Migrate to Shopify Plus
.avif)
Most platform migrations happen for one of three reasons: your current system can't keep up with your growth, your dev costs are spiralling because the platform fights you at every turn, or you're paying enterprise fees for a tool your team barely uses.
Shopify Plus fixes these problems. It handles traffic spikes without custom infrastructure. It ships with native checkout, payments, and fulfilment integrations. And it gives your team the tools to move fast without calling a developer for every content change.
But a migration done badly can cost you months of revenue and years of SEO equity. That's where the engineering matters.
We've migrated brands from WooCommerce, Magento 2, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and custom-built platforms. Every migration follows the same engineering-first process.
Platform audit and data mapping
Before we touch anything, we audit your current platform end to end. Product data, customer records, order history, URL structures, metadata, redirects, third-party integrations, custom functionality. We map every piece of data to its Shopify Plus equivalent and flag anything that needs custom handling.
SEO preservation
This is where most agencies drop the ball. We build comprehensive 301 redirect maps covering every indexed URL. We migrate your metadata, canonical tags, structured data, and sitemap structure. We monitor Search Console through the transition and fix crawl issues in real time. Your rankings shouldn't dip - and if we've done our job right, they'll improve.
Design and UX continuity
You can keep your existing look and feel or use the migration as an opportunity to redesign. Either way, we ensure the experience your customers know doesn't break. Navigation, checkout flow, account functionality, loyalty integrations - everything carries across.
Integration architecture
Your ERP, 3PL, email platform, reviews, loyalty program - they all need to talk to Shopify Plus. We architect clean integrations using Shopify's APIs and middleware where needed, not brittle app-store plugins that break on the next update.
Testing and launch
We run parallel environments so you can validate everything before the DNS switch. Orders, fulfilment, payments, edge cases - all tested. When we flip the switch, your customers shouldn't notice anything changed. Except that everything works better.
We've handled migrations from WooCommerce, Magento 1 and 2, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Shopify Basic (upgrading to Plus), commercetools, custom-built platforms, and legacy systems. If it has a database, we can get your data out of it.
We're not a migration factory. We don't run your data through a CSV importer and call it done. Every migration is engineered specifically for your business - your data model, your integrations, your customer experience. We've been doing this for over 14 years and we treat every migration as if our own revenue depended on it. Because in a way, it does.
How long does a Shopify Plus migration take?
Typically 8 to 16 weeks depending on complexity. A straightforward WooCommerce migration with clean data sits at the shorter end. A Magento 2 instance with custom ERP integrations, multiple storefronts, and years of customer data sits at the longer end. We'll scope it properly before quoting a timeline.
Will I lose my Google rankings during the migration?
Not if it's done properly. We build complete 301 redirect maps, migrate all metadata, and monitor Search Console through the transition. Minor fluctuations are normal in the first few weeks, but rankings should stabilise and improve within 4 to 6 weeks post-launch.
Can you migrate my customer accounts and order history?
Yes. We migrate customer records, order history, addresses, and account data. Customers will need to reset their passwords due to security hashing differences between platforms, but we handle the communication and flow for that.
Do I need to redesign my site during the migration?
No. We can replicate your existing design on Shopify Plus or use the migration as an opportunity to redesign. Many brands choose to do both - migrate the core experience first, then iterate on design improvements post-launch.
What about my third-party integrations?
We audit every integration as part of the migration planning. Most modern tools (Klaviyo, Gorgias, Yotpo, ShipStation, NetSuite, etc.) have native Shopify Plus connectors. For anything custom, we build proper API integrations.
