Why Wix merchants move to Shopify.

Wix is a website builder with commerce bolted on

Shopify is e-commerce-first. Inventory management, checkout, multi-channel selling, B2B — all built natively. Wix bolts these on as add-ons that don't feel native.

Limited app and integration ecosystem

Wix has ~500 apps. Shopify has 13,000+. When you need a specific integration (Klaviyo, Recharge, advanced reviews, custom shipping), Wix often doesn't have it.

Multi-channel selling is harder

Selling on Amazon, eBay, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Google all sync natively with Shopify. Wix has limited multi-channel — and what exists is clunky.

Reporting and analytics are basic

Wix reporting is limited compared to Shopify's native analytics + the dozens of analytics apps available. Once you want cohort analysis, LTV tracking, or attribution, you need Shopify's ecosystem.

What we handle in a Wix → Shopify migration.

Wix Store products and collections

Products, variants, categories (Wix calls them collections), and custom fields all migrate cleanly to Shopify's product structure.

Design rebuilt in a custom Shopify theme

Your Wix design gets recreated in a custom Liquid theme. We use Shopify's Online Store 2.0 section architecture so you can edit content without our help going forward.

Wix Bookings, Members, or Restaurants

Wix's app-specific data (Bookings, Members, Restaurant orders) maps to Shopify equivalents — Tipo, BUCKETS, or restaurant-specific apps. We handle the data export and reimport.

Wix blog and SEO metadata

Blog posts, categories, tags, authors, and Wix SEO metadata move to Shopify's blog. URL structure mapped with 301 redirects to preserve rankings.

Customer data and order history

Customer records, addresses, and order history transfer. Customers log in with password reset on launch.

Custom domain and DNS

We coordinate the DNS cutover so your domain points to Shopify on launch day. Email forwarding, SSL, and subdomains all handled.

The 5 things Wix merchants ask before migrating.

Will my Wix SEO survive the migration?

Yes. Wix uses /product-page/, /post/, and other patterns; Shopify uses /products/, /blogs/. We map every URL with 301 redirects, preserve metadata, and migrate sitemap. Wix SEO historically lagged behind Shopify anyway, so most clients see rankings improve within 2-3 months post-migration.

How long does a Wix → Shopify migration take?

Most Wix migrations take 2-3 weeks. Under 200 SKUs: 2 weeks. 200-1K SKUs: 3 weeks. Wix data exports are clean, so the migration itself is fast — the work is in rebuilding your design natively in Liquid.

What about my Wix Bookings or Restaurants setup?

Wix Bookings migrates to Tipo, Sesami, or BookThatApp on Shopify. Wix Restaurants migrates to UpMenu or a custom Shopify build. The new tools are usually more flexible than Wix's built-in versions. We handle the full data export and reimport.

Will my Wix domain work with Shopify?

Yes. Your domain is yours — Wix doesn't own it. We coordinate the DNS transfer so your domain points to Shopify on launch day. Email forwarding, SSL certificates, and subdomains all handled cleanly. Customers don't see any URL change.

What's the price difference between Wix and Shopify?

Wix Business Basic ($27/mo) vs Shopify Basic ($39/mo). Roughly comparable. The real cost difference is at scale: Shopify's ecosystem of apps, plus Shopify Plus for enterprise ($2,300/mo flat) handle growth much better than Wix's upgrade tiers. Most merchants save money in year 2 because they need fewer paid apps to do the same things.
