Wix to Shopify migration services

What a complete Wix migration includes

Start with a page inventory

Wix sites often grow by addition: event pages, old promotions and duplicate landing pages accumulate. Before rebuilding, list every page with a decision: rebuild as is, merge with another page, or retire with a redirect.

The inventory keeps the rebuild focused and makes the redirect list straightforward, because every old page has a recorded destination.

Points that often catch Wix sellers out

• Location pricing

  Shopify's guide says prices by location are not supported in migration; prices default to the highest price.

• Weights

  Weights exported in kilograms need converting to grams for Shopify's CSV.

• Wix apps

  Features added through Wix apps need Shopify equivalents, chosen case by case.

Handling Wix contacts carefully

Wix contact exports can include people who never bought anything, such as form enquiries and newsletter sign-ups. Before importing them as Shopify customers, decide who should be included and make sure email marketing consent is recorded accurately, because Shopify's customer import records consent as yes or no.

Shopify's guide notes that customer CSV headers must match its template exactly. We prepare the file accordingly and check a sample of imported customers, including addresses and marketing consent, before the full import.

Rebuilding pages without losing what works

Pages that bring visitors from search or explain your services well should keep their substance, even if their layout changes. We note which Wix pages matter most and rebuild those first, carrying over their wording, headings and images where they still fit, then redirect their old addresses to the new pages.

What you should receive at the end

Timing the switch away from Wix

Choose a quiet trading period for the switch and avoid launching just before a busy season. Orders placed on Wix after the main import need bringing across in a final update, so agree the date when Wix stops taking orders and tell your team. Keep the Wix plan active until Shopify has traded normally and old links have been checked.
