Common problems, and how we solve them

Most Magento to Shopify migrations hit the same few issues. We plan for them before any data moves.

  • Shopify uses a fixed URL structure

    How we solve it: Product and category URLs change (/products/, /collections/). We export your indexed URLs from Google Search Console and map every one to a 301 redirect.

  • Customer passwords can't be transferred

    How we solve it: Magento password hashes don't work in Shopify. We move the accounts and send customers an account activation invite, timed with the launch.

  • Complex products and attributes

    How we solve it: Configurable and bundle products and custom attributes don't map one to one. We map them to Shopify options, variants and metafields, and test them before launch.

  • Custom Magento features

    How we solve it: Extensions and custom code have no direct equivalent. We list every feature you use and replace it with a Shopify app, a custom app or theme code.

FAQ

Questions about Magento to Shopify migration

Do we have to migrate to a new platform?

It depends on your goals and on whether your current stack is still worth maintaining. Most migrations are driven by maintenance costs or security risks. We weigh both and suggest the option that's safe and makes financial sense for you. For many clients, that means staying on their current platform, and we explain exactly why. If that doesn't suit you, we'll propose another option.

Will we lose our search rankings?

Not if the migration is planned around SEO. We export your indexed URLs from Google Search Console, keep or redirect every one, and move robots.txt, sitemaps and analytics.

How is a migration priced?

Every migration is estimated individually. The smallest projects start from $6,000. You get a plan, a timeline and a fixed estimate before any work starts.

Can we migrate only part of the data?

Yes. You can move just orders, customers or products, and leave the rest where it is.
