Migration acceptance map

Know what moves.
Know how it will be checked.

We agree a data map and test a representative sample before the final transfer. Every unresolved item has an owner and a decision before launch.

What the migration plan needs to account for
Area	Map before transfer	Check in Shopify
Products & variants	Identifiers, options, prices, media and inventory.	Compare counts and inspect complex product examples.
Customers & sign-in	Contact fields, permissions and the new account route.	Validate sample records and customer access; passwords do not transfer.
Historical orders	Supported fields, order references and import method.	Reconcile totals and document unavailable history.
Important URLs	Priority source pages and their destination URLs.	Test the agreed redirects and flag unsupported paths.
Apps & operations	Payments, shipping and connected systems.	Run the agreed shopping and fulfilment scenarios.
Launch handover	Final data changes, domain switch and rollback decision.	Record sign-off, remaining issues and monitoring ownership.

A rehearsal is part of the migration.

The test import exposes missing fields and unexpected behaviour before the store switches platforms. Any data cleanup, redesign or unsupported integration is scoped from those findings.

A migration inventory and exception matrix

An illustrative delivery approach to help you review the scope. This is a planning example, not a client case study.

Products and media	Map identifiers, variants, images, collections and inventory fields.	Reconcile counts and inspect representative complex products.
Customers and orders	Map supported fields; document sign-in, historical-order and subscription exceptions.	Test records and customer access without assuming transferable credentials.
URLs and launch	Map priority URLs; rehearse final sync, redirects and rollback.	Name the go/no-go owner and record the accepted interruption window.

Before you decide

Questions worth asking.

What moves, what does not, and what happens if launch goes wrong?

Migration starts with an agreed data inventory, test import and exception list. Products, customers, historical orders and URLs need separate mapping and validation; not every source feature or credential transfers directly. The starting limits are listed below. Agree the final sync, launch window, rollback conditions and owner before changing the live store.

What about passwords, subscriptions and order history?

Treat them as separate feasibility questions. Customer sign-in may require an account activation or reset path depending on the systems. Subscription continuity depends on providers and permissions. Historical order fields must be tested; do not assume every source field or payment credential can be copied.

Will the store have downtime?

A cutover plan should state any order/content freeze, expected interruption, final sync and rollback point. The actual window depends on the source, integrations and rehearsal results, so it must be agreed after discovery.

What is the starting budget and what is separate?

$2,500 – $6,000 / standard migration. New theme design and transfer-tool fees separate These are published USD prices. The written quote must state the complete cost, payment schedule and applicable taxes.

When can the work begin and what do you need from me?

4–6 weeks after discovery. To scope the work, prepare: Source platform; record volumes; essential apps/features. The schedule starts after the required access, inputs and approvals are ready.

How are revisions, extra work and support agreed?

Use the listed deliverables and exclusions as the starting point. The quote must state acceptance checks, review rounds, payment stages, cancellation arrangements and any ongoing support. Requested additions need an agreed cost and schedule before implementation.
