Wix Stores to Shopify Migration

We move Wix Stores to Shopify by exporting the products, orders and contacts that Wix lets you take out, then building a new storefront. Wix states that a site has to run on its own servers, so the pages and design cannot be exported as a working copy.

If you also use Wix for bookings, a blog or members, we assess those separately, because a Shopify store does not replace them automatically.

02Decide

What leaves Wix Stores, and how

Shopify's Store Migration app does list Wix as a source. Shopify describes that route as early access, desktop only and available only for certain stores, so we check whether your store qualifies before relying on it. These are the exports we work with either way.

Physical products

How it leaves Wix

CSV with variants, options, images and SKUs, up to 5,000 rows per file

What to watch

Large catalogues are split into several files

Digital products

How it leaves Wix

Not supported by the export

What to watch

Recreate them in Shopify by hand

Orders

How it leaves Wix

CSV from the Orders tab, per item or per order

What to watch

Times are in UTC

Contacts

How it leaves Wix

CSV, up to 50,000 at once

What to watch

A contact list is not a customer account system

Reviews

How it leaves Wix

Cannot be exported

What to watch

03Rebuild

Rebuild the shop, and keep Wix extras apart

The storefront is a new build. We design it around your products rather than copying Wix pages one by one. Wix also says blog posts have no official export route to other platforms, so posts that matter are copied or recreated.

Options need attention. Shopify's Wix import keeps up to three options per product, and a product with more will arrive without its options. Where prices differ by location, the importer sets the highest price. We review both before any data is imported. Bookings, events or member areas are separate features, each with its own replacement decision.

04Test

Check the first import line by line

  1. A simple product, to confirm title, price, image and stock
  2. A product with the most options you sell
  3. A product whose price differs by location
  4. A digital item rebuilt by hand
  5. A test order from basket to confirmation email
  6. Customer sign-in tested in the chosen account mode, since passwords cannot move

Your team signs off the wording, prices and shipping rules on these samples before the main import.

05Launch

Move the domain and watch the results

Your domain can stay where it is registered, and it is pointed to Shopify when the new store is approved.

  • Keep Wix running until then.
  • Before launch we build a redirect list (a spreadsheet pairing each old address with its new page) and import it into Shopify.
  • We check that the main product, collection and information pages land in the right place.
  • Afterwards we monitor search performance, with no promise that rankings will stay the same.
  • Our Ecommerce Migration Services page sets out the wider route, and Shopify Development covers the build.

Questions about Wix Stores to Shopify

Can Shopify import my Wix store automatically?

Partly, and only if your store qualifies. Shopify says some data may need editing afterwards, so we check the result.

What happens to products with more than three options?

They arrive without their options in Shopify's Wix import. We restructure them, for example by splitting one product into several.

Will my customer reviews move?

No. Reviews cannot be exported from Wix, so we plan a way to start collecting them again.

Will my Wix bookings come across?

Not automatically. Bookings sit outside the product export, so we treat them as a separate decision about a Shopify alternative.
