Move from Magento to Shopify Plus with a plan covering source data, storefront requirements, integrations, SEO redirects, testing and cutover. The scope is shaped around the current store rather than a one-size-fits-all migration.
Platform fit after discovery
A clear treatment for every dependency
Plan the destination before moving the store
Moving from Magento (Adobe Commerce) to Shopify Plus is a replatforming programme, not a file import. The source catalogue, customer and order data, content, URLs, integrations, custom modules, markets, checkout and operational workflows all need explicit destination decisions.
Prosper Digital helps ecommerce teams audit the current Magento implementation, define requirements, plan the destination architecture, migrate and validate agreed data, design and build the storefront, reconnect systems, map redirects, test priority journeys, rehearse cutover and verify the launch. The scope records what moves, what is transformed, rebuilt, archived or retired, and who owns each dependency.
We assess catalogue complexity, markets, checkout, B2B needs, integrations, data retention and operational workflows before recommending the destination.
A clear treatment for every dependency
The scope records what moves, what is transformed, rebuilt, archived or retired, and who owns each dependency.
Shared responsibilities and validation criteria
Dependencies, responsibilities, exceptions and validation criteria are documented so the merchant and implementation teams share the same migration plan.
Cutover with post-launch verification
Migration tests, cutover rehearsals and go or rollback criteria precede launch; after cutover, agreed journeys, data, integrations, analytics, redirects and crawlability are verified.
What a Magento to Shopify Plus migration can include
Confirm the data, content, integrations, search requirements, acceptance criteria and owners before implementation begins.
Review the current Magento edition and version, catalogue structure, extensions, customisations, content, URLs, analytics, integrations and operational workflows. Record dependencies, data quality issues, risks and owners before defining the destination.
Map required capabilities to Shopify Plus, Shopify-native features, apps or custom development. Define markets, customer accounts, B2B needs, checkout, promotions, subscriptions, fulfilment, reporting and Admin workflows that are in scope.
Specify the products, variants, collections, customers, relevant order history, content and metadata to migrate. Prepare transformations, validation rules and a redirect map for Magento URLs that will change.
Design and build the agreed storefront, then connect required systems such as ERP, PIM, WMS, CRM, payments, tax, search and marketing tools where those integrations are in scope and technically supported.
Run repeatable migration tests and acceptance checks, resolve exceptions, rehearse the cutover, plan content and data freezes, and define go or rollback criteria before launch.
After cutover, verify priority customer journeys, data, integrations, analytics, consent, redirects, crawlability and indexation. The monitoring and support period is agreed for each migration.
How we plan a Magento replatform
1. Audit the source store — Review the Magento implementation, catalogue, extensions, customisations, content, URLs, analytics, integrations and operating workflows.
2. Define the destination — Map the requirements to Shopify Plus, Shopify-native features, apps or scoped custom development, with owners and exclusions recorded.
3. Prepare data, content and SEO — Assign each dataset a treatment, define validation rules and prepare redirect mappings for important Magento URLs that will change.
4. Build, connect and test — Deliver the agreed storefront and integrations, then run repeatable migration and acceptance tests and resolve documented exceptions.
5. Rehearse and verify launch — Plan the cutover and go or rollback criteria, then verify the agreed journeys, data, systems, analytics, redirects and crawlability after launch.
When is Shopify Plus a suitable Magento destination?
Shopify Plus can change the infrastructure and maintenance responsibilities of a Magento implementation, but platform fit depends on catalogue complexity, markets, checkout requirements, B2B needs, integrations, data retention and operational workflows. Discovery should identify which requirements map to Shopify, which need apps or custom development and which should be redesigned. The recommendation follows that review rather than assuming every Magento store should move.
