Why leave Shopify
You rent the rules on a SaaS platform.
The clause that removed every vape product from Shopify in July 2026 arrived with no court order and little notice. Three reasons merchants move, one thesis behind all of them: own the thing your income depends on.
Policy risk
A legal category was removed from the platform overnight. On your own stack, no policy change can switch off your storefront.
Transaction fees
Shopify adds 0.5 to 2 percent on top of card fees unless you use Shopify Payments. WooCommerce takes no platform surcharge.
SEO ceiling
Shopify caps your URL structure and runs redirects through a middle layer. On WordPress every URL, redirect, and schema tag is yours.
The core idea
The stack you own.
When the migration finishes, your storefront, your data, and your rules sit on infrastructure you control. Your Shopify data does not vanish, it moves across, piece by piece.
What we move
Everything, and the redirects that protect your rankings.
A migration is only clean if nothing is left behind. Every object below comes across, and every old Shopify URL gets a 301 redirect to its WooCommerce home.
- Products
- Variants
- Customers
- Orders
- Reviews
- 301 redirects
- Blog posts
- Media
Who we move
Vape is the loudest story. It is not the only one.
The vape ban is here now. The same “own your stack” logic protects every category regulators or payment processors are tightening around.
Vape & e-cigarettes
Hit by the July 7 2026 shutdown. Emergency migration, high-risk gateways, age verification, PACT-compliant shipping.
Vape shop migration →CBD, firearms, adult
Categories a policy change could remove next. Move on your own timeline, before you are forced to.
Policy-risk verticals →Fee-tired & SEO-capped
Not in a restricted category, just tired of the surcharge and the SEO ceiling. Own your stack and your rankings.
Standard migration →A 30-day post-migration guarantee.
We back uptime, data integrity, redirect coverage, and SEO retention for 30 days after cutover. If a redirect is missing or a page drops, we fix it.
Straight answers
The three questions every owner asks.
Will I keep my Google rankings?
Yes, if the migration is done properly. Every old Shopify URL gets a 301 redirect to its WooCommerce equivalent, the URL structure and meta carry across, and we monitor rankings through the cutover. SEO retention is a first-class deliverable, not an afterthought.
How long does a migration take?
A standard migration is 2 to 4 weeks: audit, staging build, data migration, QA and redirects, cutover, then a monitoring window. An emergency lift-and-shift for a shut-down store restores trading in 5 to 10 days by deferring the full theme rebuild until after you are back online.
What about my Shopify apps?
We map each app to a WooCommerce equivalent during the free audit. Most have a direct or better counterpart. The audit flags any that do not before you commit, so there are no surprises after the move.
