What moves from Squarespace

Squarespace exports products as CSV and blog content as WordPress-format XML; customer and order data are exported separately from the panel. We fill in what the exports don't cover with apps or by hand.

Moves over

  • Physical products, variants and images
  • Product categories, as collections
  • Customer lists
  • Order history
  • Blog posts and images
  • Page titles and SEO descriptions

Stays behind

  • Customer passwords (an activation email is sent)
  • Squarespace template layouts and blocks
  • Some product types (those not included in the export are moved by hand)

Yeniden kurulur

  • Payment and shipping settings
  • Discount codes
  • Member areas and subscriptions
  • Forms and email campaigns

Squarespace URLs and their Shopify equivalents

Squarespace product URLs are built from the shop page name followed by /p/. On Shopify, products live under /products/ and collections under /collections/.

/shop/p/leather-backpack301/products/leather-backpack
/shop?category=Bags301/collections/bags
/blog/leather-bag-care301/blogs/guides/leather-bag-care
/about301/pages/about

The look of your design is kept

Brands that choose Squarespace usually care about visual identity. On Shopify we build a theme that keeps your typography, layout and feel, with sections your team can edit without code.

  • Section-based pages in an Online Store 2.0 theme
  • Large image and video areas
  • Clean product pages that load fast on mobile
  • Your brand colours and typefaces

Squarespace vs Shopify

As sales become a bigger part of your business, tools built for e-commerce matter more.

Questions about moving from Squarespace to Shopify

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Get in touch directly.

How do I move my Squarespace products to Shopify?

Squarespace exports your product list as a CSV. We convert it to Shopify's product format and import it, checking images and variants along the way.

Will my Squarespace blog move over?

Yes. Squarespace exports blog content as WordPress-format XML; we move posts to the Shopify blog with images and meta data and redirect the old URLs.

Will I lose SEO?

Squarespace URLs differ from Shopify's, so each one needs a 301 mapping. With redirects and meta data set up correctly, losses are kept to a minimum.

Will my site look the same?

Squarespace templates can't be moved to Shopify, but we rebuild your design language in a Shopify theme and improve it where it helps.

Do customer passwords move over?

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.

How is the migration priced?

Based on product and order volume, integrations and design scope. We send a written quote after the audit; we don't publish package prices.
