Done-for-you backups and exports for Shopify
Shopify Backup Store Data Automation, Set Up Once, Trusted Every Day
Shopify backup store data automation protects the things you cannot easily rebuild: products, customers, orders, pages, blog posts, theme code and settings, saved on a schedule to somewhere you control and tested by actually restoring. Shopify does not provide a full automatic backup, so merchants use apps such as Rewind or scheduled exports such as Matrixify. We choose, schedule and test a restore, from $290.
- Backup scope listed: products, customers, orders, pages, blogs, theme and settings
- Daily scheduled backups to storage you control
- A real restore test, not just a backup log
- Test log and a recorded handover

Our track record
Over 450 Stores Built Since 2015. Here Is What That Means for Your Automation.
Experience shows in small decisions: which event to trigger on, when to retry, what to log. Those decisions keep backups and exports calm and trouble-free.

Who this is for
Six Kinds of Store That Book Shopify Backup Store Data Automation
A backup you have never restored is a hope. These are the cases we build for.
You are a good fit if
- Your orders come through Shopify
- You know roughly how the task runs today
- You would rather pay once than by the hour
- You can review a test run with us
Owners with no backup
Shopify does not provide a full automatic backup. We set one up.
Stores that need restore, not just export
Rewind-style apps aim at restoring; export files restore by re-importing.
Teams wanting copies in their own storage
Scheduled exports can go to FTP, Sheets, Dropbox or Drive.
Owners with large catalogues
One review says Rewind can lag with big catalogues. We test timing.
Stores before a big change
A manual backup before a theme or catalogue change.
Owners comparing costs
Prices differ between sources, so we check current plans.

What we build and check
How Shopify Backup Store Data Automation Runs, Step by Step
Every automation follows the same path. An event arrives, the rules decide what applies, the action runs and the result is logged where your operations team can see it. The map shows the pieces we build and test before handover.

Six Stages From Brief to Live Automation
Six stages, in order. Nothing touches live orders until you have seen it work on a copy, and your calculator choices decide how long each stage takes.
- 1
Brief and rules
The brief covers how backups and exports works now, who is involved and what goes wrong. Each rule is written in plain words, such as: when a schedule runs, then export products, customers and orders to storage.
- 2
Access and platform
Access is narrow and approved by you. We suggest a platform, state what it costs each month and prove the connection with a live read.
- 3
Map the data
Export type, file name, date and location are listed and matched, formats are verified, and blanks get a written rule.
- 4
Build in a copy
The workflow is built against test data, never your live orders. You see the plan and, where useful, a recorded run.
- 5
Test on real cases
We run a scheduled backup, a pre-change snapshot and a restore test, then refunds and edits, and verify each outcome against what the store shows.
- 6
Go live and hand over
On your approval the workflow is switched on and monitored through its first runs, and you receive notes, a diagram and a quick video tour.

Inside every project
Six Safeguards Built Into Every Automation
Automations act on live orders and customer data, so mistakes are costly. These practices come with every package and explain why a fixed fee can still be a careful one.
Plain scope, two revision rounds
You know the cost up front. Two revision rounds cover changes within scope, which keeps tweaks from becoming extra invoices.
A written definition of done
A workflow is finished when it handles a scheduled backup, a pre-change snapshot and a restore test correctly and the results are logged.
Narrow access, in your name
We request only the permissions the workflow needs, and you own every account.
Failures raise a flag
Failed runs notify a named person with the order and the cause, so silence cannot hide a problem.
Build in a copy, never live
The workflow is built and tested against test data. Your live orders and exports are untouched until you approve.
Counts compared, not assumed
Once past orders are processed, we count both sides, so missing or doubled records show up early.

Why Store Design Expert
Why Owners Choose Our Shopify Backup Store Data Automation Over Doing It Alone
Most of this job is clicking, and you could do it. People hire us because the unglamorous parts, ids, timing and edge cases, decide whether automation helps or hurts.
Notes a colleague can follow
We document what happens when and which settings we picked, so the next developer starts informed.
4.9+ from verified clients
You can read verified client reviews on this page before paying, so past results are visible.
A direct line to the builder
You talk to the person working on your workflow, and questions about a rule or field get a plain answer.
Experience since 2015
We have launched more than 450 Shopify stores since 2015 and met most of the quirks that trip up automation.
Tested on your real cases
We check against your own cases, like a scheduled backup, a pre-change snapshot and a restore test.
We live inside Shopify
Orders, refunds, edits and metafields are daily work for us. That is a different skill from knowing an automation tool's menus.
What we need to get started
What to Prepare Before We Start Your Backups and Exports Automation
The list is short. Most owners have everything ready in a day.
Approve a collaborator request
If the store is live, send us its address and approve our request. Ownership stays with you, our role is limited, and removal takes one click.
Starting from nothing? We build first
We can assemble the store in our own Shopify Partner account, set up the workflow there, then hand the whole store over by ownership transfer. You pick a Shopify plan only at the end.
Or share a staff login
Sharing a staff login is possible. The collaborator route is safer, though: one click removes it and no password is passed around.
Access to the other tools
Invite us to the tools involved or let us set up accounts with your email. In both cases you keep the owner role.
Examples of the work today
Tell us where recent cases live, or send a handful. Real examples beat assumptions.
A decision-maker
We need one person to approve the rules and the test, plus a ruling for when two rules clash.
Your Shopify owner password and card details never reach us. Changes are made in a copy, and we note every setting we touch.
