The client is a globally renowned professional photographer and mentor who has worked with leading brands across photography and cinematography. With a growing community of learners, he built an online education platform offering a series of photography courses designed specifically for amateurs eager to improve their skills.
As his student base expanded to 26,000+ learners with 49,000+ orders across multiple subscription products, scalability, stability, and seamless user experience became essential — setting the foundation for the migration project that followed.
"Migrating 26,000+ students and nearly 50,000 subscription records from Infusionsoft to WooCommerce was one of the most data-sensitive projects we’ve handled. The biggest challenge was ensuring every customer ID, card ID, and renewal date mapped perfectly without disrupting ongoing payments. We built a batch-wise validation workflow to catch issues early, and by the time we went live, renewal cycles were syncing flawlessly. Seeing the entire subscription system run smoothly at this scale made all the effort completely worth it."

The Challenge
Before the migration, the client was experiencing several issues that made it difficult to manage his fast-growing eLearning platform.
These challenges made it clear that staying on the old platform would eventually impact the student experience and overall business growth.
To ensure a smooth and disruption-free migration to WooCommerce Subscriptions, we followed a carefully planned, staged, and fully validated process.
1
All migration activities were first executed on a staging site provided by the client. This ensured that live students, subscriptions, and payments remained unaffected throughout the process.
2
A comprehensive CSV file was prepared with all subscription data—26,000+ records. Each field was meticulously mapped from Infusionsoft to WooCommerce Subscriptions and double- and triple-checked to prevent errors in payment cycles, customer IDs, and card IDs.
3
To minimize risk, the migration was done in multiple stages:
One test subscription was uploaded first to confirm perfect mapping.
Once validated, each batch of users and subscriptions was migrated step by step.
This ensured total accuracy at every stage of the process.
4
A multi-level testing workflow ensured that everything functioned correctly, including:
Validating Customer IDs and Card IDs in the payments dashboard
Verifying scheduled payment actions in WooCommerce
Performing real subscription test purchases
Processing scheduled actions early to confirm future payment reliability
Ensuring next payment dates were set correctly for every subscription
5
Once all batches were migrated and thoroughly tested, the system was synchronized with accurate next billing dates and made ready for real-time use on the live site.
