Field-by-field

Every BigCommerce field has a Shopify home.

We map your data before we move a single record, so nothing lands in the wrong place.

Why switch

Why brands leave BigCommerce for Shopify.

01

Far more apps

Shopify’s App Store is many times larger than BigCommerce’s, so the tool you need usually already exists.

BigCommerce apps

02

Shop Pay checkout

One-tap checkout that millions of shoppers already have saved, built in, with no custom code to maintain.

03

Easier to hire for

Shopify has a far larger pool of developers, designers and agencies, so growth never waits on one specialist.

SEO protection

Your Google rankings come with you.

Every old product, category, blog and page URL gets a permanent (301) redirect to its new Shopify address, so links, bookmarks and search results keep working. Titles, descriptions and image alt text move too.

  • Meta titles & descriptions kept
  • Sitemap resubmitted on launch day

Migration, live

Watch every record land safely.

We move your data with the platforms’ own APIs, then count and check every record on both sides. You get a shared tracker during the move, so you always know what’s done and what’s next.

  • Record-by-record counts, old store vs Shopify
  • Trial run first, final sync on launch day
  • Your store keeps selling the whole time

How it works

Four calm steps, zero surprises.

  1. Week 1

    Audit & map

    We go through your store, apps and custom code, then map every product field, customer and URL to its Shopify home.

  2. Week 1–2

    Build on Shopify

    Theme, apps, shipping, taxes and payments set up to match (or beat) what you have today, on a private store.

  3. Week 2–3

    Test migration

    A full trial run. We compare counts, spot-check orders and place test checkouts before anything goes live.

  4. Launch

    Go live & care

    Final delta sync, DNS switch and redirects in one quiet window, then we watch rankings and orders with you.

FAQ

BigCommerce migration, answered.

Still wondering? Ask us in the form or on WhatsApp.

01What happens to my BigCommerce custom fields and product options?

Custom fields become Shopify metafields and show on your product pages just like before. Options and modifiers map to variants, or to a product-options app where Shopify’s variant limits need it.

02Do you move BigCommerce price lists and customer groups?

Yes. Customer groups become tags or B2B companies, and price lists become Shopify B2B catalogs (on Shopify Plus) or a wholesale app, so every buyer still sees their own prices.

03Will my store go offline while you move it from BigCommerce?

No. Your BigCommerce store keeps selling while we build and test on Shopify. At launch we sync the last orders and customers, then switch the domain in a quiet window, usually in under an hour.

04Will I lose my Google rankings?

We redirect every old product, category and page URL to its new Shopify address (301), carry over meta titles and descriptions, and resubmit your sitemap. Rankings usually hold, and we watch Search Console with you for the first weeks.

05Can my customers log in with their old passwords?

Passwords are encrypted and can’t be copied between platforms. We move every account, then send a friendly, branded invite so customers set a new password in one click.

06How long does a migration take?

Most stores take 2–4 weeks from audit to launch. Very large catalogues, B2B price lists or custom features can take longer; you get a written timeline with your quote.
