WooCommerce 10.0 Migration Solution
Transfer Brands for WooCommerce provides the missing link that WooCommerce doesn’t offer – a safe, reliable way to migrate all your existing brand attributes (both taxonomy-based and custom) to the new WooCommerce brand taxonomy without losing any data.
What’s New in Version 2.7.0
- Full WooCommerce 10.0.4 Compatibility: Tested and optimized for the latest WooCommerce version

Why You Need This Plugin
Without a migration solution, your existing brand data will remain separate from WooCommerce’s brand system. You would need to manually recreate all your brands and reassign them to products – a time-consuming process prone to errors and data loss.
Our plugin provides an automated, risk-free migration path that:
- Preserves all brand relationships and hierarchies
- Transfers brand images automatically with dual meta key support
- Creates complete backups with rollback capability
- Shows real-time progress with detailed statistics
- Handles stores of any size with batch processing
Fully Compatible with WooCommerce HPOS
This plugin is fully compatible with WooCommerce’s High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS), ensuring your store can benefit from improved performance while safely managing your brand data. No compatibility warnings or issues when using the latest WooCommerce features.
Why Convert Brand Attributes to a Taxonomy?
Using a proper taxonomy for brands instead of attributes provides several benefits:
- Dedicated brand archive pages for better SEO
- Enhanced filtering options in your store
- Ability to add brand logos and descriptions
- Simplified brand management in the WordPress admin
- Better integration with themes and other plugins
The Transfer Process
The migration process is straightforward and completely safe:
- Select your source brand attribute in the settings
- Run the “Analyze Brands” function to preview changes
- Start the transfer with a single click
- Watch the real-time progress as products are processed
- Optionally, remove the old attribute data when you’re satisfied
The plugin works with both taxonomy-based attributes (pa_brand) and custom product attributes, ensuring all your brand information is properly migrated.
