Part 1/4:
Instability in the Pix Payment System
Today began with disturbances in the Pix payment system, which caused significant outages for many users. Numerous complaints were recorded across monitoring websites and social media, as the instability affected various financial institutions, including Nubank, Itaú, Bradesco, and PicPay. Interestingly, some banks, like Banco do Brasil and Inter, reportedly operated without issues during this disruption.
The situation attracted attention, prompting Olhar Digital to reach out to the Central Bank, which oversees the Pix system. By early afternoon, the bank confirmed that their systems were back online and acknowledged that some users had experienced difficulties. They reassured the public that operations were returning to normal.
