Migrate to Shopify
We move your PrestaShop store to Shopify with your product combinations, customers, order history and search rankings. Module updates, server maintenance and version upgrades are left behind.
5.0 client ratingPrestaShop data can be pulled from the admin's CSV exports, the Webservice API or directly from the database. We decide which route to use in the audit, based on your version and modules.
PrestaShop's friendly URL pattern adds an ID number to product and category URLs; Shopify doesn't use these numbers. That's why every URL has to be mapped individually. The rows below are examples based on the default pattern.
Both platforms are capable. The difference is who keeps the store running.
| Kriter | PrestaShop | Shopify |
|---|---|---|
| Hosting and security | Your server, your responsibility | Managed by Shopify |
| Version upgrades | Done by hand after testing module compatibility | Automatic, no downtime |
| Variant structure | Combinations | Options and variants |
| Languages and currencies | Built in, with multistore | Built in with Shopify Markets |
| Speed and CDN | Depends on server and cache settings | Global CDN included |
| Extensions | PrestaShop Addons modules | Shopify App Store apps |
Combinations and features are set up differently in every store, so we plan these areas in advance.
We map PrestaShop combinations to Shopify options and variants, with their stock and barcodes.
Product features become metafields that can be used for filtering.
Product names and descriptions in each language move to Shopify's translation structure.
Every product, category and CMS URL with an ID is 301 redirected from a crawled list.
Price and discount groups are rebuilt with customer tags and discount rules.
Shopify Payments, PayPal and the local methods your markets expect.

Losses are kept to a minimum when every old URL is 301 redirected to its Shopify equivalent and meta titles and descriptions are preserved. Because PrestaShop URLs contain IDs, we build the redirect list by crawling your site.
Versions 1.6, 1.7, 8 and 9. Older versions use a different data structure, so we confirm the method in the audit.
Each combination becomes a variant on Shopify, with attributes such as colour and size set up as options. For products with many options, we plan the structure together in advance.
No. For security reasons, passwords can't be read from any platform. Customer records move with their addresses, and after launch your customers receive a planned account activation email to set a new password.
No. The Shopify store is built separately, and your PrestaShop store keeps selling until the domain is switched over.
Based on product and order volume, integrations and design scope. We send a written quote after the audit; we don't publish package prices.
We map your data, URLs and integrations and give you a written plan.
