payment provider Javascript errors Oct 2024
Open, LowPublic

Description

We've seen 7 donors this month report getting the message 'Could not load payment provider Javascript error' before entering PII or pressing Donate. We're continuing to triage these, and hopefully will receive more concrete info re: whether they're using browser add-ons, and also the precise URLs they're using and whether they're seeing this during a Gr4vy test. We're unable to see their error reference #s at any PSP consoles.

Not a huge number of tickets so far but just in case there is any underlying bug here. What we hope to be able to provide is the best possible messaging for donors who get this message.
