Main issue: Several stores see “SSL pending” on custom domains/subdomains, blocking checkout for at least one merchant. Most cases trace to DNS propagation delays (typically a few hours, up to 48–72 hours) or misconfigured DNS.
Primary causes highlighted:
Multiple or incorrect A records, especially affecting the www subdomain.
Incorrect A record values on both root and subdomains.
Guidance provided:
Use Shopify’s domain connection guide; edit DNS either in Shopify (Online store > Domains > Manage > DNS settings) or at the registrar (e.g., GoDaddy).
Ensure exactly one A record for the root domain pointing to Shopify’s IP; remove extra/conflicting A records.
Hey,I’m having these same issues. My redirect domain’s SSL is pending for a quite a long time, I tried all the solutions but it hasn’t changes. I’m using Hostinger’s domain for my site[www.eeriya.in
After taking a closer look, it looks like your domain is correctly pointing to Shopify. Due to this, I’d encourage you to connect with our support team directly. This will us to get you authenticated, as we wouldn’t have access to any account details here through the Community. They will be able to take a closer look to ensure this gets resolved.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
