Shopify Migrations
Moving to Shopify with confidence and continuity
A platform migration is a business-critical change that, handled right, unlocks growth.
For established eCommerce businesses, moving to Shopify is rarely about starting again. It's about improving flexibility, performance and manageability without losing momentum, data or search visibility.
We help businesses transition to Shopify in a controlled, low-risk way. We ensure the platform supports how you trade today while building a stronger foundation for the future.
When a Shopify migration
becomes the right move
Businesses typically consider migrating to Shopify when existing platforms begin to impose limits.
This may include:
Increasing maintenance or development overhead
Difficulty making changes quickly or safely
Performance or stability issues during peak trading
Limitations in supporting new markets, models or integrations
At this stage, migration decisions carry real commercial risk. The priority is continuity – improvement follows.
Common platforms
businesses migrate from
Shopify is often chosen as a replacement for platforms that have become difficult to evolve.
We regularly support migrations from:
WooCommerce
Magento
BigCommerce
Bespoke or custom-built platforms
Each starting point brings different constraints. Our approach is shaped around your existing platform, data structure and trading needs – not a fixed template.
Protecting what matters
during migration
A successful migration preserves the value already built into the business.
That includes:
Product data, inventory and catalogue structure
Customer accounts and order history
Content, navigation and on-site structure
SEO equity built up over time
Migration planning focuses on ensuring critical data and structure are carried forward cleanly, without unnecessary loss or disruption.
Maintaining SEO and
trading continuity
Search visibility and trading performance cannot be afterthoughts.
Shopify migrations are planned to protect SEO by maintaining URL structure where possible and ensuring changes are deliberate and controlled. Where changes are required, they are handled carefully to avoid unnecessary traffic loss.
A phased approach is often used to minimise disruption, keeping change to what is necessary and sequencing work to protect day-to-day trading.
How we approach
Shopify migrations
We start by understanding how the business trades and what cannot afford to break.
Migration planning considers:
Commercial priorities and peak trading periods
Data dependencies and integrations
Internal workflows and operational impact
Opportunities to simplify without destabilising
We migrate platforms safely, paving the way for improvement once you're stable on Shopify.
