Shopify → WordPress
Shopify to WordPress: what people actually mean, and how we do it.
When a store owner says “move me to WordPress,” they almost always mean WordPress plus WooCommerce, the shop engine that runs on top of it. Same migration, framed the way you searched for it.
The short version
WordPress runs the site. WooCommerce runs the shop.
WordPress is the content and hosting foundation you own. WooCommerce is the free, open-source store that plugs into it: products, cart, checkout, payments, orders. Together they replace everything Shopify did, on infrastructure no platform can switch off.
You lose the monthly plan lock-in and the transaction surcharge. You gain full control of your URLs, schema, content, and customer data. The trade-off is honest: WooCommerce is more hands-on to run, which is why we offer a maintenance retainer for teams that would rather not.
