Some users began reporting issues with Apple’s financial services early this morning. The tech giant has since confirmed that there is an outage affecting some users and has said it is investigating the issue.
On the company’s System Status page, it appears the outage affects all of Apple’s financial services. That means Apple Card, Apple Cash, Apple Wallet, and Apple Pay are all down at the moment.
The outage was seemingly discovered sometime around 5:15 A.M., according to the status page. It’s unknown what is causing the outage and there are no estimates on when Apple expects these services to go back up.
