Products and customers
Physical and service products, variants, and customer lists imported and checked against your Squarespace store.
The Problem
Your Squarespace Site Looks Great, but Your Store Needs More Room
It shows up when you want loyalty points, bundles, or a marketplace feed, and the apps built for them live on Shopify. Then the domain, email, and blog make moving feel risky.
01 · Growth
Every new idea, from bundles to loyalty, points to Shopify apps.
Your design is rebuilt as a Shopify theme with room for those apps.
02 · Inbox
Your domain and business email run through Squarespace.
We connect or transfer your domain without touching your email records.
03 · Downloads
Some of your products are digital downloads.
Each digital product is recreated with its file reattached.
04 · Blog traffic
Your blog brings in half your visitors.
Posts and pages move from the XML export, and each old URL gets a redirect.
Your store started as a beautiful Squarespace site with a few products. Now you sell more, and every new idea, from bundles to loyalty points, points toward Shopify apps. But your domain and business email run through Squarespace, your blog brings in half your visitors, and some products are digital downloads. You're not sure what exports cleanly, and a broken inbox or a lost post would cost more than the move.
We start by checking where your domain, email records, products, and posts live, and what Squarespace can export. Products and customers come across by CSV, orders by migration app, and posts and pages from the XML export, with every image pulled from your live site. Your design is rebuilt as a Shopify theme, and each old URL gets a 301. Your inbox keeps working, and your posts keep ranking.
Domain and email planned first
We connect or transfer your domain without touching the email records your inbox depends on.
Downloads rebuilt, not lost
Digital products skip Squarespace's CSV, so we recreate each one and reattach its file.
Store and blog URLs redirected
Product paths with /p/ and every blog post get a 301 to their new Shopify address.
Our Squarespace Migration Process
From Site Review to Shopify Launch in Five Clear Steps
You see the export plan, the new store, and the redirect list before your domain moves. Nothing changes on your live site until you approve.
We review your products, digital downloads, blog, domain registrar, and email setup, and note which pages earn search traffic. If Shopify's own CSV import already covers your store, we'll tell you before we quote.
What's Included
Your Checklist to Migrate From Squarespace to Shopify
Every plan moves products, customers, orders, and pages, handles your domain, and redirects every URL. Larger plans add full blogs, digital products, your design, and apps.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from store owners we have designed, built, and moved stores for.
We had a different kind of problem. People were visiting the store, adding products to their carts, and then disappearing before they finished the order. We had tried a few apps and made changes here and there, but nothing really seemed to solve the bigger issue. The team went through the shopping experience with us and pointed out things we hadn't really noticed ourselves. They cleaned up the cart and checkout flow, made the mobile experience much smoother, and helped us make the store feel easier to shop. I’m not going to pretend we fixed everything overnight, but it finally feels like the store is helping the sale instead of getting in the way of it.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture
Why Creators and Store Owners Trust Us to Leave Squarespace
Squarespace sites mix products, posts, downloads, and email on one domain, so we plan all four before anything starts moving.
Domain and email kept working
We check where your domain and email records live before touching DNS. Your inbox keeps receiving mail through the switch.
Every download reattached
Digital products don't come through Squarespace's CSV, so we rebuild each one and reattach its file. Buyers after launch get the same download as before.
Every image collected
Squarespace can't export images in bulk, so we collect each product and blog image from your live site. Nothing gets swapped for a placeholder.
Posts treated like products
Your posts often bring in more visitors than your product pages. Each one moves with its images, SEO title, and a 301 from the old address.
Honest advice on staying
If Squarespace still covers what you sell, we'll say so on the first call. A move should add real sales tools, not just a new bill.
One price, no hourly meter
You get one price for the whole move before work starts. If we find extra content, we quote it before touching it.

Good fit
Squarespace stores ready for more tools
Your store needs loyalty points, product bundles, or marketplace syncs, and the apps you want are built for Shopify.
Creators with content-heavy sites
Your blog, portfolio, or recipes bring in most of your traffic, and every post needs its URL working after the move.
Owners worried about domain and email
Your domain and business email both run through Squarespace, and you can't afford a day of bounced messages.
Stores selling digital downloads
You sell ebooks, presets, or templates as downloads, and those files need to reach buyers the same way after launch.
Designers moving a client to Shopify
You built a client's Squarespace site, they now need Shopify, and you want the migration handled under your studio's name.
Not a fit
A handful of products
Your budget is under $800 and you sell a handful of physical products. Shopify's CSV import can move them, and we'll show you how on the call.
Store runs on Wix
Your store runs on Wix instead. Our Wix to Shopify Migration page covers Wix product options, blog posts, and domains.
WooCommerce or BigCommerce
You're moving from WooCommerce or BigCommerce. See our WooCommerce to Shopify Migration or BigCommerce to Shopify Migration page for those moves.
Domain pointing only
You only need your domain pointed at an existing Shopify store. Shopify's domain settings handle that without a migration project.

Products, customers, orders, pages, and blog posts all move, with a few Squarespace limits. Its product CSV covers physical and service products but not digital downloads, so we rebuild those by hand. Orders move with a migration app, and since Squarespace can't export images in bulk, we pull each one from your live site.
You can connect the domain or transfer it. Connecting keeps it registered at Squarespace and points its DNS to Shopify, which takes minutes to 48 hours and keeps your email records in place. Transferring means removing the transfer lock in Squarespace, sharing the authorization code, and allowing up to 20 days. Domains registered or changed in the last 60 days must wait.
A Squarespace move with us costs $800, $1,900, or $3,600, depending on how many products you sell, your blog, and the design work. The $800 plan covers up to 250 products, 30 blog posts, and your domain. The $1,900 plan adds every post, digital products, and your current look. The $3,600 plan includes a custom theme plus member or booking features.
A typical Squarespace store launches on Shopify in 2 to 6 weeks. A small store with up to 250 products and a premium theme takes about 2 weeks. Large blogs, digital products, and custom designs push it toward 6. A domain transfer can take up to 20 days, so we start it early or connect instead.
You keep your rankings when every product, page, and post URL redirects to its new home and your titles and descriptions move too. Blog posts matter most on Squarespace sites, since they often bring in more visitors than product pages. We redirect all of them, then watch Search Console through the first month.
We list every product, page, and blog URL from your sitemap and a crawl, then match each to its Shopify address. Squarespace 7.1 product URLs include your store page and a /p/ segment, while Shopify uses /products/, so every product link changes. We load the redirects at launch and check each old URL afterward.
Yes, with extra steps, since Squarespace's product CSV leaves out download products. We recreate digital products in Shopify with a delivery app and reattach each file. Purchased gift cards export as a separate CSV from Squarespace, and we reissue those balances in Shopify so customers keep what they paid for.
We rebuild it, because Squarespace templates can't be exported or installed on Shopify. Starter Move applies your fonts, colors, and logo to a premium Shopify theme. Store and Content Move recreates your current layout closely, and Custom Rebuild designs a fresh Liquid theme from your mockups.
We list your payment methods, Squarespace extensions, and connected tools, then set up the Shopify version of each. Stripe and PayPal checkouts usually become Shopify Payments and PayPal, and email lists move to your marketing app. Member areas and bookings move to Shopify apps on the Custom Rebuild plan, tested before launch.
Before launch, QA covers checkout, taxes, shipping, digital delivery, email records, and spot checks of redirects on phones and desktops. After the switch, we check that your email still delivers and your domain resolves everywhere. For 30 days we monitor orders, 404s, and search traffic and fix whatever surfaces.
