Questions

Is Shopify down right now?

Shopify’s official status page says: All Systems Operational. This page checks it again when you load it, at most every 5 minutes.

When was Shopify last down?

Shopify has reported no incidents in the last 90 days.

Which parts of Shopify are tracked here?

Shopify reports 9 components on its status page, including Admin, Checkout, Reports and Dashboards, Storefront, API & Mobile. Each is checked again whenever this page refreshes.

What should I do if Shopify is down?

Do not retry a payment that may have gone through; check the dashboard first, and keep orders pending until the provider confirms.

Shopify admin won't open — can customers still check out?

Usually yes — 'Admin', 'Storefront' and 'Checkout' are separate components. A merchant-facing incident doesn't take the storefront or checkout down.

POS terminals failing while online orders work?

'Point of Sale' is its own component — in-store systems can degrade while online Checkout keeps taking orders.

How do I tell if Shopify is down for everyone or only for me?

If the status above is operational but Shopify still fails for you, the cause is probably on your side: try another network, clear the cache, or check your own connection. If it shows a degradation or an outage, others are affected too.

How can I get alerted when my own site goes down?

OpenUptime checks your site every minute and sends an alert to Slack, Telegram, email or a webhook the moment it stops responding. It is open source and free to start.
