  5. 6 How to Migrate from WooCommerce to Shopify Automatedly? In a case, you've decided to perform WooCommerce to Shopify migration, Cart2Cart will lend you a helping hand. The process of data transfer is fully automated, so you don't need to possess deep coding skills. The time of migration depends on the quantity of data entities you wish to move. All you have to do is to follow an easy step-by-step instruction. Prepare Your WooCommerce Store To do so, we advise you to follow these steps: Perform your current store's audit to get rid of all the outdated and unnecessary data (e.g., product details, categories, passwords, orders, reviews, etc.) Please note that Cart2Cart doesn't delete any files from your WooCommerce store, but it is highly advisable to backup all the content to any of the external devices. Ensure your future Shopify plan provides enough capacity to store all the products you are planning to move. Calculate the exact price of WooCommerce to Shopify migration with the help of free Cart2Cart's Migration Estimator.

  6. 7 Set up Source and Target Stores Select WooCommerce as a Source cart from the pop-up menu and enter the store's URL. After that, install a Connection Bridge. To perform that, download a file to your computer and unpack it from the zip archive. Then paste it to store root directory. Choose Shopify as your Target cart and install the "Migration for Shopify" app.

  7. 8 Decide on the Data Entities At this point, you will be able to choose entities, which you wish to transfer to the Shopify store. You will also be able to select additional options.

  8. 9 We recommend our clients to pay attention to the following additional migration options that would ease the process of store switch: Migrate Source Store customer groups into customer tags Migrate Source Store categories into Shopify Automated Collections Preserve order IDs on Target Store Create 301 redirects on your target store after migration Migrate categories and products SEO URLs Please note: Shopping carts usually organize store entities differently. Thus, products are organized into collections with particular tags (Shopify categories and subcategories). Also, in its stores' URLs, Shopify puts collection instead of category, adds word "product" to each product page, and changes dots into dashes at the end of the links. When migrating Customers to Shopify, Cart2Cart will automatically establish a new default "unknown" Shopify email adress if the customer's email on the Source cart is incorrect. The same will happen during the migration of Orders (in case they are not linked to particular customers, and were created in the guest mode.

  11. 12 How to Migrate WooCommerce Products Sometimes it is necessary to migrate the WooCommerce products only. Thus, there are a few options for that: Download any of the available WP product migration plugins. Import WooCommerce products using a CSV file and than export them into Shopify store. Use an automated migration tool Cart2Cart that will help you migrate the necessary data effortlessly.

  12. 13 How to Export Orders from WooCommerce WooCommerce platform doesn't have the necessary functionality to export orders manually, but there are lots of apps available that will help you cope with the task. Alternatively, you may run an automated migration with Cart2Cart and tick only the "Orders" box while configuring the transfer. The tool will move the data with no extra effort needed.

  13. 14 Post-Migration Tips & Tricks Once the Full Migration is completed, please consider the following: Check the performance of the store - the frontend, links, categories, etc. Also, try to make a test purchase to check if everything works properly. Install the theme and all the necessary apps from the marketplace. Invite your customers to reactivate their accounts. As an alternative, you may use the paid app "Bulk Account Invite Sender". It will automatically send the invitation to all your clients. Keep in mind that Shopify perceives each transferred order as the newly-made. Thus, you will receive multiple notifications concerning the creation of orders (which are actually the transferred ones). To disable these notifications, log in to Shopify, go to settings->notifications and click "Disable" in the right bottom corner of the page. In case new data entities (e.g., orders, customers, etc.) have appeared on your WooCommerce store during or after the migration, we can offer you to use the Recent Data Migration service.
