Home / Why merchants migrate / payment provider blocked
Use case 02 / 21

Blocked by your payment provider, not by your customers.

Gateways change risk appetite without warning. A provider that happily onboarded you two years ago suddenly "can no longer support your business model" — and everything wired around it (checkout, saved payment methods, subscription billing) starts failing. Rewiring an old store in place is fragile; standing up a clean store around the new provider and migrating everything into it is usually faster and safer.

Sound familiar?

How a migration solves it

We copy the entire store — catalog, customers with consents, order history with tracking numbers, content, redirects, markets and theme — into the new store while the old one keeps trading. Subscription plans migrate too; for active subscriber payment methods we coordinate the official processor-to-processor transfer. Cut over only when the new checkout has processed real test transactions.

Play it straightA migration moves your data — it is not a way around platform or processor rules. You remain responsible for fixing whatever triggered the issue, choosing a payment provider that accepts your business category, and complying with Shopify's Terms of Service and your new provider's rules. What we make sure of: none of your catalog, customers, content or SEO gets lost in the move.
Everything moves. The same automated pipeline every time:
  • Products, variants, images, SKUs, cost
  • Customers, addresses, marketing consents
  • Full order history + tracking numbers
  • Collections — smart rules & manual
  • Blogs, pages, navigation menus
  • 301 redirects & SEO meta fields
  • Metafields, metaobjects, files
  • Discounts, gift cards, reviews
  • Markets, currencies, translations
  • Your live theme, scanned & pushed

How the migration runs

  1. Book & pay — fixed price, secure Stripe checkout. The order form unlocks immediately after payment.
  2. Submit your stores — domains and details in the order form; then provide revocable API tokens in your customer area (we never ask for your Shopify password).
  3. We migrate everything — your live store keeps selling throughout; it is only ever read from.
  4. Verified twice — the entire migration re-runs and must change nothing; you get the count-matched verification report before any cutover.

Frequently asked

Will my live store go down while migrating after payment provider blocked?

No. The migration only reads from your current store — it keeps selling the entire time. Everything is written to the new store, and traffic moves only when you approve the verification report.

What data moves in a payment provider blocked migration?

Everything: products with variants, SKUs and images, customers with addresses and marketing consents, full order history with tracking numbers, collections, blogs, pages, menus, 301 redirects, metafields, discounts, gift cards, reviews, markets, translations and your live theme.

How long does a Shopify to Shopify migration take?

Most stores complete in 2–5 business days including the second-pass verification, depending on your package. Very large stores are scheduled after we see your store's counts — before anything runs.

How much does it cost?

Fixed one-time packages from $247 (Standard DIY) to $797 (Enterprise) — no per-record metering. The migration order form unlocks immediately after checkout.
