Move from Magento to Shopify
without losing an order.

What we do

PixelCrayons migrates Magento stores to Shopify, mapping catalogue, attribute and order data to Shopify's schema before anything moves. Multi-store setups, custom attributes and B2B pricing logic are inventoried and mapped first. A redirect map ships with the cutover, and Magento isn't decommissioned until the new store is verified against that inventory, record for record.

  1. A Magento-specific catalogue auditEvery product, custom attribute and multi-store setup inventoried and mapped before migration starts.
  2. Order history and customer accounts, mapped and verifiedOrders, customers and B2B pricing tiers migrated and reconciled against the pre-migration count.
  3. A redirect map for Magento's URL structureEvery historic Magento URL gets a mapped, tested redirect into Shopify before cutover.

In every Magento move

What a Magento to Shopify
migration actually includes.

01

A Magento-specific catalogue audit

Every product, custom attribute, configurable and multi-store setup Magento holds is inventoried first. Magento's attribute structure has no direct Shopify equivalent, so each custom attribute is mapped to a Shopify metafield or option before migration starts, not discovered mid-move.

First
02

Order history and customer accounts, mapped and verified

Order history, customer records and any B2B pricing tiers Magento holds are migrated and reconciled against the pre-migration count. Nothing is switched off on Magento until Shopify matches, record for record.

Before decommission
03

A redirect map for Magento's URL structure

Magento's category and product URL patterns rarely match Shopify's out of the box. Every historic URL gets a mapped, tested redirect into Shopify's structure before cutover, so search equity built on Magento doesn't leak on the move.

Before cutover
04

A rehearsed cutover, not a live experiment

The full move is rehearsed on a Shopify sandbox first: catalogue imported, redirects live, checkout exercised with real payment methods. The real switch is the rehearsed runbook run for real, not the first attempt.

Rehearsed first
05

An honest read on whether Shopify fits

A Magento to Shopify migration company has every reason to recommend the move, so we test the case against it first. Magento still fits complex B2B pricing and heavily customised catalogues better than Shopify in some cases. If that's your situation we'll say so in the plan rather than migrate you somewhere that costs more to run than it saves.

How we report it, in Prism

The cutover plan,
with nothing switched off early.

What you receive in month one

A migration is reported as an inventory and a cutover plan you approve before anything moves. In the first month you receive the full inventory of URLs, records and integrations, the redirect map matching every old address to its destination, and the data reconciliation plan naming how record counts will be checked on both sides. The old platform stays live until each check passes.

  • 01Inventory: URLs, product and customer records, integrations, and their owners
  • 02Redirect map: every old address matched to its destination and tested
  • 03Data reconciliation plan: counts and spot checks on both platforms
  • 04Cutover runbook: the order of steps, the checks between them, the rollback
  • 05Post-move watch: crawl errors, order flow and search visibility, daily at first

Where this fits

One narrow path,
inside the full migration.

This page covers the Magento-specific mapping work. For the full audit, redirect and cutover sequence that applies whatever your source platform, see Shopify Migration. If Magento's B2B pricing or catalogue complexity turns out to be the better fit after the audit, our Magento / Adobe Commerce development team keeps building on it. Once the move is done, our Shopify Development team handles themes, custom apps and Plus work on the new store.

The mapping

Where each part of Magento
lands in Shopify.

Magento's data model has no one-to-one Shopify equivalent, so each structure below gets its mapping decision in the audit, before migration starts, not mid-move.

What Magento holdsWhere it lands in ShopifyHow we decide
Custom attributesA metafield, a variant option, or dropped as unusedEach attribute gets its own decision in the audit, made before any data moves.
Multi-store and multi-website setupsOne Shopify store with markets, or several linked storesSet by how your stores share, or do not share, catalogue, customers and pricing.
Simple tiered or customer-group pricingShopify's B2B features or a compatible appThis usually maps across.
Heavily customised pricing logicSometimes nowhere cleanThe plan says so plainly, including the option of staying on Magento for that reason alone.

Questions

Frequently
asked.

Magento's data model is the most complex of the common source platforms: custom attributes, configurable products, multi-store setups and sometimes B2B pricing tiers, none with a one-to-one Shopify equivalent. Each custom attribute needs a mapping decision (a metafield, a variant option, or dropped as unused), made before migration starts rather than patched afterwards.

It depends on how it's built. Simple tiered or customer-group pricing usually maps to Shopify's B2B features or a compatible app. Heavily customised Magento pricing logic sometimes doesn't translate cleanly, and if that's your case, the migration plan will say so plainly, including the option of staying on Magento for that reason alone.

It depends on catalogue size, how many custom attributes are in play and whether multi-store setups are involved, so we scope timelines per engagement. Once we have a complete brief, we confirm when your proposal arrives.

Not if the redirect map is built before cutover. Magento's URL structure rarely matches Shopify's directly, so every historic URL (category, product, blog) gets mapped to its Shopify destination and tested on staging first. Some short-term ranking volatility after any platform change is normal, but a migration that loses search equity has almost always skipped this step.

The audit answers that before you commit. We check your B2B pricing logic, custom attributes and multi-store setup against what Shopify can hold. Where Magento still fits better, the migration plan says so rather than moving you somewhere that costs more to run than it saves.

Yes, and the audit confirms it early, since Magento's multi-store structure has no single Shopify equivalent. Depending on how your stores share catalogue, customers and pricing, the right shape might be one Shopify store with markets or several linked stores. The migration plan names which fits before anything moves.
