PrestaShop 1.6 to 9 migration: move your 1.6 or 1.7 shop to PrestaShop 9

Your shop is still selling, but every month it costs you more: a PHP version with no security patches, modules that no longer get updates and payment gateways warning you they’ll stop working. We move it to the latest version with everything that’s yours inside, without closing it for a single day.

Why not wait any longer

PHP with no patches

PrestaShop 1.6 runs on PHP versions that no longer receive security patches. Every month that goes by, your shop becomes an easier target.

Payments and shipping that break

Payment gateways and carriers only maintain their modules for current versions. The day they change something, your shop can’t take payments or ship orders.

Faster, and Google notices

The current version loads faster and works better on mobile, which is how almost everyone buys from you.

What we bring over

We install the latest version of PrestaShop from scratch, on an up-to-date server, and bring everything that’s yours across.

  • Your catalogue

    Products, combinations, categories, features and images, just as you have them.

  • Your customers

    Their accounts and addresses, so they keep buying as they always have.

  • Your orders

    The full history, with their statuses and invoices.

  • Your Google rankings

    We keep the same URLs and, where they change, we add redirects so Google doesn’t lose track of you.

  • Your modules

    Each one moves to its current version or to an equivalent. If one doesn’t exist for the new version, we tell you beforehand, with a price.

  • Your brand

    1.6 themes don’t work on the new version: we install a current one with your logo, your colours and your photos.

How we do it

  1. A closed price

    You tell us about your shop: version, modules, theme and amount of data.

  2. Fixed price

    We send you what gets migrated, what gets replaced, the price and the date.

  3. Test copy

    We set up the new shop on a copy and you check it with your real data.

  4. Switch without closing

    We bring over the latest orders and point your domain to the new shop.

How much does a PrestaShop migration cost?

From $799 for a shop with fewer than 1,000 products and few modules, with a new theme adapted to your brand and about 15 days of work. With more products, custom modules or a new design, we give you a fixed price within 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions

Can I go straight from 1.6 to 9?

Yes. There’s no need to go through 1.7 and 8: we install the current version from scratch and move your data across. It’s cleaner and doesn’t drag along the leftovers of old versions.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

Not if it’s done right: we keep the URLs of your products and categories and redirect the ones that change, so Google takes your customers to the new page.

Do I have to close my shop?

No. We work on a copy while your shop keeps selling, and on switch day we bring over the latest orders before pointing the domain.

Will my customers have to create a new account?

No. Their accounts and addresses move to the new shop.

Will my current theme work?

No: 1.6 themes don’t work on the new versions. We install a current one with your brand or, if you prefer, we create a custom design.

How long does it take?

For a small shop, about 15 working days from your go-ahead. For bigger ones, the date comes with the price.
