Adobe Commerce and Magento to Shopify Plus

Beyond Adobe Commerce.
The strategic shift to
Shopify Plus.

See the offer

One of Australia’s most experienced Shopify Plus agencies. We plan the move with you first, then build it, so nothing you rely on gets left behind.

Shopify Platinum Partner

A Shopify Platinum Partner, one of the first certified Shopify Plus partners in Australia, and a Shopify-only agency for 14 years.

The Adobe Commerce migration offer

Two reasons to start now.

Ours takes the risk out of planning the move properly. Shopify’s helps with the platform cost as you make the move, for agreements signed before the end of the year.

Pay for the plan once. It comes off the build.

Discovery is where the move gets decided: your systems, your data, the way you trade and what the new store should do better. Go ahead with the build and we credit the whole discovery fee against it. Decide not to, and every deliverable is yours to keep.

Migration discovery$20,000*
Credited to your build−$20,000

Three or six months of Shopify Plus, credited.

For eligible merchants moving from Adobe Commerce or Magento onto a new three year Shopify Plus agreement signed by 31 December 2026.

  • Applies to Shopify’s platform fees, separate from ours
  • Eligibility is confirmed by Shopify before anything is signed
  • Cannot be applied to agreements already signed

We will introduce you to the right person at Shopify early, so the two conversations run together.

*For qualified merchants. Whether the credit applies, and how long it stands, is confirmed in your proposal before you commit to discovery. Amounts exclude GST.

Why move. Why now.

More progress. Less platform maintenance.

Your investment in Magento built something valuable. A move should protect what matters and make room for what comes next: a stronger customer experience, easier day-to-day operations and a platform your team can keep improving without waiting on a developer.

Redirect the investment.

Shopify carries the hosting, the security and the platform updates. Look at what that frees up, and put it into experience and growth instead.

Move with the business.

Give your team real control over products, content and campaigns, with an ecosystem of thousands of apps that can change as you do.

Make the economics clear.

Compare the whole operating model: platform, apps, integrations, payment costs and support. Then build the case on your own numbers.

What changes when you move

What you build around today. What Shopify does for you.

Most of the cost of running Adobe Commerce is keeping custom work alive through every upgrade. This is where that work goes on Shopify Plus, and it is the map discovery starts from.

On Adobe Commerce
Plus
Platform updates
Version upgrades and security patches you plan, test and pay for
Shipped by Shopify continuously. There is no upgrade project
Hosting and peak trading
Infrastructure to size, tune and watch, on your servers or Adobe’s cloud
Fully hosted and built for flash sales, with nothing to provision
B2B and wholesale
B2B features often extended with custom modules
Native company accounts, price lists, payment terms and quantity rules
More than one market
Websites and store views configured region by region
Shopify Markets: currencies, languages and domains from one admin
Checkout
A customised checkout you carry through every upgrade
Shopify’s checkout and Shop Pay, extended without touching the core
Custom logic
Custom code inside the platform, where upgrades break it
Shopify Functions and apps, kept outside the core so updates leave them alone
ERP and back office
Integrations maintained alongside the platform
Proven connectors, or a custom integration we build and document
Everyday changes
Developer time for layout and landing page changes
Sections and blocks your team edits in the theme editor

A general comparison. Which of your customisations move natively, which need an app and which get rebuilt is exactly what discovery settles.

Discovery before delivery

Know what the move needs to deliver.

Two tracks run side by side. One on your brand, customers and the store you want. One on your systems, your data and how they connect. They meet in a scope you can commit to.

Workshops

Discover

Asking the right questions, with the people who know the answers, in the office or remotely.

Design discovery workshop
Your brand, pain points, competitors, objectives and opportunities, with your founders, your marketing lead and whoever runs the site day to day.
Technical discovery workshop
Current site structure and data model, extensions, integrations, data migration, code quality, site speed and the right stack for Shopify.
Solutions

Define

We work through what the workshops surfaced and turn it into solutions you can see.

Data deep dives
Your analytics and store data, showing where the biggest opportunities for revenue growth sit.
Customers and journeys
The segments most likely to convert, and the user flows and messaging that will land with them.
Systems and migration plan
How orders, stock and customer data will flow, what moves, and how we check it arrived intact.
Presented to you

Scope of work

  • Functionality and integrations
  • Technology
  • Content entry
  • Warranty
  • Out of scope and assumptions

A shared view of the goals and measures that should guide the project, grounded in your own data.

Creative direction

Page by page wireframes and a proposed look and feel for the storefront, built around your customers.

Technical and migration plan

How every system connects to Shopify, what data moves, and how we prove it arrived intact.

An implementation scope

A presented scope, budget and delivery plan, so you can make an informed commitment.

After discovery

How we build.

The plan becomes the build. Every stage has a clear outcome, and the dates are set against your scope, your data and your trading calendar.

01

Design

A design you approve

Wireframes that lay out the structure of the site, then a bespoke design that brings your brand to life and guides customers to checkout.

02

Build

A store ready for review

Custom development, your integrations connected and your data brought across from Adobe Commerce, checked in several rounds.

03

Launch

A controlled go-live

Final testing across every journey, a redirect in place for every old address, and our team on hand through go-live.

04

Grow

Ongoing improvement

Your Adobe Commerce numbers become the baseline. We track the store against them and keep improving what matters most.

Dates are set in your scope, against your data, your integrations and your trading calendar.

The useful details

Good questions. Straight answers.

Is discovery free?

The first conversation is. Discovery itself is a paid engagement, because it is where the thinking happens and where you get something you can act on.

For qualified merchants it is credited in full against the build, so if you go ahead with us the plan costs you nothing extra.

How does the credit work?

You pay for discovery. If you then go ahead with a qualifying Process build, the full discovery fee comes off your build invoices.

Whether your project qualifies, and how long the credit stands, is written into your proposal before you commit to anything, so there are no surprises later.

What if we decide not to go ahead?

You keep the lot: the priorities, the creative direction, the technical and migration plan and the scope. You paid for the work, so it is yours to use, including with another agency.

Can you handle ERP, B2B and multiple markets?

Yes. Multiple storefronts, Shopify Markets, B2B and wholesale, ERP and POS connections and custom pricing are all normal parts of the work.

They are also the parts that go wrong when nobody maps them before the build starts, which is why discovery comes first.

How long does discovery take?

It depends on how much there is to unpick in your current setup and how quickly we can get the right people together. The timing is agreed up front and written into your proposal.

Will we lose our search rankings?

Nobody can guarantee rankings through a platform move, so we plan for them rather than promise them. Every URL on your old site gets a redirect to its new home, and your titles, descriptions and structured data come across with it.

We check it before launch and keep watching it afterwards, because that is when a problem shows up and is quickest to fix.

What about our customer accounts and order history?

They come across. Which records move, how far back, and how we reconcile them against your ERP or CRM is set out in the migration plan during discovery.
