Drupal Commerce to Shopify Migration

Drupal Commerce is a self-hosted, open-source platform built on Drupal’s module ecosystem, which means you manage your own hosting, server security, and updates, typically with developer support. Shopify is a fully hosted platform that handles hosting, security patches, and infrastructure scaling for you, paired with a large app marketplace and built-in tools for payments, themes, and SEO.

This makes Shopify more accessible for those who want to run their store without ongoing technical overhead, and also one of the reasons why many merchants want to migrate from Drupal Commerce to Shopify.

Since this pair is available through LitExtension’s All-In-One Migration Service, pricing starts from $169 and includes technical consultation, data mapping, a demo migration, the full transfer, results testing, and up to 60 days of post-migration support. Your final price scales based on the total number of products, orders, customers, and blog posts on your store.

Visit the Pricing Estimator on this page, or reach out to our Support Agents, for an accurate cost estimate based on your store’s specific data volume.

Several factors come into play when determining your final Drupal Commerce to Shopify migration price:

• The total volume of data you migrate, such as your product count, order history, and customer records.
• The complexity of your migration project, including custom fields, unique product attributes, or specialized business logic built into your Drupal Commerce store, which often requires additional mapping work.
• The migration method selected and any add-on services you require, such as custom field mapping or extra consultation time.

Most migrations complete within a few hours to a few days once the technical consultation and data mapping are finished, though your exact timeline depends on your store’s size and data complexity.

A straightforward catalog with standard products, orders, and customers can move quickly, sometimes within the same day of the full migration starting. Larger stores with extensive product variants, custom Drupal content types, or third-party integrations take longer to map and validate properly during the pre-migration setup phase.

Yes. LitExtension transfers product SKUs for both simple and variant products during your Drupal Commerce to Shopify migration, keeping your inventory tracking and product identification consistent between the two platforms so your stock counts and order records line up correctly on your new store.

Our team maps your Drupal Commerce product attributes to Shopify’s product structure, primarily through Shopify’s Variants (covering fields like name, SKU, weight, quantity, and price) and metafields for anything that needs custom storage. Because Drupal Commerce and Shopify organize product data differently, our experts review your specific attribute setup during the technical consultation to plan the mapping before the migration runs.

Shopify limits every product to a maximum of 3 options, such as size, color, or material, and up to 2,048 variants per product. If your Drupal Commerce products exceed the 3-option limit or use a data structure that doesn’t map cleanly to variants, you may need to restructure some listings, for example, splitting them into separate products, and our team can help you plan the best approach during the consultation.

Yes. We map your Drupal Commerce product categories, including their names, descriptions, and images, to Shopify’s Collections. After migration, your products appear correctly grouped within these Collections on your new store, preserving the browsing structure your customers already know.

Yes. Your Drupal Commerce store remains fully active and functional throughout the entire migration, so you can keep taking orders, updating products, and running your business as usual. LitExtension runs the full transfer on our secure cloud system in the background, with no need to put your store into maintenance mode.

Our automated 301 redirect option maps your old Drupal Commerce URLs, including product, category, and content page paths, to their matching Shopify pages. This prevents broken links for both search engines and returning visitors, helping your new store retain crawlability and indexing after the switch instead of starting from zero.

However, keep in mind that your SEO effort is built around many elements, and our specialist cannot guarantee your SERP rankings post-migration.

Drupal Commerce stores often include custom fields and content types built for a specific business setup, and these don’t map to Shopify automatically since the two platforms structure data very differently. With our All-In-One service, our experts review your custom fields during the technical consultation and recommend the best way to handle them, whether that means mapping to Shopify metafields, a custom migration script, or a manual workaround.

You can migrate your core store data: products, product categories, customer profiles, order history, and product reviews. Some entities, like coupons, CMS pages, and blog posts, don’t transfer automatically because Drupal Commerce doesn’t export this data in a structured way that our migration tool can read. 

Yes. LitExtension protects your exchanged data with HTTPS and 128-bit SSL encryption, and every migration job runs on secure Linode servers located in the USA, Europe, Australia, and Singapore. We don’t store your customer data on our servers, since your data moves directly from your Drupal Commerce store to your Shopify store. LitExtension is GDPR-compliant, and we sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement with you before your migration order is made.
