Magento to Shopify Migration Australia
Leave Magento’s overhead behind, not your data.
We migrate Australian Magento stores to Shopify — catalogues, customers, B2B pricing and order history moved properly, with your current store staying live until the moment we cut over.
What’s included
Every part of the move, covered.
Extension audit, catalogue and customer migration, B2B pricing, order history and SEO — run as one connected project, not an export-and-hope-for-the-best move.
01
Platform & Extension Audit
Every Magento extension, custom module and theme customisation mapped before anything moves.
Magento stores accumulate custom extensions and theme overrides fast — we document what each one does and what replaces it natively in Shopify or as a Shopify app.
Audit
- Extension & module audit
- Custom code audit
- App replacement plan
- Checkout & payment audit
Rebuild
- Shopify theme build
- Custom Liquid development
- Design refresh
- App configuration
02
Product & Catalogue Migration
Complex Magento catalogues — configurable products, attribute sets, multi-store — migrated to Shopify’s structure properly.
Magento’s configurable products, attribute sets and multi-website/multi-store setups don’t map one-to-one to Shopify. We build the translation layer so navigation, filtering and merchandising survive the move.
Catalogue
- Configurable product mapping
- Attribute set translation
- Variant migration
- Multi-store consolidation
Structure
- Collection setup
- URL structure planning
- Filtered navigation
- Image & media transfer
03
Customer, Order & B2B Data Migration
Customer accounts, complete order history and B2B pricing tiers, moved without gaps.
Customer records with meta data, full order history, and B2B-specific data like customer groups and tiered pricing — mapped to Shopify’s customer and B2B tools depending on complexity.
Customers
- Customer account migration
- Order history transfer
- Customer group mapping
- Password reset flow
B2B
- Tiered pricing migration
- Company account setup
- Quote & PO workflows
- Wholesale catalogue migration
04
SEO & Redirect Migration
The part most Magento migrations get wrong — losing rankings built up over years on an established store.
Magento’s URL structure, layered navigation URLs and CMS pages need specific mapping to Shopify’s URL structure. Every URL gets a tested redirect before launch.
Preservation
- Redirect mapping
- Meta data migration
- Schema migration
- CMS page content transfer
Monitoring
- Post-migration tracking
- Search Console management
- Crawl error monitoring
- Ranking monitoring

Why Growth Digital
More than a digital agency. Your growth partner.
We’re more than a digital agency. We become an extension of your team—bringing strategy, design, development, marketing and AI together to solve problems, unlock opportunities and drive measurable business growth.
01
Results Before Everything
Every decision we make is guided by outcomes, not opinions. From websites and digital marketing to AI automation, we focus on the metrics that matter—qualified leads, conversions, revenue and long-term business growth.
“If you can’t measure it, you can’t improve it.”
02
Faster Execution. Smarter Delivery.
Traditional agencies lose momentum in meetings, approvals and internal processes. We keep communication focused, decisions fast and projects moving—so more time is spent delivering results, not discussing them.
“Ideas are easy. Execution is everything.”
03
AI Built In, Not Bolted On.
AI isn’t an extra service—it’s part of how we work. We use AI and automation to streamline workflows, accelerate delivery and help your business operate more efficiently as it grows.
“The best way to predict the future is to invent it.”
04
Different by Design.
Growth Digital was built to challenge the traditional agency model. No expensive offices. No unnecessary overheads. No sales-driven culture. Just an Australian-led team supported by experienced global specialists, delivering premium digital solutions with better value, faster turnaround and greater flexibility.
“The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking that created them.”
05
Your Long-Term Growth Partner
We’re here for more than a single project. As your business evolves, we continue to optimise, improve and support your digital ecosystem—helping you adapt, scale and grow with confidence.
“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.”
Why us for this migration
Nothing lost, nothing broken.
Your store stays live until cutover
We build in parallel environments and migrate data in stages, with a final sync the night before launch — no sales pause, no downtime during the move itself.
We handle the complexity Magento stores actually have
Configurable products, B2B pricing tiers and multi-store setups are exactly where naive migrations break. We map every one of these before a single product moves.

