MagniGeeks migrates stores from Shopify to WooCommerce with a written migration plan, a full rehearsal on staging, URL-by-URL redirects, and a rollback option until you are satisfied. Products, variants, images, customers, order history, discount codes, reviews and SEO data all move. Saved card details do not, and we tell you that up front rather than after launch.
Honest answer: not every store should. Shopify is a good product for stores that fit its model. The businesses that gain from moving to WooCommerce are usually the ones paying for several apps to work around Shopify's limits, paying transaction fees on a third-party gateway, needing checkout or pricing behaviour Shopify does not allow, or wanting to own their data and code outright. If your store is simple and Shopify is not in your way, we will say so on the call. We would rather lose a migration project than deliver one you regret.
| Data | Moves? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Products, variants, images, collections | Yes | Collections become categories or tags; Shopify's option structure is mapped to WooCommerce attributes. |
| Customers | Yes | Names, emails, addresses, tags. Passwords cannot be exported from Shopify, so customers set a new one on first login. |
| Order history | Yes | Imported with status, line items and totals so customer accounts and reports stay complete. |
| Discount codes | Yes | Recreated as WooCommerce coupons. Complex automatic discounts may need custom logic. |
| Reviews | Yes | From the review app you use, where it allows export. |
| SEO titles, descriptions, URLs | Yes | Metadata imported; every old URL redirected to its new one. |
| Saved payment cards | No | Card tokens stay with Shopify Payments. Customers re-enter card details on their next order. |
| Subscriptions | Partly | Subscription records can be recreated, but active billing agreements usually have to be re-authorized by the customer. We plan this with you. |
| Theme | No | Shopify themes are Liquid; WooCommerce themes are PHP. The design is rebuilt, which is a chance to fix what was wrong with it. |
| Apps | No | Each app is replaced with a WooCommerce plugin or custom code. We map these before quoting. |
Migration services move data. They do not build the WooCommerce features that replaced your Shopify apps, and that is where migrations go wrong. We are primarily a plugin and WooCommerce development team, so the custom pricing rule, the B2B ordering flow or the integration your Shopify app handled gets built properly by the same people doing the migration. Our public plugins, WP Responsive Menu and RestroPress, have been on wordpress.org since 2014 and 2018, so the code we leave you with is the kind we maintain ourselves.
Not if the redirects are complete and the new pages keep the same content and metadata. Some movement in the first weeks is normal. Losing rankings permanently is nearly always a redirect map with gaps, which is why ours is tested URL by URL before cutover.
A store with a few hundred products and no custom apps can be done in a few weeks. Stores with tens of thousands of products, subscriptions or many apps take longer because each app becomes a small development project. The audit gives you a real timeline.
Yes. Shopify stays live until cutover, and the final delta import brings across orders placed in between. Downtime at cutover is minutes, not hours.
Those stay with Shopify. Keep the Shopify account open until pending payouts clear and the chargeback window on your last orders has passed. We include this in the plan.
Yes. The process is the same; the export tooling differs. Ask.

We had a complex migration project—moving our outdated RightPress Subscriptio setup to WooCommerce Subscriptions—and it came with a fair share of unexpected technical challenges. Nirmal approached every obstacle with creativity and determination, always finding smart workarounds that kept the project on track.

Nirmal has provided an excellent service, and was very patient when we were unable to contact our Hosting supplier. He provided all the information we asked for and was very helpful and thorough. Highly recommended.
