Frequently Asked Questions about WooCommerce Migration

What does the migration from WooCommerce to Shopify cost?

The costs depend on the size of your shop, the number of products, and the complexity of your setup. After a free initial consultation, we provide you with a binding fixed-price offer. This way, you know from the start what to expect, without hidden costs or surprises.

How long does the migration take?

Most migrations are completed within 3 weeks. For larger shops with many products, complex plugin setups, or special integrations, it can take 4-5 weeks. After the analysis, you receive a binding timeline with all milestones.

Does my WooCommerce shop need to go offline during migration?

No, your shop stays online and operational throughout the entire migration. We build the new Shopify shop in parallel and only perform the switch at the very end. The actual changeover takes only a few minutes, so you don't lose any revenue.

Will my SEO rankings be preserved after the migration?

Yes, preserving your rankings is our top priority. We document all existing URLs, create a complete redirect map, and implement clean 301 redirects. We also transfer all meta data like title tags and descriptions. With a properly executed migration, we often see ranking improvements due to Shopify's better performance.

What happens to my WooCommerce plugins?

We analyze all your active plugins and their functions before migration. For most, there are corresponding Shopify apps that we set up for you. If a plugin has a special function with no suitable app available, we develop a custom solution or advise you on alternatives.

Typical Challenges in WooCommerce to Shopify Migration

Every WooCommerce installation is different. The combination of WordPress plugins, custom fields, and individual customizations makes each migration unique. Here are the most common pitfalls we solve in WooCommerce migrations.

Customer passwords cannot be migrated

WooCommerce stores passwords with WordPress-specific encryption. These hashes are not compatible with Shopify.

We set up automatic email flows that prompt customers to reset their password on first login. This keeps the customer experience smooth.

Variable products with many attributes

WooCommerce allows unlimited product variants. Shopify has a limit of 100 variants per product and maximum 3 options.

We develop alternative structures with metafields and custom product pages or use apps like Infinite Options for complex variants.

WooCommerce Subscriptions and Membership plugins

Plugins like WooCommerce Subscriptions store active subscriptions, payment intervals, and customer agreements.

We carefully migrate to Shopify subscription apps like Recharge or Loop – without interrupting running subscriptions.

Custom Post Types and Advanced Custom Fields

Many shops use ACF or Custom Post Types for additional product information outside the standard structure.

We export all fields and map them to Shopify Metafields so no product information is lost.