Urszula Kelly
We’re really happy with Growth Digital. They built our new website and now take care of our SEO. The team was great to work with — professional, responsive, and easy to communicate with. The website looks clean, modern, and represents us perfectly.
Calamvale Medicine
We started Google Ads with Growth Digital for our pharmacy, and it’s made a real difference. More people are finding us online, and the ads actually bring in local customers. Very happy with their work.
Georgia Smith
They helped me build and customise my Shopify website exactly the way I wanted it. I had plenty of requests and lots of back and forth along the way, and they were always so patient, responsive, and accommodating. The end result is even better than I imagined.
Werner Obermeier
I signed up with Growth Digital to replace my website with a new design after about 20 years of mixed experiences with other IT companies. Jignesh and Heath exceeded all of my expectations and I am extremely happy with the outcome and their timely responses to all issues.
David Finnimore
The team at Growth Digital went above and beyond to deliver our project on-time and on-budget under testing circumstances including pushing through non-working hours. The results speak for themselves but the effort and energy put into our project was more than expected.
Bessette Bridal
My brand required a completely new website which had many moving parts. Jignesh, Heath and their team are calm, diligent, and prompt to assist. Nothing was ever a problem — very happy with how the new site has come together.
Maylene Slater-Burns
We are a First Peoples company and required a lot of time to facilitate community consultations. This company has been so supportive and patient and accommodating; we cannot brag up about them enough.
Sandy Prasad
I have used Growth Digital to set up my medical clinic. Heath has been the main IT specialist. He has been exceptional. Extremely talented. Very efficient and very high quality service.
Alison C
They took my idea and put it into a website that I am proud to go live on. They have been a great source of support during this time and I will continue to utilise their services further as my company grows. Highly recommend.
Jane Dunning
I recently worked with Growth Digital to create the new website for my business, Best in Show Photography, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. As a fine art photography company focused on the deep emotional bond between people and their dogs, it was incredibly important to me that the website felt warm, inviting, and premium. Growth Digital delivered exactly that. They beautifully showcased my portfolio, creating a clean, elegant layout that allows the images and stories to truly shine. Beyond the stunning design, the website is highly functional, easy to navigate, and perfectly set up for clients looking to invest in lifelong family portraits. The communication throughout the project was seamless, and their attention to detail made the entire process stress-free. If you are looking for a digital agency that listens, understands your brand identity, and delivers a high-quality product, I highly recommend Growth Digital!
Courtney Atkins
Growth Digital were amazing; they were very quick and so helpful. Heath was so great to work with and put together our website, very professional and highly recommended for anyone wanting to complete a website!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Growth Digital and would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.

Peter M
Very happy, they kept in good contact with me throughout, were well priced and provided exactly what I was after. Well done Growth Digital.
Travis Mcnaught
I’d definitely recommend this company for building a website and SEO. I had dealings with Jignesh & Heath and our company couldn’t be happier with the design and layout of our website. They made the process extremely easy and smooth, with explaining and answering questions that we had throughout the process. Heath was great to deal with and always quick with his work and with prompt response to my questions.
Dealivered
We recently worked with Growth Digital to set up our website and were extremely pleased with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final launch, Heath was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. He took the time to understand our needs and ensured everything was running smoothly before going live.
YL
Big thank you to Heath and Jignesh! They were able to cater to my needs and freshen up my shopify store. From start to finish they were very transparent, knowledgeable and also competitive with pricing. Would definitely recommend them to anyone.
Kwong Keet Chan
This team is fantastic from first encounter to finished project. It was a pleasure to deal with Jignesh and Heath in the whole process. They were friendly, professional, patience and get things done promptly and to-the-point. We got our e-commerce store moved from Ecwid to Shopify and nothing is too big or too small to enquire or explore. More than satisfied with the result.
Lea Simmonds
Was very happy with Heaths service and setting up our Website.
Tendai Makanyanga
It was an excellent experience working with Growth Digital. Jignesh, Heath and the team were responsive to our needs setting up our business website, Tutum Mental Health. They were great teachers along the way as well. We would highly recommend this company.
Dave Sullivan
Jignesh and Heath provide an excellent service. My new website professionally reflects my product. One of my core requirements was the website needed to be easy to navigate and understand. My expectations were exceeded. All of my requests were promptly responded to and communicated back to me. I am not all that Tech savvy however, I was respected, and time was taken to explain some of the more complex issues with me. They are patient.
Leathercare Melbourne

Antoinette Braybrook
Very thorough, responsive and supportive. I am new to Shopify and learning a lot from Heath. Thank you.

