How our Shopware to Shopify migration works
We review your Shopware store: catalogue, customers, orders, extensions, integrations, URLs and SEO. You get a clear scope, a schedule and a list of what moves 1:1 and what needs a Shopify equivalent.
We map Shopware products, variants, properties, categories, manufacturers, customer groups, sales channels and shopping-experience pages to Shopify products, variants, metafields, collections, markets and pages.
We build the store on a custom theme, Hydrogen or a headless front-end, then set up apps, payments, shipping, taxes and integrations such as ERP, PIM or marketing tools.
We run test migrations on a staging store and check products, prices, stock, customers and orders against the source data, so errors are fixed before launch, not after.
Every old product, category and content URL gets a 301 redirect to its new Shopify address. We carry over meta titles, descriptions and image alt texts, add structured data and submit the new sitemap to Google Search Console.
We sync the latest orders and customers, switch the domain with minimal downtime and monitor sales, tracking and search traffic closely in the first weeks after launch.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a Shopware to Shopify migration take?
It depends on catalogue size, number of integrations and design scope. After the free audit you get a fixed schedule broken down into stages, so you know the launch date before the work starts.
Will I lose my Google rankings?
Not if the migration is done properly. We map every old URL to its new address with 301 redirects, keep meta data and content, and monitor Google Search Console after launch to catch and fix any issues quickly.
Can customer accounts and order history be moved?
Yes. Customers, addresses and order history are migrated. For security reasons passwords can't be transferred between platforms, so customers receive an invitation to activate their account on the new store.
What happens to my Shopware plugins?
Shopware plugins don't move to Shopify. We replace each one with a Shopify app, a built-in feature or a custom app, and reconnect ERP, payment and logistics integrations.
Can you migrate a multi-language, multi-country Shopware store?
Yes. Shopware sales channels and languages are mapped to Shopify Markets with translated content, local currencies and domains or subfolders, plus hreflang so each country keeps its search visibility.
