Empowering local retailers with tech that works for them.
At Matagora, our team brings over a decade of retail experience. Our mission is to empower independent retailers with the tools they need to compete with big box stores and effectively level out the playing field. One of the biggest challenges we see is staffing — many retailers struggle to maintain consistent, reliable, and properly trained team members to handle back-office tasks, marketing, ecommerce, POS management, and basic tech know-how. That’s why we offer affordable, ecommerce expertise as a service. Retailers no longer have to worry about high turnover, constant retraining, or trying to learn everything themselves. Instead, they can stay focused on what they love: curating great products and delivering an amazing in-store experience — while we handle the rest. And since it’s a simple expense, it’s easy to plan for and write off, too.
Matagora provides white-glove Shopify migration and POS setup services, focusing on zero downtime and on-budget migrations for retailers. They position themselves as top Shopify partners backed by Y Combinator, with hands-on support from real humans and a track record of rapid migrations.
Full Shopify migration from any POS/ecommerce system (e.g., Lightspeed, Square, WooCommerce) to Shopify, including complete data migration (products, customers, orders, inventory), POS setup and optimization, staff training and go-live support, and custom workflow configurations. They offer a fixed timeline (typically 14 days), dedicated guidance from a human-led team, ongoing post-migration support, and a guarantee of zero downtime during the transition.
Who it’s for: Independent retailers and local retailers looking to move to Shopify, requiring integration of POS and ecommerce, with emphasis on maintaining uptime, data integrity, and tailored workflows.
