*Note:

• To use the migration tool, you will need your Shift4Shop store URL. Find it under Settings > General > Store Settings, then click Manage Domain & Store Url. Use the URL in the Primary Domain or Custom Domain section. If you've transferred your domain to Shift4Shop, use that URL for migration.
• If you are going to migrate orders, it's highly recommended to turn off all email notifications under Settings > Store Settings > Checkout > Order Notification.
