Magento to Shopify Migration

Magento to Shopify migration, with the ERP and B2B work planned first.

Adobe's new stack means rebuilding the storefront and moving customizations into App Builder. If you are rebuilding anyway, we'll scope the same move to Shopify: ERP and B2B logic behind the API, every old URL redirected, and a launch that starts small before the main store moves.

Custom modules don't move

Magento extensions run inside the platform with full access to core. On Shopify that logic becomes an app, a Function, a metafield model or a connector, so every module needs a decision before the build starts.

ERP and B2B pricing live in the wrong place

Customer-specific prices, stock syncs and cron jobs often sit inside Magento. We move them into a connector behind the API so Shopify upgrades don't touch them.

Every URL changes

Magento's .html suffixes, category paths and store-view URLs all need a mapped 301. Multi-country domains need their redirects planned at the edge as well.

Promotions behave differently

Discount stacking order and discount types don't map one to one. Rebuild the cart rules that matter and test them against real baskets.

The platform reality

On Magento, custom code lives inside the platform. On Shopify, it sits beside it.

A Magento module runs in the same process as core and can change almost anything. That's why an upgrade is only as smooth as the least careful extension in the install, and why ERP pricing plugins and cron jobs resurface on every version bump.

Shopify's core is closed. Custom work attaches through versioned extension points: Functions, UI extensions, metafields and the Admin API. Shopify ships platform updates without you scheduling an upgrade, and moving an app to a new API version is an app update. The store has no upgrade project.

One plan detail to settle early: Functions inside a public App Store app run on any plan, but a custom app built only for your store can use Functions only on Shopify Plus. That decides how some Magento logic gets rebuilt.

Included

What we handle

  • Magento audit across version, extensions, custom modules, store views, integrations, URLs and checkout dependencies
  • Module-by-module decision: Shopify native, public app, Shopify Function, custom app, or retire
  • ERP, PIM and warehouse integration plan, with pricing and stock owned by a connector outside the storefront
  • B2B setup on Shopify: companies, catalogs, price lists, payment terms and buyer accounts where the plan supports them
  • Product, variant, attribute, customer and order-history migration with test imports before the final run
  • SEO URL inventory, redirect CSV, metadata review and Search Console monitoring
  • Shopify theme build or rebuild around the pages that currently convert
  • Staged launch plan: a smaller brand, region or traffic share first, then full cutover

Honest qualification

When we'd tell you to stay

Many consumer and wholesale stores on Magento fit Shopify well, including ones with an ERP behind them. The hard cases are very heavy custom catalog logic and complex quote workflows. Both can be built on Shopify, but the first-year cost rises and the comparison with a well-run Magento upgrade gets close.

We also check every connector before we put it in the plan. A vendor having an API doesn't mean it integrates with Shopify, so we confirm which fields sync, in which direction and how often, before you pay for it.

The starting point is $8,000. Multiple store views or brands, ERP integration, B2B catalogs, large order histories or headless storefronts need a deeper scope.
01

Audit

We inventory the Magento install: modules, extensions, store views, ERP and B2B logic, top landing pages, and the jobs your team runs every day. You get a written list of what moves, what gets rebuilt and what we'd drop.

02

Map

We design the Shopify data model and integration architecture, pick the apps and connectors (and test that they really integrate), and build the redirect map.

03

Build

We set up Shopify, run test migrations, build the storefront and wire the ERP connector, B2B catalogs, promotions and tracking. Then we QA real orders end to end.

04

Launch

We cut over in stages where possible, starting with a smaller store, region or share of traffic, then move the rest once orders, redirects and integrations check out.
