Migration process
Replatforming from WooCommerce to Shopify in five steps
Plugin & data audit
Full WooCommerce plugin audit, WordPress content inventory, SEO baseline and data check. Output: per plugin a Shopify equivalent or a rebuild decision.
Plugin mapping & strategy
Each WooCommerce plugin mapped to a Shopify-native feature, a Shopify app or a custom Shopify Function. Clear up front what stays and what changes.
Theme build & data migration
Custom Shopify theme, conversion-focused and mobile-first. Data migration of products, customers, orders, subscriptions and reviews. Schema Markup and SEO metadata included.
WordPress blog to Shopify
WordPress blog content migrated to the Shopify blog. URLs preserved via 301 redirects, categories, tags, authors and featured images.
Cutover & monitoring
Dry-run week, freeze window, final data sync, DNS switch and redirect activation. 90 days of GSC monitoring after launch with a dedicated launch engineer.
Migrating WooCommerce is not just a platform switch. It is an operational cleanup. We arrange every layer so your team can focus on growth instead of plugin conflicts.
- 01
Checkout and hosting off your plate
Shopify hosts the store and the checkout itself, with PCI DSS Level 1 and updates rolled out by Shopify. No more plugin conflicts, no security patches breaking your checkout, no WooCommerce updates taking your shop offline.
- 02
Cleaning up the plugin stack
Every plugin gets a destination up front: Shopify-native, an app or custom work. Whatever is duplicate or unused goes. Fewer licences, fewer updates, calmer operations.
- 03
Full data migration
Products with variants, categories, customers, orders, subscriptions (via Shopify Subscriptions), reviews from Judge.me or Yotpo, wishlists and custom fields. No historical data stays behind on WooCommerce.
- 04
WordPress blog to Shopify
WordPress content carried to Shopify with URL preservation via 301 redirects, categories, tags, authors and featured images. Optionally as a headless setup with WordPress as the CMS.
- 05
Full SEO preservation
URL mapping, 301 redirects, Schema Markup migration and 90 days of GSC monitoring after launch. That way every ranking stays in view, also after launch.
- 06
Less maintenance, more calm
No separate hosting, no in-house security patching and no WordPress updates that can break your shop. You pay a Shopify subscription plus the apps you actually use.
- 07
Path to Shopify Plus as you scale
Migrating to a standard Shopify plan is often the first step. We design the migration so the move to Shopify Plus, for checkout extensions or unlimited B2B catalogs, is a plan change rather than a rebuild.

Why businesses move from WooCommerce to Shopify
WooCommerce is a free plugin that turns a WordPress site into an online store. That freedom comes with upkeep: hosting, PHP, WordPress, your theme and every plugin have to stay current and compatible with each other. WooCommerce itself calls updating WordPress, WooCommerce and plugins crucial for a secure store, and places PCI compliance ultimately with the store owner.
Paid Woo extensions also run on a one or two year subscription; once it lapses, updates and support stop. On Shopify, hosting is part of every plan, platform updates roll out automatically and every store is covered by Shopify's PCI DSS Level 1 certification. That difference in upkeep is often what triggers a replatforming.
The second trigger is growth. WooCommerce runs on one base currency per store, and extra currencies and languages need extensions. Shopify handles countries, currencies and languages with Markets and Translate & Adapt, and adds Shop Pay, Shopify POS and, since April 2026, core B2B features on Basic, Grow and Advanced.
WooCommerce vs Shopify: self-managed or fully hosted
Both platforms run serious online stores. The difference lies in who maintains what, and in what comes built in.
| WooCommerce | Shopify | |
|---|---|---|
| Hosting and updates | Your own hosting; you update WordPress, theme and plugins | Hosting included, platform updates automatic |
| Security and PCI | PCI compliance rests with the store owner | Every store covered by PCI DSS Level 1 |
| Checkout | Checkout block or shortcode on your own hosting | Hosted checkout with Shop Pay; checkout step extensions on Plus |
| Variants per product | Variable products built from attributes | Up to 2,048 variants, at most three options |
| Apps and integrations | WordPress plugins; paid Woo extensions by subscription | Shopify App Store plus custom work via the GraphQL Admin API |
| B2B | Through extensions from the Woo Marketplace | Core features from Basic, extended on Plus |
| International | One base currency; currencies and languages via extensions | Markets for countries and currencies, Translate & Adapt for languages |
| Point of sale | POS mode in the Woo app, with WooPayments or Stripe | Shopify POS, inventory and orders shared with your store |
Whatever you built in WooCommerce from plugins gets its own place in the move: a standard feature, an app or custom work. For tailored B2B or your own extensions in checkout, Shopify Plus is the natural next step.
