Migrating from PrestaShop to Shopify

In this article, we will discuss everything related to migrating from PrestaShop to Shopify.

In this article, we will discuss everything related to migrating from PrestaShop to Shopify. PrestaShop is a very popular open-source e-commerce platform.

Shopify is a cloud-based e-commerce platform that provides a complete solution for creating online stores. Both platforms are highly popular among online retailers.

Migrating an online store from PrestaShop to Shopify

It involves several steps that need to be followed.

First, you need to export your data from PrestaShop using a completely free module provided by Shopify for PrestaShop. Once the export is completed, it will be downloaded in a ZIP file.

Download the ZIP file of the export module.
Go to your PrestaShop control panel, navigate to Modules, then Module Manager, and finally, click on Upload a Module.
Select the ZIP file you downloaded earlier to install the module in your PrestaShop store.
After installing the module, click on Configure.
Finally, click on Export on the module’s page. A CSV file with your eCommerce data will be saved.

Please note that this process is for exporting data from PrestaShop to prepare for the migration to Shopify. The actual import into Shopify will require additional steps, which you should follow in the Shopify platform.

Importing products from PrestaShop to Shopify

It involves a series of steps:

In your Shopify admin panel, click on “Apps” and then select “Store Importer.”
On the “Import your data to Shopify” page, choose “PrestaShop” from the submenu.
Under “Upload files,” click “Add file” and select the exported file from PrestaShop.
Click “Continue import” and then “Import.”

If you have followed the steps correctly, all the data from your PrestaShop store should be imported into Shopify.

However, there might be specific products or data that encounter errors during the import process. In such cases, you may need to manually add those products to your Shopify store.
