What moves
Everything the business runs on.
Products & catalog
Products, variants, options, images, metafields, categories rebuilt as collections, hidden and sold-out states preserved, prices verified against the live storefront.
Customers
Accounts, addresses, phone numbers in checkout-ready format, tags, join dates and marketing consent carried over exactly. Duplicates merged and reported.
Order history
Every order with its original number and date, line items linked to migrated variants, refunds, store credit and discounts modeled as real transactions.
Fulfillments & tracking
One fulfillment per parcel, so split shipments keep every carrier reference. Old eras without shipment rows are fulfilled from the shipped date.
Reviews & content
Product reviews with dates and status, pages, blogs and media rehosted from old CDNs before the old infrastructure goes dark.
SEO & redirects
A 301 map built from the real URL inventory, verified one by one against the live domain, with 404 capture running from the first minute after launch.
The audit
Automated engines copy. We reconcile.
Migration apps read what an API exposes and report a percentage. We compare the result to what the business actually does, fix what is safely fixable, and list what needs your decision.
- Reconciled to zeroEvery source row is accounted for in a ledger that runs from the export count down to the live count. Demo accounts, duplicates and invalid records are named, not hidden.
- Priced from the live storefrontOption-set and modifier pricing that never appears in any export or API is captured from the store customers actually buy from, then written to each variant.
- Orders as real transactionsRefunds, partial refunds, store credit, declined payments and split shipments are modeled as transactions, so no order shows a phantom balance.
- Every tracking numberOne fulfillment per parcel, so multi-shipment orders keep each carrier reference. Automated tools drop these.
- Consent preserved exactlyMarketing opt-ins carry over one-to-one. Nobody is subscribed who did not ask, and nobody who asked is lost.

The process
Eight steps, two sign-offs, one fixed price.
Audit and fixed quote
We read the real exports and APIs, find what the automated tools would miss, and quote a fixed price with dated phases.
Development store
As a Shopify Select Partner we build in a free development store. You pay Shopify nothing until the day you go live.
Sample and sign-off
Twenty of each entity, chosen to be difficult. You inspect them in your admin and give the green light.
Full migration
Products, customers, orders, fulfillments, then redirects. Resumable, idempotent, silent.
Storefront build
Designed as a working prototype first, then built on Horizon with as few custom files as possible.
Verification and report
Every claim in the report is checked against a real record in your store. Then it is yours to keep.
Cutover and hypercare
DNS, delta sync, 301 verification, 404 capture from day one, and a month of watching the numbers.
Questions
The ones every migration starts with.
Which platforms do you migrate from?
BigCommerce, Magento 1 and 2, Adobe Commerce, WooCommerce and other WordPress stores, OpenCart, PrestaShop, Wix, Shift4Shop, Weebly and Square Online, and custom-built systems. If it has an export or an API, we can audit it.
How long does a migration take?
A standard Shopify migration runs 8 to 12 weeks. Shopify Plus replatforming from Magento or a custom build typically takes 3 to 6 months. Large order histories run for days on their own; we schedule them around your trading calendar.
What do you charge?
A fixed price, quoted after the survey and audit. Standard terms are 50% to begin and 50% when the store goes live and you sign off. Because we build in a Shopify development store, you pay Shopify nothing until launch.
Will customers get emails during the import?
No. Every import runs with notifications disabled and inventory bypassed. We also brief you on the two customer-facing surfaces that sit outside those flags, the Shop app and expired order-status links, so nothing surprises you.
What happens to our SEO?
We build the redirect map from the real URL inventory, including nested categories and legacy platform paths, verify every redirect against the live domain, and capture 404s from the first minute after launch so anything missed is fixed within days.
Do you migrate order history?
Yes, in full, with refunds, store credit, discounts and per-parcel tracking numbers modeled as real transactions and fulfillments. Old orders keep their original numbers and dates.
