This issue has been resolved. All services should be restored.
@LaraL thanks for letting us know, I just tried to log into the browser extension and was trying to figure out if it was a me problem or not.
Thank you for keeping us updated @LaraL. I thought someone funny was going on when I wanted to use my earnings to buy a gift card and it said it wasn’t available right now. I panicked a little hoping my account wasn’t locked by the bot!
@Lakelady126 just checked and your account is definitely not locked, it seems to be related to the outage.
Hi @Vine,
Sounds like what you're experiencing is related to the server outage we're currently seeing. We'll post updates here shortly so hang tight while we work to get this resolved.
I read that Amazon was down along with other sites. Problem with Amazon Web Services cloud servers.

is the fact that i get the the message when trying to check king soopers and get told this retailer isn't in the app right now relsted to this outage?
@Joblingm most likely, yes.
Seems AWS (the server we use) is aware of the issue and working on a resolution, so hopefully we'll be seeing everything back up here soon.
It is something pretty big
