ATDS Checkout Throttling Bug – 10-Year Shopify Store – 0 Orders for Hours – No TMS Response (4+ Days) I am a 10-year Shopify merchant and my store has been experiencing a severe recurring checkout failure for the past 3 months.
Orders suddenly stop for 6–12 hours at a time despite confirmed high traffic.
This has happened repeatedly and only resolves when a Shopify support advisor or staff member opens my store admin — indicating an issue with Shopify’s Automated Traffic Defense System (ATDS) or rate-limiting.
Tanzania merchant selling to US: Store unavailable locally and PayPal/Stripe restrictions
I also need to clarify that inside my store, all my products are currently showing as “Unavailable” to buyers.
I have already double-checked my shipping settings, and everything under my shipping profile is set up properly with the correct rates and locations (using AutoDS and CJdropshipping). Even though my fulfillment and shipping profiles are completely configured and active, the products still say “Unavailable” on the storefront.
Could this be related to my store being physically located in Tanzania while targeting the US market? How can I fix this so my products become visible and available for purchase immediately?
