How a Squarespace to Shopify Move Works

Most Squarespace stores move to Shopify for more apps, more checkout options or room to grow. We plan for that growth during the move.

custom Shopify discovery

Inventory first

We list every product, page, form and integration on the Squarespace site before we start.

custom business logic in Shopify

Shopify set up properly

Payments, taxes, shipping and apps are configured for how you sell, not copied one to one.

transparent custom development process

Design you can edit

Pages are built from Shopify sections, so your team can change them in the theme editor.

scalable custom Shopify architecture

Traffic kept

Redirects and meta data move with the store, so search results and bookmarked links still work.

Squarespace to Shopify Migration FAQ

How long does a Squarespace to Shopify migration take?

Timing depends on catalog size, the number of pages and the design work. SPLIT Development gives a timeline with a fixed quote after a free store review.

Can I keep my domain when moving from Squarespace to Shopify?

Yes. Your domain is connected to Shopify. If it was registered through Squarespace, it can stay there or be transferred.

Will I lose Google rankings after moving to Shopify?

Rankings are protected with 301 redirects from Squarespace URLs to Shopify URLs and carried-over meta data. Short-term position changes are possible while Google processes the redirects.

Can my blog move from Squarespace to Shopify?

Yes. Blog posts and images move to the Shopify blog, and each old post URL redirects to its new address.

Can I keep my Squarespace design?

Yes. SPLIT Development can rebuild the current look on a Shopify theme or design a new one. Either way, pages are built from sections your team can edit.

Do my customers need new passwords?

Yes. Passwords can’t be moved between platforms. Customers get an invite to activate their Shopify account, and their order history is already there.
