Why switch from Shopware to WooCommerce?
WooCommerce combines a powerful shop system with the flexibility of WordPress. You get more control over technology, content, design, and ongoing costs. A switch can make particular sense if you want to:
Reduce costs

Gain more freedom
Be freer in choosing hosting and service providers.
Extend flexibly
Extend your shop flexibly with plugins.
Manage centrally
Manage content and e-commerce centrally in WordPress.
Get a custom design
Need a custom design.
Build for the long term
Replace Shopware with a solution you can keep adapting long-term.
We analyse your existing Shopware shop and show you how the switch to WooCommerce can be carried out safely.
Which Shopware data gets transferred to WooCommerce?
The exact scope depends on your Shopware version, your extensions, and your existing data structure. Depending on the project, we can carry over the following content:
Product data
Product names, descriptions, and SKUs get carried over.
Prices and stock levels
Prices and stock levels get migrated correctly.
Variants and attributes
Options like size, colour, or material work correctly in the new shop too.
Categories
Your existing category structure gets carried over.
Product images and galleries
Images and galleries get assigned to the right products.
Tax classes
Tax classes get mapped correctly in WooCommerce.
Weights and dimensions
Shipping-relevant data like weight and size get carried over.
Custom extra data
Custom product fields and extra data get reviewed and transferred.
We analyse your data structure and clarify which products, customers, orders, and extra data can be carried over.
How it works

Review the shop
Features, checkout, redirects, and display get tested.

Once you approve it, the new WooCommerce shop goes live.
Migrating images and media correctly
Your product images are an important part of the shopping experience. That's why we carry over relevant media files and assign them to the right products and variants.
Correct assignment
Every image gets assigned to the right product, category, or variant.
Clean file paths
Missing files and broken links get detected and reviewed during the migration.
Optimal display
We check how images display on smartphone, tablet, and desktop.

Your data stays fully intact
Customer data, orders, and coupons get migrated to WooCommerce in a structured way — so customer service, accounting, and ongoing promotions keep running seamlessly.
Customer accounts
Names, contact details, and billing and shipping addresses get transferred. Where passwords are involved, we set up a secure process for reissuing them if needed.
Orders
Order status, products, and payment and shipping information stay traceable — for customer service, accounting, and reporting.
Coupons
Discount logic, minimum order values, and validity periods get reviewed and rebuilt to fit properly in WooCommerce.
We check which customer, order, and coupon data exists in your Shopware shop and how it can be transferred cleanly.
Frequently asked
How long does the migration take?
The duration depends on the amount of data, the features you need, and the existing interfaces. After the initial analysis, you get a realistic timeframe.
What does a Shopware to WooCommerce migration cost?
The cost depends on the number of products, variants, customers, and orders, as well as custom features and design requirements. After reviewing your shop, you get a transparent quote.
Can both Shopware 5 and Shopware 6 be migrated?
Yes. We migrate both Shopware 5 and Shopware 6 to WooCommerce. The process gets adapted to the specific version and data structure.
Do products and variants get transferred completely?
Product names, descriptions, prices, stock levels, categories, images, and variants can usually be carried over. We review custom fields and special product types beforehand.
Can customer accounts be carried over?
Yes. Names, contact details, and billing and shipping addresses can be transferred. Whether existing passwords can be carried over depends on the encryption used.
Do past orders get carried over?
Yes. Historical orders can be transferred to WooCommerce. That keeps important information available for customer service, accounting, and internal reporting.
Will my SEO rankings stay intact?
We record important URLs, carry over relevant SEO data, and set up 301 redirects. That reduces the risk of visibility loss. Unchanged rankings can't be guaranteed, though.
Is the migration possible without downtime?
The new shop first gets built in a separate test environment. That lets your existing shop keep running during preparation. The final switchover gets planned to keep interruption as small as possible.
Can the design and features be carried over?
Yes. The existing design can be adapted or modernised. We review the features you need and rebuild them with suitable WooCommerce solutions.
What happens to my existing Shopware shop?
The existing shop stays active during preparation. The switch only happens after a successful test migration, quality review, and your approval.
