Shopware migration
Your move to Shopware 6.
Planned step by step.
We support your shop relaunch, taking account of data, functionality, integrations and existing search content.
Our starting point
The move starts with your existing shop.
Products, customer accounts, order history, content, extensions and search engine URLs: we assess what needs to be retained and how it will be represented in the new shop.
Migration paths
From your current system to Shopware 6.
Shopware 5 → Shopware 6
A platform change with a new architecture. Themes, extensions, data structures and interfaces are assessed individually.
Magento, OXID or other systems
Export options, data quality and business-specific exceptions determine the migration path. Existing integrations are considered too.
A verifiable process
Five stages with clear deliverables.
- 01
Analysis & audit
Inventory the existing shop, extensions, data and URLs. Define scope and acceptance criteria.
- 02
Prepare data migration
Map fields, clean data and perform a test import.
- 03
Build the shop & integrations
Implement the theme, functionality, payments and shipping. Connect existing systems as needed; a new PIM is not required for migration.
- 04
Test & incorporate changes
Accept data and ordering processes. Prepare delta migration and the switchover window.
- 05
Launch & follow-up checks
Check redirects, availability and processes. Monitor search visibility and errors afterwards.
Preserve visibility
URLs and search content belong in the migration plan.
Inventory existing URLs, preserve relevant content and map required redirects precisely.
Metadata, canonicals, language versions, internal links and sitemaps are also checked. Rankings depend on several factors; stable rankings cannot be guaranteed.

Questions before your project starts
What determines migration duration?
Data volume and quality, custom extensions, interfaces and rollout determine the effort. After the audit, we can create a reliable plan.
Can the existing shop stay online during preparation?
Parallel preparation and a later delta import are part of planning. The required switchover time is determined for the specific system.
Before switchover
How we assess readiness for launch.
| Test area | Specific acceptance question |
|---|---|
| Data | Have test products, variants, customer data and agreed order histories been transferred correctly? |
| Purchasing | Do representative orders work, including payment, shipping and handover to downstream systems? |
| Findability | Are relevant old URLs mapped to appropriate new destinations and internal links updated? |
| Switchover | Are the data freeze, final import, responsibilities and fallback plan agreed? |
Project evidence
Compass & SEALAND24: relaunching 15 shops.
The published story describes the move to Shopware 6, a new design and the involvement of several departments. It illustrates why a migration needs to combine technology, design and ongoing maintenance.
