The A-Z Shopify to PrestaShop migration process includes these below steps:

• Step 2: Set up a new PrestaShop store
• Step 3: Set up Source and Target Cart

Now, let’s head straight to 3 critical steps of the Shopify to PrestaShop migration with LitExtension.

Step 1: Set up Shopify and PrestaShop carts

You can create your new migration from Shopify to PrestaShop by simply clicking on “Create New Migration”. In the migration setup page, select Shopify as your source cart type, and you need to enter the store information, including your store URL and your API password.

In case you don’t know how to get an API password from your Shopify store, watch this video to get the job done easily:

Moving on to setting up the target cart.

In this step of cart setup, choose PrestaShop as your Source Cart and provide the store URL. Then you need to download the connector file by clicking LitExtension Connector. After that, extract the zip file and upload it to your source store’s root folder. The LitExtension connector functioning as an access gateway will help to establish a connection between your shopping carts.

Step 2: Choose entities you want to migrate

This is where you choose entities that you want to migrate from Shopify to PrestaShop. LitExtension allows you to transfer all of the important data, including products, customers, orders, and so on. You can select either all of them together or some certain data.

Besides the basic entities, LitExtension also offers several Additional Options to ensure your new store’s effectiveness. These options include free and paid ones, including Migrate customers’ passwords, and Migrate categories and products SEO URLs.

Step 3: Perform Shopify to PrestaShop Migration

After selecting the entities you want to migrate, let’s continue to the Demo Migration. The demo version works identically as the full migration but limits to 20 entities only.

You can skip this step and proceed straight to Full Migration. 

This process might take several hours to complete, and you will receive a notification via registered email when it’s done. In the meantime, you can shut down your computer and wait as the process is executed on our server. You can immediately log in to your new store to check the result right upon completion.
