Shopify migration service for Australia.

Australian stores usually move to Shopify for the checkout, the apps and the ease of running promotions. The move itself is mostly about not losing what you already have: URLs, customers, payment options and clean tax display.

What you get

• Products, variants, images, collections and metadata moved to Shopify.
• Customers and order history imported where the source platform allows.
• Prices carried over in AUD and GST-inclusive or exclusive, as you instruct.
• 301 redirects from old URLs to new ones.
• A shipping and payments checklist for your launch.
• A QA report comparing source and destination counts.

How it works

1. Audit. You send an export or give read-only access. We list products, collections, pages and URL patterns.
2. Fixed quote. One price per store, in AUD.
3. We build. The AI engine does the volume and a person reviews every output.
4. You approve. The Shopify store stays unpublished while you test products and checkout.
5. Cutover. Redirects load, you point the domain, and we spot-check through a collaborator account.

What is different about Australian migrations

GST-inclusive display

Australian shoppers expect to see one price, GST included. A WooCommerce store may hold prices ex-GST with tax added at checkout, whereas Shopify can be set to show tax-inclusive prices. The move is where a 10% difference creeps in. We compare a sample of products on both platforms before and after, and flag any row where the displayed price changed. See our Australian GST guide.

Shipping apps

Australian stores often rely on Australia Post or Sendle. On Shopify these connect through carrier integrations, apps or manual rate tables. Parcel size and weight data drive them, and unreliable weights are the number one problem we see after a migration. We clean those fields and list what you need to configure. Where a carrier has parcel limits, we flag oversized products.

Afterpay and Zip

Buy-now-pay-later options are widely used and sit in the checkout. They are not migrated as data. We note which ones the old store offered, confirm the new store has them enabled and check that messaging on product pages is not lost in the move. Provider rules and eligibility are theirs, not ours.

Redirects

We test every line, because a redirect chain is the usual cause of lost link value. Our 301 redirect guide shows the format.

Pricing

Platform migration is quoted per store, in Australian dollars, after a scoping look at your store. The fixed quote reflects products, variants, customers, languages and redirects, and arrives before work begins; see pricing. The quote also sets the timeline, based on scope.

Is this a fit?

It suits Australian stores with a few hundred products or more, a search history to protect, or a messy store that needs tidying on the way. See our WooCommerce to Shopify page for the most common route.

If you have a small catalogue and little traffic, Shopify's own import tools may be enough. For theme design, custom development or GST advice, hire a specialist.
