For online shops

Catch a broken checkout. Sleep through the blips.

A page can load fine and still sell nothing. Uptime Beacon checks that each page shows the words it should, then alerts you only when a second location sees it too.

Example check. It runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.Sped up: a real incident waits for 3 failed checks in a row by default.
A basic up/down check

Waiting for the first check.

Uptime Beacon

Checks the page loads and shows the right words.

    Watch these four pages free.

    Free covers 5 monitors from Germany, each with a phrase it must contain. Paid plans confirm every failure from a second location.

    A check that only asks if the page loads reports it as up, while the payment form fails to load.

    Uptime Beacon

    Each monitor can require a phrase on the page. When "Pay now" goes missing, the check fails like any outage.

    Phrase checks are on every plan, Free included. Uptime Beacon checks pages, it does not click through a purchase. Add one monitor per step that takes money.

    What an unnoticed hour costs you.

    Move the sliders to your own numbers. This is your estimate, not ours. The point is how fast it adds up when nobody notices the checkout is broken.

    Most shops start on Starter.

    Enough monitors for every page that takes money, checked every 2 minutes from up to 3 locations, with a second location confirming before anyone is alerted.

    Just trying it on one site? Free covers 5 monitors from Germany. Want a branded status page? That is Pro.

    Shop owners ask.

    Anything else goes to support@uptimebeacon.eu.

    Can it tell me the checkout actually works?

    It checks each page you add: that it loads, how fast, and a phrase the page must contain, such as "Pay now". It does not click through a purchase, so add one monitor for each step that takes money.

    Does it work with my shop platform?

    If the page has a public URL, it works. Hosted platforms and your own build are the same to Uptime Beacon, and there is nothing to install in the shop.

    Will a slow minute on a sale day alert me?

    No. A monitor has to fail several checks in a row before an incident opens, and on paid plans a second location has to see the same failure. Slow responses are logged with their timing so you can see which part got slow.

    Can customers see a status page?

    Yes. Free includes 1 public status page. From Starter it can sit on your own domain, and from Pro you can add your logo, colour and a message.

    We update the shop during the day. Will that set it off?

    Start a maintenance window on a paid plan and nobody is alerted while it runs. It can last from 5 minutes to 7 days.
