Redirect mapping

From Big Cartel URLs to Shopify URLs

Big Cartel product and category URLs change on Shopify. We export your full URL list and set up redirects before launch, so links in your bio, posts and Google results keep working.

  • /product/name → /products/name
  • /category/name → /collections/name
  • /page-name → /pages/page-name
  • Old image links replaced with Shopify CDN images
  • Redirects tested before the domain switch

Client reviews

What store owners say

Real reviews from Shopify store owners we’ve worked with.

If I could give 6 stars, I would!

If I could give 6 stars, I would! The service was exceptional and unbelievably quick. They understood exactly what I needed and set to it straightaway. Before I knew it, everything was fixed. Just brilliant. Will be back when I next need something, which I definitely will, and I wouldn't consider anywhere else. Many thanks once again.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Ask us anything
Is Shopify harder to use than Big Cartel?

Shopify has more features, but everyday tasks feel familiar. We set everything up and walk you through it before launch.

Can I run limited drops and pre-orders?

Yes, with Shopify apps for pre-orders, launch timers and purchase limits.

Will my domain move?

Yes. We connect your domain to Shopify on launch day without touching your email records.

Can customer passwords move?

No — customers set a new password from an invite email and keep their order history.

Platforms we migrate from

Migrating from another platform?

Same fixed prices, same careful process — tailored to how each platform stores its data.
