Migration

Magento to BigCommerce, without starting over.

Keep the flexibility you built on Magento, without running the servers. We move your store to BigCommerce and redirect every old URL.

Moving from Magento to BigCommerce.

BigCommerce is a common landing spot for Magento stores that want a hosted platform but still need complex catalogues, B2B features and a checkout they can customise. More of a Magento build carries over here than it would on Shopify.

Your whole store, not just the products.

An export file moves your catalogue. A migration moves the store: the data, the design, and the links that bring customers in.

Products and variants

Titles, descriptions, options, SKUs, prices, images and stock, restructured where the new platform models products differently.

Collections and categories

Your catalogue structure and sort order, with filters rebuilt where the new platform supports them.

Customers

Names, addresses and marketing consent. Passwords cannot move between platforms, so we plan how customers set a new one.

Order history

Past orders come with you, so customers still see them in their accounts and your sales history stays in one place.

Content

Pages, blog posts, navigation and media, moved and laid out in the new theme.

SEO and redirects

Meta titles, descriptions, alt text and a 301 redirect for every old URL, so rankings and links carry over.

Magento on the left. BigCommerce on the right.

The platforms do not model a store the same way, so every part of your Magento store gets a planned home in BigCommerce.

Your design comes with you. Checkout depends on where you land.

We rebuild your storefront on the new platform, page for page. Checkout is the one place each platform sets its own rules, so here is what each one allows.

BigCommerce

Customisable

Checkout can be styled to match your store, and BigCommerce publishes its checkout code, so a custom checkout can be built on top of it when styling alone is not enough.

Shopify

Branding

Every plan lets you brand checkout: logo, colours, fonts and layout options. Adding custom blocks or fields needs Shopify Plus, and even then it goes through Shopify’s checkout extensions, not your own checkout code.

WooCommerce

Full control

Checkout is part of your own WordPress site, so its layout, fields and styling can be matched to your current checkout closely. You also take on hosting and updates.

Your quote lists what can and cannot carry over to your new checkout, before you commit.

Keep your links. Keep your rankings.

Changing platforms usually changes your URLs. Every one that changes needs a redirect, or the rankings and links behind it are lost.

  • A full inventory of every URL on your current store, from your sitemap and a crawl
  • One-to-one 301 redirects to the matching new page, not a blanket redirect to the homepage
  • Meta titles, descriptions, alt text and structured data carried over
  • Your new sitemap submitted to Google Search Console at launch
  • A crawl after launch to catch and fix any broken links

No one can promise rankings. A complete redirect map is how you avoid losing them.

Your store keeps trading the whole time.

    Launch, then check

    A final sync picks up new orders and customers, redirects go live and your domain switches over. Then we crawl the new store to catch anything broken.

Migration questions, answered.

Something else on your mind? Ask us.

Do customer groups and pricing move?+

Customer groups move to BigCommerce customer groups. Group pricing and price lists are mapped during the audit, since it depends on your BigCommerce plan.

Can I keep my Magento URL structure?+

BigCommerce lets you set custom URLs, so paths can often stay close to what you have, minus the .html. Every URL that changes gets a 301 redirect.

Will I lose my Google rankings?+

Not if the redirects are done properly. We list every URL on your current store, map each one to its new address and set up 301 redirects before launch. No one can promise rankings, but a complete redirect map is how you avoid losing them.

Can my new checkout look like my old one?+

It depends on where you are moving. WooCommerce gives full control, BigCommerce can be customised closely, and Shopify allows branding on every plan with deeper changes on Shopify Plus. We tell you exactly what carries over before you commit.

Will my store go offline during the move?+

No. Your current store keeps trading while we build the new one. Just before launch we sync any new orders and customers, then switch your domain over.

Do customers need new passwords?+

Usually, yes. Platforms store passwords in a way that cannot be moved, so customer accounts come across without them and customers set a new one on their next sign-in. We help you plan the email that tells them.

Can you move order history?+

Yes. Past orders move across, so customers can still see them in their accounts and your sales history stays in one place.

What about subscriptions, saved cards and gift cards?+

These depend on your payment provider and apps, so we scope them separately. Some move directly, some need your payment provider’s help, and some have to be restarted. You will know which before you commit.

How long does a migration take?+

It depends on the size of your catalogue, your order history and the apps you use. Your quote includes a timeline.

How much does it cost?+

Migrations start from $2,000 one-time. The final price depends on catalogue size, order history, apps and checkout work, and is fixed in your quote before we start.

Which platforms do you migrate between?+

We move stores from Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, Wix, Squarespace, WordPress and Webflow, onto Shopify, BigCommerce or WooCommerce. If your platform is not listed, ask us.
