Why is my Shopify migration taking so long?

Why is my Shopify migration taking so long?

Several factors can influence the duration of your eCommerce data migration to Shopify. These include the size of your store (number of products, customers, orders, etc.), the complexity of your data, and API limitations.

Shopify API Limitations and Data Migration Speed

Shopify has implemented limits for orders’ migration. If you are using a trial or Partner development version of Shopify, you might be limited to creating only 5 orders per minute. This restriction can significantly slow down the Shopify data migration process.

How to Speed Up Your Shopify Data Migration

To avoid these delays and ensure a smoother, faster data migration, Cart2Cart strongly recommends upgrading to a paid Shopify plan before initiating the Full Migration.
