Questions, answered
Should I move my Webflow store to Shopify?
Move if you need things Webflow Ecommerce can’t do at all, such as point of sale or a specific Shopify app. If your frustrations are reporting, fulfilment, variants or customers, those are back-office problems you can fix without migrating.
What does a Webflow to Shopify migration involve?
Rebuilding your design as a Shopify theme (or connecting Webflow to Shopify with a third-party tool), moving products, variants, images and customers, redirecting every URL, and reconnecting payments, tax, shipping and emails.
Will I lose SEO if I migrate?
You can keep most of it with careful 301 redirects, but URL structures differ between platforms, so plan it properly and expect some short-term disruption.
T-minus 5 minutes
Try the admin before the migration.
