FAQs About Lightspeed to Shopify Migration

Not seeing your question listed here? Contact Us for the quickest answer.

What data can be migrated from Lightspeed to Shopify?

LitExtension migrates supported Lightspeed products and product categories, customers, and orders to Shopify.

The transferable fields include core product details, prices, inventory data, product tags, variants, images, customer names and emails, and supported order history. The What Data section above lists the route fields in detail.

Can Lightspeed product variants and images be migrated to Shopify?

Yes. LitExtension migrates supported Lightspeed product variants, thumbnail images, and additional product images to Shopify.

Product names, SKUs, descriptions, prices, inventory fields, dimensions, product tags, and SEO metadata are also included in the supported product scope.

Can customer passwords be migrated from Lightspeed to Shopify?

No. Customer passwords are not included in the standard Lightspeed to Shopify migration.

For Shopify Customer Accounts, migrated customers sign in using a code sent to their email address, so a reusable Lightspeed password is not required for the new account flow.

Can LitExtension preserve Lightspeed order IDs on Shopify?

Yes. Lightspeed Order ID is included in the supported route data, so the Preserve Order IDs option keeps supported order IDs unchanged during migration to Shopify.

This provides a consistent reference between historical Lightspeed orders and their migrated Shopify records.

How are Lightspeed categories handled on Shopify?

LitExtension migrates supported Lightspeed category names, descriptions, images, and SEO metadata to Shopify.

With the Shopify Smart Collections option, relevant product tags are added during migration so source category and subcategory organization can be represented through Shopify Smart Collections.

Can LitExtension create 301 redirects from Lightspeed to Shopify?

Yes. Select the Create 301 Redirects option and LitExtension creates redirects from old Lightspeed URLs to the corresponding Shopify URLs.

This helps visitors and search engines reach the correct target pages when store URLs change during replatforming.

Does the Lightspeed API affect migration time?

Yes. Lightspeed API rate limits affect processing speed on this route, and the migration processes one entity type at a time.

Larger catalogs and order histories therefore take longer to process. Your migration expert accounts for these API constraints in the migration plan and monitors the transfer through completion.

Can Lightspeed gift cards be migrated to Shopify?

Yes. Lightspeed gift cards can be handled as a custom scope for migration to Shopify.

Gift card structure and balance handling are reviewed as part of project setup. For this requirement, contact us via Live Chat.

Will my Lightspeed store stay online during the migration?

Yes. The migration runs separately from your live Lightspeed storefront, so customers can continue browsing and placing orders while the main transfer is running.

Before launch, newly created data can be handled through the appropriate post-migration update process so the final Shopify store reflects recent activity.

How much does a Lightspeed to Shopify migration cost?

The cost depends on your data volume, store complexity, mapping requirements, and project-specific work.

You can use the Cost Estimator for an initial estimate, then use the All-in-One service quote for the expert-managed migration scope.

Paulo Limp

LitExtension was always professional, patient, and very reliable during an extensive migration effort we were involved. They answered all the questions, and kept track of all the problems until we reached a final solution. Excelent service!

P Johnson

We have used LitExtension for an extensive Lightspeed to Shopify migration as well as minor Shopify to Shopify migration. Both experiences were great, they’re very thorough with their testing and set up and more than happy to support and rectify any anomalies that appear during your project. Often they flag things you might not have thought of yet. Both times very happy with the results.

Lana Bain

We have never migrated a shop and were nervous at first, but both Malphite and Ben were so wonderful, patient and efficient. Don’t hesitate to use LitExtension, they provide EXCEPTIONAL service! I highly recommend them and would use them again!
