Summary AI Generated
Marqeta experienced an increased rate of declines for card-present transactions using magnetic stripe swipe, causing physical cards in good standing to be incorrectly declined at point-of-sale locations. The issue affected the Payment Processing component and persisted for 8.5 hours before engineers successfully resolved all instances. Cardholders would have experienced unexpected transaction failures despite having valid cards and sufficient account status.
