NP SoftTech Shopify FAQ
Migration
Can we keep selling on the old platform until Shopify is ready?
Yes. Most migrations run in parallel until cutover. We plan a freeze or sync strategy for late product and order changes so the new store does not launch stale.

What helps us get specific
Share your store URL if you have one, the project type, markets you sell into, known apps or integrations, and any hard deadline. That context turns this FAQ into a useful next step instead of generic advice.
Common mistakes to avoid
Moving URLs without redirect plans
Broken links and lost search equity are common when cutover ignores URL mapping.
