What is a Shopify migration?

Shopify migration services move your store, data and essential workflows to Shopify. The work can include custom development, design, integrations, SEO and launch support.

We assess what your business needs to keep running, what should change and what may need manual work or an app before the new store goes live.

Why should I migrate to Shopify?

If your current platform creates too much maintenance, limits integrations or makes everyday store updates difficult, Shopify may offer a more manageable alternative through hosted ecommerce and a broad integration ecosystem.

A migration is also an opportunity to remove redundant apps, refresh outdated content and simplify workflows as your business grows or changes.

Plan around business priorities and allow time for testing, particularly when avoiding peak trading periods and major campaigns.

Discuss your migration

What does a Shopify migration service include?

We map the store, content, systems and customer journeys that need to work together after the move.

Ecommerce site migration audit

Review your current store, data and integrations to identify technical dependencies and potential problems before they disrupt workflows.

Sales data migration

Map and validate products, variants, customers and agreed historical orders to catch missing details, incorrect SKUs and inconsistent records.

Content and metadata migration

Assess pages, blogs, images, reviews and metadata, identifying items that need manual work or an app.

Shopify theme development

Build or adapt the storefront around your brand and customer journeys, keeping familiar layouts and useful functionality where they work well.

Integration and plugin setup

Assess payment, stock, fulfilment and marketing connections, including whether an existing connector or custom integration is needed.

SEO migration and URL redirects

Map important URLs, redirects, metadata and internal links to help reduce broken pages and protect search visibility.

Testing, launch and quality assurance

Test customer journeys, checkout, shipping rules and integrations before launch, with staff training and technical support after go-live.

Plan around your business

Will ERP integration be included?

ERP integration can connect Shopify with stock, finance, purchasing and fulfilment systems, reducing manual updates and helping teams work from consistent data.

We assess your workflows and whether an existing connector, custom integration or Shopify Plus development is needed.

Where can I migrate from?

We can assess moves to Shopify from WooCommerce, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce, Shopware, Salesforce and bespoke platforms. The approach depends on your existing data and functionality, including any specialist tools or custom development needed.

How the Shopify migration process works

We agree what will move, what needs changing and how the new store will be checked before launch.

  1. Audit your current store and plan the migration

    Identify the data, features, integrations and SEO priorities your business depends on, then agree the scope.

  2. Map your data

    Match existing data to Shopify and identify records that need cleaning or restructuring.

  3. Build the Shopify storefront

    Configure the storefront, apps, payments, shipping and tax settings around your business needs.

  4. Migrate data and test the new store

    Check redirects, browsing, account access, checkout, refunds and fulfilment to find issues before they affect live orders.

  5. Launch and monitor your store

    Coordinate the final data transfer and domain change, then check redirects, analytics and store functionality.

Shopify site migration FAQs

Will my store stay open during migration?

Usually, your existing store can continue trading while Shopify is built and tested separately. We plan the final data transfer and launch carefully, agree how any issues will be handled and account for possible disruption.

Can I migrate my store to Shopify by myself?

Yes. Migration tools can help with standard data, while complex stores may need additional work to preserve integrations, custom features and SEO. An agency can coordinate these technical tasks while your team focuses on sales, customers and day-to-day operations.

Should I choose Shopify or Shopify Plus?

The right plan depends on your requirements, not just turnover. Shopify Plus provides additional capabilities for some complex operations, including certain B2B and checkout requirements.
