BigCommerce to Shopify, cleanly
Move from BigCommerce to Shopify with your catalog, customer base and search rankings intact, and a store your team finds easier to run.
Same catalog, a bigger ecosystem
Brands usually leave BigCommerce for the Shopify app ecosystem, the checkout, or the pool of people who know the platform. The catalog structures are close enough that the data moves well, but the URL patterns, option sets and app stack are different enough to catch you out.
I handle the whole move: data, theme, apps, redirects and tracking, with a staging rehearsal before anything goes live. If you want the store redesigned during the move, that is covered under Shopify theme development.
What the migration covers
- Option sets to variants — BigCommerce option sets and modifiers rebuilt as Shopify variants, options and line-item properties.
- Customer & order history — customers, addresses, groups and full order history imported for support and reporting.
- Category to collection map — nested categories rebuilt as smart and manual collections with clean navigation.
- App-by-app replacement — each BigCommerce app matched to a Shopify equivalent, with costs compared side by side.
- Redirect plan — every product, category, brand and blog URL mapped with 301s, then crawled after launch to confirm.
- Theme rebuild — a fast OS 2.0 theme that keeps what converts on your current store and fixes what does not.
