## Questions about importing

### Can I move my store off BigCommerce?

BigCommerce lets you export your products as a spreadsheet, but not your store as a website. The import rebuilds every page, product and category from your public address as real files, which you can download as a zip at any time.

### What happens to my products?

Every product becomes a page of its own at the same address, with its photos, price, options and description, and every category page lists its products. You can also keep them as a list in the Database, just ask the AI.

### Does checkout keep working?

Payments and orders are not imported. Buy buttons lead to the checkout or payment link you choose, such as your current store or a payment provider, and the AI sets them up with you.

### Are customer accounts and orders imported?

No. Accounts, orders and inventory stay in BigCommerce. The import brings over what visitors see in your store: pages, products, categories, blog posts, images and texts.

### Does it work with my domain?

Yes. When you connect your domain to Website, the pages open at the same addresses as on BigCommerce, so old links and Google results keep working.

### Can I import a mybigcommerce.com address?

Yes, as long as the store is live and not in maintenance mode. You can also paste your own domain.
