What should I do if AliExpress is down for me?

Try the checkout rather than the homepage. Storefronts are heavily cached and stay up while the cart, payment or inventory systems behind them are failing. Do not resubmit a payment that appeared to fail. During an incident a duplicate submission is the most common way one order becomes two. Open the site in a private window. A stale cart cookie can produce checkout errors that look like the store being down. Check whether the app and the website disagree. Retail apps often run against a separate API and fail on their own.

Over the last 7 days, AliExpress has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~826 ms. The most recent outage began 2026-11-04 04:12 UTC and lasted 15m (severity: degraded).

AliExpress is Alibaba's cross-border marketplace, connecting mostly Chinese sellers to international buyers. Browsing is served from an edge network worldwide while checkout and payment run centrally, so the two fail apart.

Is AliExpress down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching AliExpress normally right now, and it answered our last one in 975ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.
