weeks for a standard PrestaShop migration

PrestaShop migrations without complex ERP integrations typically complete in 8-12 weeks. Stores with multi-language configuration and ERP integrations extend to 12-16 weeks.

What a PrestaShop to Shopify migration covers

PrestaShop is open-source ecommerce built on PHP and MySQL. It requires self-hosting, manual updates, and module management similar to Magento 1. It is widely adopted in France and Western Europe and has a strong community but no official vendor support for older versions. Shero migrates PrestaShop stores to Shopify covering data migration, module replacement decisions, URL restructuring, ERP integration rebuilds where applicable, and full SEO protection through the stabilisation period.

  • PrestaShop data migration to Shopify
  • Module inventory and replacement decisions
  • URL mapping and 301 redirects
  • Multi-language and multi-currency configuration
  • ERP integration rebuilds where applicable
  • SEO protection through 90-day monitoring

Why PrestaShop brands choose Shero for migration to Shopify

PrestaShop migrations share the same core challenges as WooCommerce migrations: self-hosting overhead, module dependency, and a data model that does not map cleanly to Shopify without deliberate field mapping.

01

PrestaShop modules cannot be ported to Shopify

PrestaShop modules are PHP code with no Shopify equivalent. They cannot be ported. Shero inventories every module, identifies the function, and maps it to an App Store equivalent or custom build. Both options are priced in discovery so the full migration cost is known before development begins.

02

PrestaShop's multi-language architecture maps to Shopify Markets

PrestaShop handles multiple languages natively through its built-in translation system. Shopify handles multi-language through Shopify Markets and the Translate and Adapt app. Shero maps the PrestaShop language and currency configuration to the correct Shopify Markets setup in discovery so international buyers experience no broken content, wrong currency display, or missing translations at go-live.

03

Self-hosting overhead is eliminated on Shopify

PrestaShop requires server management, security patching, PHP version management, and database maintenance. Shopify handles all infrastructure as part of the subscription. Brands migrating from PrestaShop consistently reduce infrastructure costs and developer time within six months. Shero models the cost comparison in discovery.

04

PrestaShop URL structures require explicit redirect mapping

PrestaShop URL patterns differ from Shopify. Every URL that has accumulated search rankings needs a 301 redirect before go-live. Shero maps every URL, verifies all redirects before launch, and monitors organic traffic daily for 90 days. The Shopify SEO migration page covers the full workstream.

05

PrestaShop data exports via CSV and SQL for structured migration

PrestaShop product, customer, and order data exports cleanly. Shero maps the data model to Shopify's product structure and metafields so data lands in the correct fields from the first import. A record count reconciliation check after import confirms data integrity before any redirects are activated.

06

ERP integrations built for PrestaShop need rebuilding for Shopify

PrestaShop ERP connections use PrestaShop's webservice API. Shopify uses a different API. All integrations must be rebuilt from scratch. Shero scopes the rebuild in week one so it is part of the project plan from day one. The migration services hub covers how integration rebuilds are scoped across platform types.

How Shero migrates from PrestaShop to Shopify

01

PrestaShop audit

Review all product data, every active module, multi-language configuration, URL structure, and any ERP connections. The module inventory determines custom build scope and the multi-language audit determines how Shopify Markets must be configured.

02

Module replacement decisions

Map every active PrestaShop module to a Shopify App Store equivalent or custom build. PrestaShop modules are PHP code with no Shopify equivalent; each is audited for its business function and a replacement is priced before development begins.

03

Data migration

Migrate products, customers, and orders with full data integrity validation. PrestaShop's data model requires field-by-field mapping to Shopify. A record count reconciliation after import confirms completeness before any redirects are activated.

04

Multi-language and Markets setup

Configure Shopify Markets and the Translate and Adapt app to match the PrestaShop language and currency configuration. Each PrestaShop language is mapped to a Shopify Markets locale so international buyers see correct content from day one.

05

URL mapping and redirects

Map all PrestaShop product and category URLs to Shopify and verify every redirect before go-live. PrestaShop URL patterns differ from Shopify; any indexed URL without a working redirect loses its accumulated organic ranking signals.

06

Go-live and monitoring

Run the pre-launch checklist. Monitor organic traffic, multi-language content accuracy, integration health, and checkout daily for 90 days. Multi-language stores require additional monitoring for hreflang accuracy and Markets configuration correctness.
