Features · Moving from Shopify
Move your Shopify store. Keep your links.
We bring your products over to a shop on your own PageTend website, with their photos, prices, sizes and colors, and point every old product link to its new page, so Google and saved links still find you. Then we keep the whole site running, and you change things by email.
What comes over
Your store, product by product.
We work from Shopify's own product export, so nothing is typed in again by hand.
-
Products and descriptions
Every product's title and description, as plain, readable text. Products arrive hidden, so nothing shows until you have checked it.
-
Sizes, colors and their prices
Choices come over with their prices: if Large costs $4 more, it still does. Up to two kinds of choice per product.
-
Photos
Up to six photos per product, copied to your site and sized for every screen.
-
Categories
Your product types become shop categories, shown as chips at the top of the shop.
-
Stock counts
Where Shopify's export includes stock, it comes over as one count per product.
-
Your old links
Every old product address points to its new page with a permanent redirect, so search results and saved links keep working.
How it works
Three steps, and you approve the last one.
Send us your export
In Shopify, open Products, tap Export and choose all products. Shopify emails you a file: forward it to us with your store's address.
We build your shop
We import the file, set up your shipping, tax rate and policies, and build the rest of your site around it. You get a link to look through everything.
You approve, then we switch
When you are happy, we point your domain to the new site and turn on the redirects. Your Shopify store keeps running until you close it.
Honestly
Is it a good fit?
Our shop is made for small makers and local stores. If your store leans on the things in the last card, staying on Shopify may suit you better, and we will tell you so before you pay anything.
A good fit
Up to a few hundred products, sizes and colors with simple prices, one sales tax rate, flat-rate or free shipping, local pickup, and discount codes.
Also a good fit
Card payments straight into your own account with no cut from us, or order requests you bill yourself.
Better to stay on Shopify
You rely on add-on apps, subscriptions, selling in several currencies, tax worked out by state, or separate stock counts for every size and color.
Questions
What Shopify owners ask.
What does moving my Shopify store cost?
Moving your shop is included with your website for up to 100 products. For a bigger shop we quote the move first, and nothing is charged until you say yes. The website is $99 a month, month to month, and the shop is free with it. See pricing.
Will I lose my Google ranking?
We redirect every old product address to its new page, which is the main thing that protects it. As with any move, rankings can shift for a few weeks while Google catches up.
Can you connect to my Shopify store instead of moving it?
No. We move the shop so your website and your shop live in one place, run by us. If your store depends on apps or subscriptions, keeping Shopify is the better choice, and we can link to it from your new website.
What doesn't come over?
Past orders, customer accounts, reviews, gift cards, apps and their data. Your shipping and returns policies are copied over by us from your store's policy pages.
Do I keep my domain?
Yes. It stays in your name. If it was bought through Shopify, we help you move it when you are ready to switch.
Can I see it before I decide?
Yes. We build your shop before you pay anything, and nothing goes live until you approve it.
Thinking of leaving Shopify?
See your shop on your own site first.
Send us your store's address. We build a real site with your shop on it and email you the link, before you pay anything.
