When’s the right time to migrate?

Yesterday. Magento 1 has been EOL since June 2020, every additional day is a CVE exposure and a PCI-compliance risk. Practical timing:

  • If your last PCI audit failed or is upcoming: start now. Most processors (Stripe, Braintree, Adyen) flag M1 as non-compliant in 2026.
  • If you’re re-platforming anyway: M2 + Hyvä is the cheapest combined upgrade path.
  • If you’re > 6 months from Black Friday: you have time for a comfortable migration with two months of post-launch stabilisation.
  • If you’re < 3 months from a peak season: book the audit now, schedule the migration for January.

The longer you wait, the more your M1 stack drifts from anything modern. Book the free audit, we’ll tell you honestly when to start.
