How to Import Products from Wix to Shopify Using ShopGPT (Fast & Easy Method)

This traditional approach involves exporting your Wix store data and importing it into Shopify manually. While effective, it requires careful attention to detail to ensure all product information transfers correctly.

Method 1: Manual Wix to Shopify Migration Using CSV

Step 1: Back Up Your Wix Data

Before migrating, secure your store data to prevent any loss:

• Duplicate Your Wix Site (Optional):

  • Go to Wix Dashboard > Site Actions > Duplicate Site.

  • Enter a name and confirm to create a backup.

• Export Orders & Customer Data:

  • Navigate to Sales > Orders > Export All Orders.

  • For contacts, go to Contacts > Export Contacts.

⚠️ Note: This does not back up blog posts, images, or videos—download these manually.

Step 2: Export Products from Wix

• In Wix, go to Products > Export Products.

• Save the CSV file—this contains your product titles, descriptions, prices, and variants.

📌 Limitation: Wix exports only basic product data. Images and SEO metadata must be handled separately.

Step 3: Set Up Your Shopify Store

• Sign up for Shopify (14-day free trial available).

• Configure basic settings (store name, currency, shipping).

• Choose a theme (Shopify offers free and paid options).

Step 4: Customize Your Shopify Store

• Add pages (About Us, Contact, Policies).

• Modify the theme (colors, fonts, homepage sections).

• Upload your logo and branding assets.

Step 5: Import Wix Products to Shopify

• In Shopify, go to Products > Import.

• Upload your Wix CSV file.

• Map fields (e.g., Wix “Title” → Shopify “Product Name”).

• Review & Import—this may take time for large catalogs.

🔹 Post-Import Checks:

• Verify images, descriptions, and variants transferred correctly.

• Manually fix any mismatched data.

Step 6: Configure Payments & Checkout

• Go to Settings > Payments.

• Enable providers like PayPal, Stripe, or Shopify Payments.

• Set up tax and shipping rules.

Step 7: Test Before Launching

• Place test orders to ensure checkout works.

• Check mobile responsiveness and page load speed.

• Get feedback from a small group of users.
