Why Shopify Products Don't Import Directly to Shift4Shop

Field Name Differences

Shopify uses "Title", "Variant Price", "Variant Grams", "Variant SKU". Shift4Shop uses "name", "price", "weight", "id". Without field mapping, Shift4Shop import fails or creates incomplete products.

Weight Unit Conversion

Shopify exports weight in grams (metric). Shift4Shop uses pounds (imperial). Direct import creates shipping calculation errors with incorrect weights.

Image Column Structure

Shopify exports multiple rows for products with multiple images. Shift4Shop expects image1, image2, image3, image4 columns in single row. Without proper distribution, only first image imports.

What This Tool Does

We automatically transform your Shopify export: - Row Aggregation: Multiple Shopify rows (same Handle) → one Shift4Shop row - Field Mapping: Shopify column names → exact Shift4Shop field names - Weight Conversion: Grams to pounds (÷ 453.592) - Image Distribution: Multiple Image Src rows → image1/2/3/4 columns - Price Mapping: Compare At → retail, Variant Price → price - Status Conversion: Published TRUE/FALSE → hide false/true (inverted) Your Shift4Shop import succeeds with properly formatted product data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your data never leaves your device. All files are processed entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript - no data is stored on our servers or sent anywhere. There's no account to hack, no database storing your files, and no API connections to your bank or accounting software. You upload, convert, download, and we forget it immediately.
No payment or signup required. You can upload your file, see a free preview of the conversion results, and verify everything looks correct before paying anything. If it doesn't work for your files, you haven't wasted any money. We only charge when you're satisfied and ready to download the final converted file.
You can, but free scripts and AI often miss edge cases that break real-world data: missing SKUs, currency formatting quirks, tax calculation errors, or date format mismatches. We have battle-tested validators specifically designed for accounting software imports that catch these issues before they corrupt your books.
