Wix to Shopify migration
Move a Wix Stores catalog into a Shopify storefront with its options, stock, and purchase flow checked together. Norml reviews the available exports, maps products and customer records, and builds the destination store. Wix apps, digital downloads, and booking features receive separate decisions so their requirements are visible before launch.
A few clients we’ve worked with
What we do
Move Wix Stores to Shopify with product-option mapping, customer and order checks, storefront setup, redirects, and launch reconciliation.
What the migration covers
This migration covers a working store. We compare Wix’s export with the products customers see and agree how each required feature will work in Shopify.

- Physical products and optionsWe inspect the Wix product-export format used by your store, then map products, variants, media rows, SKUs, prices, and stock. A trial import includes option combinations and multiple images. The resulting Shopify product must match the agreed purchase choices, not merely appear in an import report.01
- Digital products and app-owned dataWix’s documented product-list export excludes digital products. We inventory downloadable assets, delivery rules, and customer access separately. Bookings, memberships, reviews, and other Wix apps also need their own export and destination review; the product file cannot stand in for those systems.02
- Customers and past ordersWe identify the customer and order records available for transfer, agree the retained history, and choose a supported import route. Customer profiles and order history are handled separately. Sample checks cover duplicate contacts, order totals, status, and the association between an order and its customer.03
- Storefront and launch operationsWe rebuild navigation, collections, product pages, and supporting store content in Shopify. Shipping, payment configuration, customer messages, analytics, and redirects are checked before the domain switch. New orders and stock changes during the build are included in the final reconciliation.04
Client reviews
“Norml Studio's professionalism and responsiveness were impressive.”
“They were proactive in suggesting improvements we hadn't considered.”
“They delivered what they said they would, on time.”
“They focused on how to make our daily operations easier, not just on building features for the sake of it.”
“They understood that the app needed to be practical for someone sitting in a car, not just look good on a desktop.”
“Their level of dedication to the success of the project and GoPetZen's business as a whole is unique.”
What we need before the move
- A complete selling inventoryWe need Wix Stores access, your product types, active apps, original files, domain ownership, and the Shopify destination. Include any manual order handling or external fulfillment tool your team currently uses.01
- Feature and account boundariesPasswords are not transferred through Shopify’s customer CSV. Subscriptions, gift-card balances, booking appointments, and digital entitlements require explicit feasibility decisions. Any paid app or plan needed for the agreed behavior is identified before implementation.02
How we prepare the move
- [Inspect export coverage]Step 01
Compare the available Wix files with the current catalog and app list. Flag missing product types or fields and agree a route for each required data set.
- [Build and sample-test]Step 02
Create the Shopify storefront and import representative records. Review product options, image associations, stock, and how customers reach the checkout.
- [Prepare the final switch]Step 03
Test payments and shipping with approved methods, reconcile recent orders and inventory, and activate mapped redirects. After connecting the domain, verify public product pages and the agreed operational handoff.

Let's chat
“I've spent 10 years working across development and marketing. I started as a developer, but design, SEO and advertising were already part of the job. That taught me to treat a website as one system: the business, the content, the design and the code have to work together. At Norml, I lead the architecture behind our work and stay involved wherever strategy, design, development and search meet.”

Questions about the migration
How do Wix product options map?
We inspect the values and combinations in your store, then define Shopify options or a suitable product-configuration approach. A product with personalization fields or unusual choices may need different handling than a size-and-color product.
Can digital products move?
They need separate preparation because the documented Wix product-list export does not include them. We confirm access to the original files and choose how Shopify will deliver them and manage existing customer access.
What happens to past orders?
We agree whether history should be imported or retained for reference, then verify the supported fields and sample records. A contact import does not carry order history, and imported historical records must not trigger duplicate delivery.
