How to migrate from Shopify to Tradly
Plan a Shopify to Tradly migration with catalog mapping, import testing, URL and payment checks, order validation and a controlled cutover.
Short answer
To migrate from Shopify to Tradly, inventory your products and store settings, map fields to the new catalog, test an import, rebuild key pages and verify checkout before changing your live domain. Tradly supports Shopify data imports; confirm which records and fields are included, then plan separate handling for anything outside that scope.

Step 1 · Inventory
List what must move and what can be rebuilt
Export or document products, variants, images, categories, pages, policies, URLs, payment settings and integrations. Separate active catalog data from historical orders, customer records and app-specific fields. Make a migration checklist with an owner for each item instead of assuming every record moves automatically.
Tradly: Tradly supports Shopify data imports; confirm the exact supported records and fields with the current import workflow before scheduling the move.

Step 2 · Map
Match Shopify fields to the new catalog
Create a mapping sheet for product titles, descriptions, identifiers, options, prices, images and categories. Decide how unavailable fields will be represented and identify duplicate or incomplete records. Test products with multiple variants and different image arrangements, not just a simple item.
Tradly: Tradly’s Shopify import can bring supported store data into the new catalog; use a field map to find records that need cleanup or manual work.

Step 3 · Import
Run a test batch and reconcile it
Import a small, representative set first. Compare source and destination counts, prices, option names, images and product URLs. Record any rejected or transformed fields and correct the source or mapping before importing the full catalog. Keep a dated export so you can compare after each iteration.
Tradly: Tradly supports Shopify data imports; review the imported batch and confirm its limits before proceeding with the full catalog.

Step 4 · Rebuild
Prepare pages, payments and customer paths
Recreate the navigation, policies, checkout settings and essential landing pages in the new storefront. Set up the domain and decide how old URLs should redirect where supported. Check payment gateway configuration separately because saved payment methods and provider settings may not transfer with product data.
Tradly: Tradly includes a visual editor for pages, layouts and checkout; payment settings and URL changes should be configured and tested for the new store.

Step 5 · AI
Use AI to review catalog and support gaps
Ask an agent to answer product questions from your updated listings and policies. Use an AI assistant to summarize repeated pre-migration support issues or flag product descriptions that still mention the old process. Review every suggested change against the source data before publishing it.
Tradly: Tradly Agent Builder can use your business files and pages to answer customers and help with daily tasks.

Step 6 · Cutover
Test orders, redirects and rollback steps
Before switching traffic, test product pages, variants, checkout, order notifications, mobile layout, domain and any redirects. Write down how to pause the change and restore the previous storefront if a critical issue appears. After cutover, monitor orders and customer messages closely.
Tradly: Tradly provides storefront and commerce workflows for the new site; test the complete buyer journey and keep a source backup for your own rollback plan.

Questions people ask
Can Tradly import products from Shopify?
Tradly supports Shopify data imports. Confirm which product fields, variants, images and related records are included for your particular store, and test a sample batch before importing the full catalog.
Will Shopify customers and order history transfer to Tradly?
Do not assume all customer records or historical orders transfer with the product import. Confirm the supported migration scope with Tradly and plan a compliant, separate process for any records that are not included.
Will my Shopify URLs and SEO rankings stay the same?
A platform change can alter URLs and page behavior. Inventory high-value URLs, plan redirects where available, preserve useful page content and monitor indexing after cutover. No migration can guarantee that rankings remain unchanged.
How do I reduce risk during a Shopify migration?
Use a source backup, test a representative import, reconcile counts and variants, run test orders and keep a rollback plan. Schedule the domain change only after the new checkout and customer support path work end to end.
