No downtime Partial Downtime Not measurable No data

Measured by FlareWarden's own checks of donorbox.org from multiple regions every 6 hours. Donorbox's status page sets the verdict above when it reports trouble, but never these figures. Percentages count only checks that returned an availability answer — 7 days measured so far. A dash means that window does not yet hold enough measured days to publish a figure.

What Donorbox does

Donorbox is fundraising software for nonprofits, churches, schools and political groups. Organizations embed its donation forms on their own websites or use hosted pages, and run recurring donations, peer-to-peer campaigns, events and ticketing, memberships, text-to-give and in-person kiosks from one dashboard. Payments go through connected processors such as Stripe and PayPal, so a Donorbox problem usually shows up as donations not coming in.

What an outage looks like

Donation forms or campaigns fail to load on your site, embedded or hosted, as on March 13, 2026 for about half an hour. Event forms may not appear (June 8, 2026). Forms using PayPal as the only processor showed a We're still setting up donations error on December 4, 2025. During the October 20, 2025 AWS outage, users had trouble logging in and loading donorbox.org.

What to do about it

Check status.donorbox.org, which lists donation forms, Stripe, PayPal, email receipts, P2P campaigns, events, the APIs and each integration separately. If only one processor is affected, enabling a second one on your form may keep donations coming. After an incident, compare donations in Donorbox against your Stripe or PayPal dashboard, and check that receipt emails went out before resending them.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says Donorbox is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

Donorbox outage FAQ

Is Donorbox down or is it just my donation form?
Check status.donorbox.org first, which marks each part of Donorbox separately. Most Donorbox incidents have hit one feature, such as event forms or campaigns, rather than the whole platform. If the status page is green and donorbox.org loads, look at your own form's settings and payment processor connection, and test the form from a private browser window.
Why does my Donorbox form say We're still setting up donations?
On December 4, 2025 this error appeared on forms of organizations using PayPal as their only payment processor, mainly on Donorbox-hosted pages, and blocked donations for about an hour. Donorbox traced it to a configuration problem in its PayPal connection and fixed it. If you see it with no incident posted, check that your processor is still connected in Donorbox.
Does a Stripe or PayPal outage affect Donorbox?
Yes. Donorbox takes payments through the processor you connect, and its status page lists Stripe and PayPal as their own components. If your processor is down, donations through it fail even while Donorbox itself works. Check the processor's own status page as well, and consider connecting a second processor so donors have another way to pay.
Did the AWS and Cloudflare outages affect Donorbox?
Both did. On October 20, 2025 Donorbox said parts of its infrastructure rely on AWS and Heroku, and users had trouble logging in and loading donorbox.org until about 18:54 UTC. During the November 18, 2025 Cloudflare outage, Donorbox reported outdated form versions, delayed updates and intermittent form caching errors.
How long do Donorbox outages usually last?
Most incidents on status.donorbox.org were resolved in under an hour. A platform-wide incident on June 29, 2026 lasted about 18 minutes, the March 2026 campaign loading problem about 28 minutes and the June 2026 event forms problem about 35 minutes. A peer-to-peer campaigns issue in November 2025 took nearly three days to fully resolve.

How we measure this

  • We request Donorbox's public endpoint every 6 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 8 of them. When you open this page and our last check is more than 30 minutes old, we check again on the spot; those checks update the verdict, never the availability figures.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. Our checks only change their verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where Donorbox publishes an official status feed we read it too, and the verdict is the worse of what it reports and what our checks see: a major outage of Donorbox itself is Down, trouble with one part of it is Degraded, problems at a few of a provider's many locations change nothing, and a security notice that marks nothing down is shown but changes nothing either. We check the feed every 3 minutes and read it again within minutes of any change to its incidents or components; a reading counts for 45 minutes after the last check that found nothing changed. The availability figures above are our measurement alone.

Get alerted when Donorbox goes down

We check Donorbox every 6 hours, and again when you open this page if that was more than 30 minutes ago. Your own monitors run as often as every 30 seconds, from up to 17 cities across three regions, and tell you the moment something breaks.