Where we work
Different cities, different stores.
Melbourne
Melbourne’s competitive retail categories mean even a short ranking or conversion dip during a migration is genuinely costly — a competitor is ready to take that traffic the moment it slips. Redirect accuracy and checkout parity matter more here than in a less competitive market.
- High-competition retail migrations
- Checkout parity
- Rigorous redirect mapping
- Close ranking monitoring
- Zero-tolerance downtime
- Competitive-market risk management
Sydney
Sydney’s larger Magento stores are often B2B or enterprise builds with custom extensions, multiple price books and years of order history, which means more custom app or Liquid development than a smaller store needs.
- Enterprise Magento migration
- B2B pricing migration
- Custom Liquid development
- Complex extension replacement
- Years-of-order-history migration
- Enterprise account management
Brisbane
Growing Brisbane retailers moving off Magento are usually chasing lower hosting and maintenance overhead as much as new features, so the priority is a store that’s genuinely cheaper and simpler to run.
- Cost-driven migrations
- Hosting-overhead reduction
- Sale-ready checkout builds
- Simplified app stack
- Growth-stage store migrations
- Foundational rebuilds
Perth
Some WA Magento stores carry years of one-off developer customisations with little documentation, so discovery — figuring out what’s actually running the store before moving it — is a bigger share of the project.
- Custom-build migrations
- Undocumented extension audits
- Trade & B2B store moves
- Old-build archaeology
- Careful data extraction
- Wholesale pricing migration
Adelaide
Adelaide’s smaller Magento stores still carry the same hosting and maintenance overhead as a large one relative to their size, so the cost case for moving is often sharper here, not weaker.
- Small-store migrations
- Cost-conscious scoping
- Same-rigour redirects
- Local retailer migrations
- Right-sized app stack
- Data-integrity focus
Gold Coast
Tourism-adjacent and seasonal Gold Coast stores often can’t afford checkout downtime during peak periods, so cutover timing gets planned carefully around the calendar, not just the build schedule.
- Seasonal-retail migrations
- Peak-period cutover timing
- Product bundle migration
- Zero-downtime checkout
- Tourism-adjacent stores
- Careful cutover sequencing
Canberra
Government-adjacent and corporate Magento stores in Canberra sometimes carry data-retention or procurement requirements that add planning steps beyond a standard retail migration.
- Compliance-aware migration
- Data-retention requirements
- Corporate & B2B stores
- Documented migration process
- Procurement-aware planning
- Regulatory-aware redirects
Hobart
Hobart stores selling food, produce or freight-dependent goods often have shipping and stock integrations that can’t have downtime during the move, so cutover sequencing gets the same rigour as a much larger mainland migration.
- Freight & shipping-integration migrations
- Produce & export store moves
- Statewide Tasmania migrations
- Same-rigour redirects
- Zero-downtime cutover
- Data-integrity focus
Ready to move off Magento without losing anything?
Tell us what your Magento store looks like today, and we’ll map out exactly what needs to happen. No cost, no obligation.
Magento to Shopify migration, done properly
A Magento migration is one of the higher-risk projects an ecommerce store goes through — custom extensions, B2B pricing structures and years of order history all need to move without a gap. Done well, customers never notice; done badly, you lose rankings, orders or revenue, sometimes all three.
This migration lands you on our Shopify & Shopify Plus Development platform — see that page for what we build once you’re there.
We run this migration for stores across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, the Gold Coast, Canberra and Hobart — the risk profile shifts from city to city, from zero-tolerance downtime in competitive Melbourne retail to untangling undocumented extension builds for WA stores.

What does a Magento to Shopify migration agency actually do?
Beyond moving products and data, most of the value is in the planning most stores don’t think to do themselves — auditing every extension and custom module actually running the store, mapping Magento’s configurable products and attribute sets to their Shopify equivalent, and rehearsing the full cutover on a staging environment before it happens for real. The migrations that go wrong are almost always missing one of these steps.
How long does a Magento to Shopify migration take?
Most mid-market Magento stores take 8 to 14 weeks. Stores with heavy extension dependencies, B2B pricing structures, multi-store setups or years of order history sit at the longer end; simpler catalogues move faster.
Why are so many Magento merchants migrating right now?
Adobe Commerce’s extended security support windows are closing through 2026, and Adobe’s push to consolidate free Magento Open Source users into paid Adobe Commerce Cloud licensing has changed the cost math for a lot of merchants who originally chose Magento because it was free. Self-hosted Magento’s total infrastructure and maintenance cost is now regularly higher than Shopify’s managed pricing.
Will I lose my Google rankings moving off Magento?
Not if redirects are done properly. Magento’s URL structure, layered navigation URLs and CMS pages need specific mapping to Shopify’s URL structure. We build the full redirect map, test it through a crawler pre-launch, migrate metadata and structured data, and monitor Search Console through the first few weeks post-launch.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
Will my store go offline during the migration?
No — your Magento store keeps running and taking orders until the moment we cut over. We build the new Shopify store in parallel, migrate data in stages, and run a final sync the night before launch.
Can you migrate B2B pricing and customer groups?
Yes — customer groups, tiered pricing and company accounts map to Shopify’s native B2B tools or a Shopify Plus B2B setup, depending on how complex your pricing structure is.
What happens to my Magento extensions?
We audit every extension running your store, document what each one does, and map it to a Shopify-native feature or app equivalent. Most extension stacks shrink noticeably post-migration since Shopify covers more natively.
Do configurable products survive the move?
Yes — Magento configurable products and attribute sets migrate to Shopify variants, with the 100-variant-per-product ceiling planned around for catalogues that push against it.
Can you migrate order history?
Yes — full order history with line items, customer data and shipping metadata moves across, so your records stay complete and searchable in Shopify.
Is there a lock-in contract?
No — a migration is a one-off project. Ongoing support or Shopify management afterwards is billed separately and month to month.
What happens if something goes wrong after launch?
We monitor closely in the days immediately after cutover — orders, rankings, crawl errors, broken links — specifically to catch and fix issues fast. A proper rollback plan is also part of every migration as a safety net.
Do you only work with businesses in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, the Gold Coast, Canberra and Hobart?
No — those are simply the cities where migration risk and complexity differ enough to be worth calling out specifically. We handle Magento to Shopify migrations for businesses anywhere in Australia; the plan is built around your actual store, wherever you are.
