BigCommerce to Shopify Plus Migration Services by Elogic Commerce
Elogic Commerce migrates BigCommerce stores to Shopify Plus through a feature-fit assessment, data transformation and storefront implementation. We review catalog structures, apps, B2B workflows and integrations before defining the target. The plan distinguishes a straightforward data transfer from the redevelopment needed to preserve essential business behavior.
Elogic Commerce’s Carbon38 case study case demonstrates Magento to Shopify Plus delivery for a multi-brand marketplace. It supports Shopify Plus destination experience, not proof of the BigCommerce-to-Shopify route. Validate BigCommerce-specific data and app replacements separately.
Once the migration scope is agreed, define the roles required from Shopify Plus developers for custom storefront and integration work.
Choose the right starting point
Check storefront and wholesale parity
Compare BigCommerce price lists, customer groups and buying workflows with the proposed Shopify Plus design. Separate data transfer from theme and app replacement. Agree how customer access, open orders and operational exceptions will work during cutover.
From requirements to acceptance
What transfers, what changes
Scope decisions and checks to agree for your project
| Migration area | Work to scope | Acceptance check |
|---|---|---|
| Product options and modifiers | Choose a target representation for each behavior. | Complex selections produce the correct purchasable item. |
| Customer groups and B2B rules | Map the actual pricing and access requirements. | Each buyer sees the intended catalog and terms. |
| Stencil theme | Rebuild the storefront for Shopify. | Approved templates work with real catalog content. |
| Order history and new orders | Agree historical import and final synchronization rules. | Orders are neither missed nor duplicated at cutover. |
| Price lists and customer groups drive different buying rules | Map the required behavior to the proposed Shopify Plus configuration and integrations. | Representative buyers see the intended prices and can complete the correct checkout route. |

Evidence from delivered work
See the work, the platform and the reported result in each published case. Both cases demonstrate Shopify Plus delivery from other source platforms; neither establishes a BigCommerce-to-Shopify-Plus route.

Scope
What the migration covers
The final scope is agreed around your platform, priorities and operating needs.
01
Platform and feature fit
Compare the capabilities used in BigCommerce with the proposed Shopify setup. Identify gaps in B2B, promotions, checkout and operating workflows.
02
Catalog and customer mapping
Transform products, options, variants, customer groups and content into the chosen target structure. Review historical orders and customer access requirements.
03
Storefront and app replacement
Rebuild the Stencil storefront in the selected Shopify approach. Review app behavior and data rather than treating app installation as feature parity.
04
Operational and SEO transition
Reconnect ERP, fulfillment and payment workflows. Rehearse redirects, data synchronization and final launch acceptance.
Make the work reviewable
What you receive
01 / DELIVERABLE
BigCommerce-to-Shopify feature matrix
02 / DELIVERABLE

03 / DELIVERABLE
Rebuilt and tested storefront
04 / DELIVERABLE
Cutover and post-launch monitoring plan
Agree the handover before work starts
Confirm the treatment of customer groups, pricing, apps and order history before estimating the move. Agree redirect validation and the reconciliation of orders around the cutover window.
Scope, investment and delivery
How we make the work concrete
01
Start with the right inputs
Prepare an inventory of BigCommerce options and modifiers, customer groups, price lists, Stencil templates and installed apps.
02
Define the scope and estimate
The estimate separates data preparation, feature replacement, storefront work, integrations, test migrations and cutover support. Data volume alone does not capture the work. Agree recurring platform, app and support costs alongside implementation.
03
Agree how to accept the work
Rehearse with representative records and reconcile products, customers and order totals. Validate account access, pricing, taxes, payments and fulfillment, then check redirects and analytics. Define the final synchronization, launch criteria and recovery responsibilities before cutover.
The company behind the work
Relevant credentials. Reviewable evidence.
Discuss the proposed team, project responsibilities and applicable controls before the engagement starts.
Certified BigCommerce Partner
Company partner status; separate from the scope and results of individual client projects.
Shopify Plus Partner
Partner status published by Elogic Commerce for Shopify Plus delivery.
Security and delivery governance
Elogic Commerce’s risk register describes delivery controls and evidence available to procurement teams. Request the applicable documents and confirm their scope for the proposed engagement.
Your questions, answered
The appropriate Shopify plan is part of the fit assessment. This service page focuses on Shopify Plus projects, while the required capabilities determine the actual subscription and implementation scope.
We document customer groups, prices, catalogs, quotes and approval requirements, then map them to supported target capabilities. Do not assume that similarly named features behave identically.
Use representative products with options, complex customer records and orders with discounts or refunds. Reconcile source and target values, then test the customer-facing behavior. Record counts alone do not prove that the store works correctly.
The design can inform the new storefront, but Stencil theme code does not become a Shopify theme. The target implementation must account for Shopify’s templates and extension mechanisms.
A tool may transfer supported records. It does not replace storefront development, app decisions, integration changes or business acceptance testing. Elogic Commerce scopes the complete transition.
