[ THE PROCESS ]

Six phases. Zero surprises.

Migration is not a one-button operation. We treat it like the systems engineering project it is. Here's exactly what happens, in order, every time.

01

Discovery

We audit your current platform: schema, integrations, third-party services, and historical data quality. You receive a written diagnostic with recommended scope.

02

Architecture

We design your Shopify architecture: variant strategy, metafield model, app stack, theme approach, and integration map. Approved before we touch a database.

Architecture spec + redirect map
03

Build

We provision your Shopify (or Plus) instance, build the theme, and configure apps. Parallel to your live store. No customer impact.

Staging store ready for QA
04

Migration

Data is moved with our internal ETL: products, variants, customers, orders, content, redirects. Every record is hash-verified against source.

05

QA + UAT

Side-by-side validation. You walk every flow: PDP, cart, checkout, account, search, support. We don't ship until you sign off.

UAT sign-off + cutover plan
06

Launch + Support

DNS cutover during your lowest-traffic window. We monitor for 72 hours. 30 days of post-launch fixes included on every plan.
