Why am I seeing Still loading... or Something went wrong on Target.com or in the Target app? 

  • Target may briefly display a Still loading... message while automatically verifying that browsing activity appears to be from a real guest and not automated traffic.
    You do not need to:
    • Complete a puzzle  
    • Enter a code  
    • Select images  
  • Note : In most cases, the page will continue loading after a few seconds.
  • If the automatic check cannot be completed, you may see:
    • Something went wrong 
    • Please try again in a bit or use another device  
  • These protections help safeguard Target.com and the Target app from automated activity that can affect:
    • Guest accounts  
    • Checkout  
    • Promotions  
    • Inventory availability  
    • Site performance 

What should I do first? 

  • If You See "Still loading..."
    • Wait a few seconds for the page to finish loading.

    • Refresh the page and try again.  
    • Close and reopen your browser or the Target app.

    • Try another device. 

Why am I seeing this message?

  • You may see a loading or error message if Target is automatically checking your browser, device, or network connection.
  • This can sometimes occur because of:
    • VPN software

    • Network proxying software  
    • Disabled cookies or JavaScript  
    • Work, school, or public Wi-Fi networks  
    • Repeated browsing, sign-in, or checkout attempts
