PayPal express checkout doesn't want to activate

[MCIGA]

Hey there,

I have set my store and picked a plan already, upgraded my PayPal account to Business but in each time I go to payment methods and try to activate PayPal express it doesn't work even that after the redirection to PayPal site everything goes well and I receive a message from PayPal saying that I can now start using PayPal express with Shopify.

Please note that I'm from Algeria and only PayPal express is what I do have as an available payment method (let's not mention Coin thingies).

Is there something I did wrong that made this not really activated?

After I contacted the support in live chat, I have been told that they will escalate my case to their Business Operations team for account review to allow me to use Paypal. This is kinda weird as Shopify should have such restrictions to stop users from using Paypal.