What does a WooCommerce migration to Shopify cost?
The price depends less on the number of products than on what has been built around WooCommerce over the years. These items shape a quote most:
- 01Plugins and extensions that need a replacement: a standard feature, an app or custom work.
- 02Custom code in functions.php or bespoke plugins, such as unusual pricing rules.
- 03Integrations with ERP, accounting or inventory systems.
- 04Active subscriptions from WooCommerce Subscriptions, with stored payment methods.
- 05B2B prices and customer groups that move to company profiles and catalogs.
- 06The amount of WordPress content and the redirects that come with it.
As a guide, a WooCommerce migration starts at 15,000 euros for a premium theme build with data migration and redirects, custom work at 25,000 euros and a migration to Shopify Plus at 35,000 euros. After the audit you get a tailored quote.
Compare running costs too: on WooCommerce that is hosting, extension subscriptions and maintenance hours; on Shopify the plan, payment fees per transaction and any app subscriptions.
WooCommerce migration pitfalls, and how we catch them
Most problems after a move aren't in the data itself, but in details that only surface after launch. These are the points we check up front:
- 01URL patterns. WooCommerce uses /product/ and /product-category/ by default, Shopify the fixed paths /products/ and /collections/. Every old URL gets a 301 redirect, and in Shopify that only works once no page exists at the old address. So we test every rule.
- 02Content from WordPress to Shopify. Articles move under /blogs/, pages under /pages/. Shortcodes are WordPress macros, so we convert them to plain formatting first.
- 03Variations. Shopify supports up to 2,048 variants but at most three options per product. Products with more variation attributes are restructured up front, for example by splitting them or using a metafield.
- 04Customer passwords. They are encrypted and can't be moved; accounts, addresses and order history can. On Shopify, customers sign in with a one-time six-digit code sent by email, so nobody needs a new password.
- 05Subscriptions. Stored payment methods from WooCommerce Subscriptions move through a migration route Shopify supports from Stripe, Braintree and PayPal Express, among others.
- 06Tracking. Pixels from WooCommerce plugins don't carry over by themselves. On Shopify they run through Customer events, including in checkout, and we test every conversion before the DNS switch.
After launch we watch Search Console for 404s, so any missed URL still gets its redirect.
Frequently asked questions about WooCommerce to Shopify migration
WooCommerce works fine until you start growing. After that, plugin conflicts, hosting, security patches and updates take more and more of your team's time. Shopify takes that layer over: hosting, PCI compliance and platform updates are part of your subscription, and apps or Shopify features replace most of your plugins.
An average WooCommerce to Shopify migration takes 6 to 10 weeks. For a DTC brand with a standard plugin stack that is 6 to 8 weeks, including data migration, theme build and redirect strategy. The schedule mostly depends on what has been built around WooCommerce: the number of plugins that need a replacement, active subscriptions from WooCommerce Subscriptions and the amount of WordPress content that has to move. A migration to Shopify Plus takes 10 to 14 weeks.
A WooCommerce to Shopify migration starts at 15,000 euros for a premium theme build with data migration and redirects. Custom starts at 25,000 euros. Migration to Shopify Plus starts at 35,000 euros. After the audit you get a tailored quote.
Products with their variations and attributes, product categories and tags, customers with their addresses, full order history, images from the WordPress media library and SEO data such as meta titles, descriptions and URLs. Reviews (native WooCommerce, Judge.me or Yotpo), wishlist data, subscriptions via Shopify Subscriptions and your WordPress blog come along too. Customer passwords don't, because they are encrypted; on Shopify, customers sign in with a one-time code sent by email.
Yes, provided the redirects are right. WooCommerce puts products under /product/ and categories under /product-category/ by default, while Shopify uses the fixed paths /products/ and /collections/. We map every old URL to its new address and turn that into 301 redirects, including WordPress pages (under /pages/ on Shopify) and blog posts (under /blogs/). Meta titles, descriptions, canonicals and Schema Markup come along, and after launch we monitor Search Console for 90 days.
Each plugin gets a mapping: replace with Shopify-native, replace with a Shopify app, or rebuild. Subscriptions becomes Shopify Subscriptions, bookings becomes a booking app, custom forms become Shopify forms.
WordPress blog content is migrated to the Shopify blog with URLs preserved (via 301 redirects), categories, tags, author attribution and featured images. Optionally we can keep WordPress as a headless CMS and migrate only the commerce layer.
On WooCommerce, checkout speed depends on your hosting, your theme and your plugins. Shopify Checkout runs entirely on Shopify's platform: hosting, security (PCI DSS Level 1) and updates sit with Shopify, and customers with a Shop account pay with Shop Pay. What that means for your conversion, we measure after launch in your own data.
