Migrate from ShopBase to BurgerShop
This guide explains how to migrate your product data from ShopBase to BurgerShop. You can export your products from ShopBase as a CSV file, then import the file directly into BurgerShop.
Unlike migrations that require sellers to edit or convert the exported template before importing, BurgerShop supports direct import from the ShopBase export file. This helps you move your product catalog faster and reduces manual setup work.
Note
Before you start, make sure you have created a BurgerShop store and have access to your ShopBase admin. If you need help during the migration process, contact the BurgerShop Support team.

Before you start
Before migrating your products, review your ShopBase store and decide which products you want to move to BurgerShop.
You should check the following information in ShopBase:
- Product names and descriptions
- Product images
- Product variants
- Prices
- SKUs
- Inventory quantities
- Product types or categories
This helps you confirm that the exported data is complete before importing it into BurgerShop.
Step 1: Export products from ShopBase
You can export your ShopBase products from the Products section in your ShopBase admin.
Steps:
- From your ShopBase admin, go to Products.
- Click All products.
- Click Export.
- In the export popup, choose the products that you want to export:
- Current page: Export only the products displayed on the current page.
- All products: Export your full product catalog.
- Selected products: Export only the products you selected before opening the export popup.
- Choose the CSV format:
- CSV for Excel, Numbers, or other spreadsheet programs
- Plain CSV file
- Click Export.
- Download and save the exported CSV file to your computer.
Tip
If you want to migrate your full product catalog, select All products before exporting.
Step 2: Import products into BurgerShop
After exporting the CSV file from ShopBase, you can import it directly into BurgerShop. You do not need to edit the file template before importing.
Steps:
- From your BurgerShop admin, go to Products.
- Click Import.
- Upload the CSV file exported from ShopBase.
- Review the import preview.
- Click Import products to start the import.
- Wait until the import process is complete.
The processing time depends on the number of products, variants, and images included in the file.
Step 3: Review imported products
After the import is complete, review your products in BurgerShop to make sure the information was imported correctly.
Check the following details:
- Product title
- Product description
- Product images
- Price
- Compare-at price, if applicable
- Variants and options
- SKU
- Inventory quantity
- Product status
- Product category or collection
If any product information is missing or incorrect, you can update it manually from your BurgerShop admin.
Step 4: Organize your product catalog
After importing your products, organize them so customers can browse your store easily.
You can review and update:
- Product categories
- Collections
- Product tags
- Product visibility
- Navigation menu
- Featured products
A well-organized catalog helps customers find products faster and improves the shopping experience.
Step 5: Optional: Migrate product reviews
If your ShopBase store includes product reviews, you can export and import them into BurgerShop. Follow this article to move product review
After importing reviews, check that each review is connected to the correct product and displays properly on your storefront.
If your review data does not import correctly, contact BurgerShop Support for assistance.
Step 6: Set up your storefront
After your store data has been imported, customize your BurgerShop storefront so it matches your brand.
You can review and update:
- Store logo
- Brand colors
- Homepage layout
- Product page layout
- Navigation menu
- Footer content
- Store policies
Make sure your storefront is clear, easy to navigate, and ready for customers before going live.
Step 7: Set up shipping, taxes, and payments
Before accepting orders, configure the main settings required to operate your BurgerShop store.
Shipping
Set up your shipping areas, delivery methods, shipping fees, and fulfillment process. Review your shipping settings carefully to avoid undercharging or overcharging customers.
Taxes
Configure tax settings based on your business location and the regions where you sell. If you are unsure which tax settings apply to your store, consult a tax professional.
Payments
Set up your payment methods so customers can complete checkout successfully. After enabling payment options, review your checkout settings and store policies.
Step 8: Place test orders
Before launching your store, place test orders to make sure the checkout flow works correctly.
You should test:
- Successful payment
- Failed payment
- Order confirmation
- Refund or cancellation
- Fulfillment process
- Customer notification emails
Testing helps you understand the customer experience and identify any issues before real customers place orders.
Step 9: Set up your domain
If you already have a domain for your ShopBase store, you can connect or transfer it to your BurgerShop store.
Before updating your domain settings, you need to transfer domain’s permisstion from 3rd party to Coulfare
After the domain is connected, check that your storefront loads correctly and that important pages are accessible.
Step 10: Review SEO settings
To help maintain search visibility after migration, review your SEO settings before launching your BurgerShop store.
You should check:
- Product page titles
- Meta descriptions
- Collection or category URLs
- Important page URLs
- Redirects from old WooCommerce pages
All BurgerShop stores automatically generate a sitemap.xml file that contains links to all your products, primary product image, pages, collections, and blog posts. This file is used by search engines such as Google and Bing to index your site so that your store’s pages display in search results.
Submitting your sitemap files to Google Search Console helps Google find and index pages on your site
