WooCommerce and Magento to Shopify
We move your store to Shopify, with your products, customers and order history, and redirect every old address so search engines and returning customers can still find you.
Why stores move to Shopify
WooCommerce and Magento are both capable platforms, but they leave the hosting, security and updates to you. On WooCommerce, every plugin that touches checkout, shipping or payments needs keeping up to date, and one bad update can stop orders coming in. On Magento, upgrades can be large projects in their own right, so many stores put them off for years.
Shopify takes care of hosting and the platform's security itself, which means your team spends less time on the store's plumbing and more on selling.
Move your store without losing your customers.
We’ll look at your products, integrations and search traffic, then come back with a fixed quote and a timeline for the move.
What moves across
A store is more than its product list. Here’s what comes across from WooCommerce or Magento, and how each part is handled on the way to Shopify.
Titles, descriptions, prices, SKUs, images, variants and stock levels.
How a store migration works
The steps are the same as on every migration, with a few extra checks because real orders are involved.
Payments. We set up Shopify Payments or connect your existing provider, such as Stripe.
Test orders. Before launch we place test orders to check payments, shipping rates, taxes and confirmation emails.
Launch timing. We switch over outside your busiest trading hours.
Selling abroad. If you sell in more than one country, we can set up multi-currency pricing and translated storefronts as part of the move.
After launch. The first six weeks are included, while we check rankings, orders and anything that didn’t come across cleanly. Shopify handles hosting and platform security, so ongoing maintenance covers the rest.
No. Their accounts and addresses move across, but they’ll need to set a new password, because passwords can’t be transferred between platforms. They’ll get an email invitation to do that.
Almost every address changes when you move to Shopify, which is why every product, collection and page is mapped and redirected before launch. Some movement in the first few weeks is normal, but a page that ranks today shouldn’t disappear because of the move.
Yes. Your domain stays yours and points to the new store when it launches.
Yes. We’re certified Shopify Partners and handle migrations to both Shopify and Shopify Plus.
Shopify has a monthly fee, while WooCommerce’s costs come from hosting, plugins and developer time. We’ll compare the two for your store when we quote.
It depends on how many products, customers and integrations you have, so you’ll get a timeline with your quote. A typical store takes about a month, but that varies a lot with the size of the migration and whether you’re having a redesign at the same time.
