Hi all, I want to open Instagram Shopping but it is showing you are not eligible for Instagram Shopping. What may be the possible reasons for that? The account is a business account running from India but I am managing this account in Australia. What should I do in order to fix this problems
India is not part of the eligible countries list: the US, Canada, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Australia. I assume their system goes by the IP addresses among other factors to determine if an account is eligible to participate. Since that account was originally created in India it can't participate in the program.
I found this article very helpful regarding the approval of instagram shopping - https://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/how-to-get-approved-instagram-shopping-product-tags/ Hope it helps!
