Why can't I download Oberlo while on holiday in India?

Dear reader,

I am on holiday in India and trying to do some work on my online store while I am here. I am still relatively new to Shopify, but I cannot download Oberlo, even though I was able to download it back in the United Kingdom.

Is there a reason for this and is there any way I can fix it? Or should I wait till I go back to the UK to download the app?

Hi, @Ashwin6

I understand that you are currently looking to do some work on your store, and planned to use Oberlo for your dropshipping business.

The reason you would be unable to download it is that Oberlo has been sunset.

Shopify’s top priority is doing what is in the best interest of our merchants. We are now providing a more optimal dropshipping solution developed by a trusted Shopify partner, DSers. From May 12th, 2022 when we initially announced the sunset until June 30th which was the last day of Oberlo, we offered a seamless migration for merchants previously using Oberlo. You can find DSers on our app store here.

There are plenty of other solutions that might fit your needs also, so I would encourage you also to check out the other dropshipping apps available here.
