WooCommerce to Shopify Migration in Wrexham
Moving Wrexham retailers from WooCommerce to Shopify, where the export looks cleaner than the data actually is. Product information in WooCommerce is spread across flexible metadata written by whichever plugins were installed, so a standard export can appear complete while leaving behind fields the shop genuinely depends on.
Why this comes up
The problem
The product export imported successfully, and the custom fields three plugins were writing did not come with it.
What you get
What we deliver
- Plugin-written product data identified before any export is trusted
- Custom fields and attributes mapped to Shopify metafields deliberately
- Subscriptions and bookings assessed separately, since these live in plugins
- Products, variants and inventory migrated with images at full resolution
- Customers and order history transferred, with password resets communicated
- Redirects mapped for products, categories and any content pages

WooCommerce to Shopify Migration in Wrexham — common questions
- Why is the export misleading?
- Because WooCommerce stores product data as flexible metadata, and plugins add their own. A default export returns the core fields and omits whatever an extension was writing — which is often the size guide, the specification table or the field the shop filters on.
- What happens to subscriptions?
- They need their own plan. Recurring orders held by a WooCommerce plugin do not transfer as part of a product export, and moving live subscriptions involves both a data exercise and a payment one — customers may need to re-authorise their payment method.
- Where does custom data go on Shopify?
- Into metafields, and mapping them deliberately is the difference between a working shop and a thin one. Deciding which fields matter, and how they are displayed on the new theme, is a design decision rather than something an import tool can infer.
- What do we gain and lose?
- You stop being responsible for hosting, updates and security patching, which for many businesses is the entire motivation. What you lose is database-level control — anything that was solved with a snippet in the theme or a query against the tables now has to fit within what Shopify allows.
- Do you work with businesses across Wrexham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including Wrexham and the surrounding Wrexham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Wrexham businesses do you usually work with?

- Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Chester, Liverpool, Bangor. Wrexham is an urban area of roughly 65,000+, and we take on work across the wider Wrexham region rather than the city boundary alone.
