how Open Finance banks and services are performing. The data is measured by our own production infrastructure.

The problem
Failures in the ecosystem don't come with a warning. Usually, the first sign is a customer complaining or a transaction that stopped going through. The information about the failure exists, but it takes time to reach the people who operate.
Is the problem in your code, your provider, the bank on the other end or the whole ecosystem? Without a public reference, every company investigates from scratch, all at the same time.
Every hour of investigation costs engineering time, reputation and revenue. The question "is it us or the ecosystem?" should have an answer in seconds.
The solution
We track the calls our infrastructure makes to the APIs of each Open Finance institution, in the two regulated-use groups: customer data and payments. Availability is calculated over a rolling 1-hour window.
Coverage
We monitor customer data APIs (registration, accounts, cards, credit and investments) and payment APIs (one-off Pix, Pix Automático and the device binding of the Redirect-free Journey). Brands under the same CNPJ are combined in the calculation.
Availability
An institution's overall availability dilutes isolated failures: an endpoint with a 60% error rate can disappear into a 98% average. That is why we also assess each API separately, and a single degraded API already changes the bank's status.
Failures
We count as a failure any server error (5xx) or call with no response. Caller errors (4xx), such as an invalid request or a revoked consent, are left out, because they are not the bank's failure.
Journey
We show the median (p50) response time per institution and per endpoint, and the journey completion rate: how many users redirected to the bank came back with a valid authorization. Conversion does not change the status, because it usually reflects friction in the bank's flow.
Companies that buy Open Finance infrastructure and need to know whether the problem is the vendor's, the bank's or the ecosystem's.
The people who run payments and credit day to day and need to answer quickly whether a failure is internal or external.
Anyone integrating with Open Finance who needs a status source to investigate production issues without opening a ticket.
Account-holding institutions, initiators and transmitters that track the health of their connected partners and of the ecosystem.
Anyone initiating payments through Open Finance who needs to know when a bank's payment APIs degrade, before payments fail at scale.
Platforms that depend on several bank connections and need to tell a bank's failure from an ecosystem failure.
How it works
Our production infrastructure checks the availability of each participant and of the central services, per institution, per service and per endpoint.
Every 15 minutes outside business hours and every 10 during business hours. When many people open the page at once, a sign of an incident, checks run every 5 minutes and can go down to every minute.
When something deviates from the norm, the status changes on the next check and is visible to anyone, with no login.
When a bank goes down, everyone searches. The Status Page was built to show up in those moments, with measured data.
Cumbuca operates at the heart of Brazilian Open Finance and makes real calls every day to participants' data and payment APIs and to the Credit Information System (SCR). When something fails in the ecosystem, our infrastructure notices early.
Publishing this information was a decision. Many status pages sit behind a login. Ours is open, because transparency builds trust in the ecosystem.
“If the information exists and helps the ecosystem, it should be public.”
The 83 Open Finance participants, the Metrics Collection Platform (PCM), the Data Quality Engine (MQD) and the Credit Information System (SCR), open to everyone.
