Not enough coverage yet
We have been tracking payments services since Aug 8, 2026. A reliability report and league table needs 90 days of coverage for every service it speaks for, and we are 66 days short; the earliest it could be published is Nov 6, 2026.
We do not publish a ranking, an average or a share from a record shorter than the claim it makes. The measurements keep accumulating in the meantime, and each service's own page shows everything we have measured so far.
What counts as ranked
A payment provider is ranked only once we have watched it for the entire window: a service added partway through is named and left out rather than ranked on a partial record, and a service we have never observed does not appear at all. We do not fill a gap with an assumed 100% and we do not rank a category with fewer than three qualifying services; a category that thin renders the honest “not enough coverage yet” state above instead of a table, with the date that changes as our record grows.
Ties rank equal on uptime, then fewer outage minutes, then fewer outages, then name, so the order is a function of the data alone. Full rules: methodology.
What this is not
This is a measured leaderboard, not a recommendation. No provider pays for placement, no ranking is editorialized, and nothing here says which service to choose for your use case, only which one our probes measured as up more often over this window. A provider with a short outage this quarter and a long record of reliability otherwise can still rank below one that has simply not been watched long enough to have an incident yet.
