Can you migrate historical orders and customer passwords?

Historical orders yes. Passwords no — no platform can decrypt hashed passwords. We trigger a forced 'reset password' email on first login and word it carefully so it doesn't hurt conversion.

How long does a typical migration take?

Small catalogues (under 500 SKUs): 2–3 weeks. Mid-market (500–5,000 SKUs): 4–6 weeks. Enterprise (5,000+): 8–12 weeks.

Shopify Migration Service

Migrating to Shopify — from Magento, WooCommerce, BigCommerce or a custom platform — is a zero-mistakes operation. One botched 301 map can wipe six months of rankings. We run Shopify migrations with product, customer, order, review and content transfer plus a full redirect matrix and SEO safety net.
