Move to Shopify with ease

Replatform to Shopify

Switch platforms without data loss or downtime

How does a migration to Shopify work?

Switching platforms is not an easy job. Wether you're moving from WooCommerce, Shopware, Magento or another platform: we help you migrate to Shopify without any data loss or downtime. That means your new Shopify store needs to be carefully configured and thoroughly tested. But even though a migration has its challenges, we notice that the switch to Shopify always pays off.

The devil is in the details

When migrating with dear digital, we make sure everything is taken care of - even the not so obvious details. Like analytics tracking, custom apps and structured data. Sure, your store will work on the surface, and everything seems fine. But in the back-end, you've lost valuable data, made messy connections or inexplicable errors keep popping up. And that will hurt you in the long haul.

We believe in a phased approach

When migrating to Shopify, we follow a proven approach, tailored to the software you're replatforming from. By taking the time to follow every step thoroughly, we make sure you end up with a Shopify store where every little thing works. You'll never have to worry about problems popping up later on.

Our phased approach

1. Analysis & Planning

We run a series of workshops to align business goals, technical feasibility, and budget.

By investing time upfront, we de-risk the project, minimising technical surprises, bottlenecks, and budget overruns.

2. Design

In this phase we’ll create a scalable design system in Figma aligned with your brand and the code we’ll be writing.

Our design approach makes it easier to scale across teams, brands, and markets without starting from scratch each time.

3. Data migration

To avoid bottlenecks later in the build, we initiate the migration process early so we can plan, test, document, and iterate.

Depending on the data, we work with custom API's, specific migration tools, and/or the good old CSV.

4. Development

We follow an agile approach to deliver structured, iterative progress, with full transparency and flexibility.

Development is broken into two-week sprints, each including planning, execution, demos, and refinement.

5. Go-live

This phase marks the transition from build to live. We implement a phased launch strategy that prioritises stability.

We begin with a soft launch in a low-traffic window, monitor performance in real time, and resolve any final issues before scaling to full traffic and campaigns.

6. Care & growth

We don’t just launch: we optimise and scale. Together, we track key metrics, refine strategy, and ensure continuous growth.

We have a dedicated helpdesk and SLA, ensuring stability and quick issue resolution.
