Magento to Shopify Migration Services for Australian Stores

Products, variants, customers, orders, redirects, SEO settings, and app workflows scoped, migrated, and validated. Fixed-price scope, careful testing, and a cutover plan your team can actually work with.
Three stages. No surprises. Your live Magento data stays untouched until cutover — delivered personally by the founder.
1
Week 0
Discovery & Mapping
15-minute scoping call. We map your Magento 1 or Magento 2 store, the catalogue, extension list, URL redirect map, and ERP or B2B integrations that must translate to Shopify Plus or Shopify and the cleanup decisions to make on the way. Fixed-price quote inside 48 hours.
2
Weeks 1–N
Sandbox Migration & Parallel-Run
Full migration run in a sandbox Shopify org first. Both systems then run in parallel for two weeks — every transaction, contact, balance and report cross-checked against the source. No risk to live operations.
3
Cutover
Go-Live & Handover
Production cutover on a planned window — typically a weekend. Team training, monitoring active, 30 days post-launch support. Magento safely retired with full history preserved.
Before → After
Magento → Shopify: what actually moves
Every migration project starts from a set of concrete data on the source platform and ends with the same data — cleaned and validated — on the target. Here is the shape of that move.
Today
Magento
Where your data lives today, in Magento.
Chart of accounts, tax codes and tracking dimensions
Contacts, customers and suppliers (with duplicates)
Historical transactions, invoices, bills and reconciliations
Payroll data, leave balances and STP history
Connected integrations (CRM, ecom, payroll, ops)
Custom reports and dashboards that finance depends on
After migration
Shopify
The same data, cleaned and validated, in Shopify — ready for day one.
Chart of accounts restructured to fit reporting needs
Deduplicated contacts, ready to use
Full transaction history with references intact
Payroll continuity through cutover, STP unbroken
Integrations reconnected, working from day one
Reports rebuilt to match — same numbers, same periods
What We Migrate
Magento to Shopify migration services, what is included
Every Magento to Shopify migration is different, but here is what our Magento 2 to Shopify migration typically covers across catalogue, customers, SEO, extensions, and B2B or ERP rebuild.
Feature
Product and catalogue migration
Products, variants, sizes, colours, images, descriptions, prices and inventory levels — all migrated to Shopify with URLs and SEO metadata preserved.
Collections, categories and tags are mapped so your store structure stays logical.
Customer and order history
Customer accounts, addresses, order history, wish lists and loyalty data — transferred so returning customers see their full history.
Guest orders are migrated as records for reporting and remarketing.
SEO preservation and redirects
301 redirects for every product, collection and page URL so search rankings transfer cleanly. Meta titles, descriptions and canonical tags are migrated.
We validate that Google Search Console shows no 404 spike after launch.
Payment and shipping setup
Payment gateways, shipping rules, tax configurations and fulfilment integrations — rebuilt on Shopify and tested before launch.
If you use Xero, MYOB or a 3PL, those connections are re-established.
Design and theme migration
Your store design is rebuilt or adapted on Shopify. We match the look and feel while taking advantage of the new platform features.
Mobile responsiveness, performance and conversion-focused layouts are a priority.
Pricing
How we price Magento to Shopify migration services
Price moves with product and variant volume, redirects, theme or app rebuilds, extension replacement, connected systems, and how tight the cutover window is. Here is how we scope it.
01
Migration audit call
Tell us what you are running in Magento, what must survive in Shopify, and which catalog, SEO, or app behaviours cannot break. We will tell you whether it fits one fixed-price migration or needs phased delivery.
02
Fixed-price migration scope
Once catalog size, extension dependencies, SEO rules, and cutover risk are clear, you get fixed-price scope covering cleansing, migration, validation, and go-live. No open-ended estimates.
03
Phase catalog, history, and integrations separately
If the move includes heavy catalog work, extension replacement, or connected systems, we can split it into core store data first, then history, then integrations. Each phase has its own price and sign-off.

Case Study
Case Study
Multi-entity accounting migration that finished ahead of BAS deadline
A Perth-based services group with 60+ staff moved off their legacy accounting stack to a modern cloud platform, taking multiple entities across in one coordinated cut. Chart of accounts consolidated, payroll continuity preserved through cutover, and BAS lodgement continued on time.
We had been putting off the switch for over a year. They made it painless — scoped it clearly, migrated everything, and our team was up and running in Shopify within weeks. The data was cleaner than it had been in years.

FAQs
Common questions about Magento to Shopify migration and conversion
01How much do your Magento to Shopify migration services cost?
It depends on catalogue size, extension count, B2B or ERP rebuild scope, and how much order history moves. Every Magento to Shopify migration is scoped up front and quoted at a fixed price before work starts. No hourly billing. Book a scoping call and we will size it against your Magento 1 or Magento 2 store.
02How long does a Magento to Shopify migration take?
About 3 to 6 weeks for a standard Magento 2 to Shopify migration. Adobe Commerce with B2B, PWA, or ERP integration rebuilds can push it to 8 to 12. We commit to a realistic date during scoping, not a best-case one.
03Do you handle Magento 1 to Shopify migration as well as Magento 2?
Yes. Magento 1 (M1), Magento 2 (M2), Magento Open Source, and Adobe Commerce all move to Shopify or Shopify Plus. Legacy M1 stores get a database extract into a staging area first, then loaded into Shopify with URL redirects preserved.
04Will we lose products, orders, or SEO equity in the switch?
No. Products (simple, configurable, virtual, bundle), variants, customers, orders, invoices, credit memos, and SEO metadata all migrate. We put 301 redirects on every product, category, and CMS URL so search rankings carry across.
05Can our store keep taking orders during the migration?
Yes. Magento keeps trading right up to cutover weekend. We run Shopify in parallel for validation, then cut DNS on a low-traffic window.
06What happens to Magento extensions on the Shopify side?
Every extension maps to a Shopify app, Shopify Function, or custom app build. We audit the extension list up front, propose Shopify equivalents, and build bespoke apps where nothing off-the-shelf fits.
07Do you handle ERP or B2B integrations after the switch?
Yes. NetSuite, Dynamics 365, SAP, EDI, and Xero or MYOB connections all get rebuilt on Shopify. B2B company accounts, tiered pricing, and quote workflows carry into Shopify Plus B2B.
08Is our store data secure during the migration?
Yes. An Australian team handles the migration on encrypted connections. Credentials are never stored in plain text and the Magento source data stays read-only through the whole project.
09Do you only work with Perth businesses?
No. We are Perth-based but deliver Australia-wide. Roughly half our Magento to Shopify migration work is for Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane stores. Remote delivery is standard.
Send us your Magento version, catalogue size, extension list, B2B or ERP concerns, and target Shopify plan. Our Magento to Shopify migration services team will reply with a clear plan and a fixed-price scope for the move.
