EDITOR’S NOTE 07/28/15: We have extended this offer through Monday, August 31, 2015. The coupon codes to receive a free site migration plus a 20 percent discount on annual plans and monthly plans will remain the same.
Earlier this week, we lit the fuse on WP Engine Automated Migration, a solution that eliminates the complexity and time required to migrate a WordPress site to the WP Engine platform. To celebrate, we launched a limited offer of free site migration.
The response was explosive; so much so that we’re extending the free migration offer to include all WP Engine shared plans, and adding a generous discount to go along with it (queue the fireworks).
SIGN UP NOW FOR FREE MIGRATION PLUS 20 PERCENT OFF FOR ANNUAL PLANS OR MONTHLY PLANS
Starting today, all new annual and monthly Personal, Professional, and Business plans will receive free site migrations via the WP Engine Automated Migration solution and a 20 percent discount. This free migration promotion and sale will run through Friday, July 31. (Editor’s Note: this offer has been extended through Monday, August 31, 2015.)
For new annual plans, that means a free migration plus 20 percent off the total cost (just use coupon code FreeMoveA). And don’t forget, annual plans automatically receive two months of service for free, so you receive a free migration, two free months plus 20 percent off the cost of the plan.
New monthly plans will receive a free migration plus 20 percent off your first month (just use coupon code FreeMoveM).

I love the discount, but no loyalty to current customers? Is there no discount for current customers who are already paying you?
Hi Dustin, at WP Engine we love all our customers. Thank you for being a customer. While this offer is only for new signups, existing customers can request to use the automated migration tool. Our awesome support team is at the ready to help you get started, just open a ticket and ask to use the automated migration plugin.
Will the 20% off be applied to the suckers (like myself) that migrated early … causing the said explosion?
Hi Paul, we love that you jumped onboard to try out our automated migration tool. We hope your automated migration went smoothly. While we were not planning to extend the initial promotion with an additional discount, to show our gratitude for choosing WP Engine we are happy to take care of you. I’ve provided your account information to one of our support managers, you should receive a response from our team via ticket shortly. We’re thrilled you chose WP Engine!
Is the 20% discount for life for only for 1 year? Thanks.
Hi Rhonda,
You are correct, the discount is for the 1st year. We hope you decide to join us!
Cheers,
Taylor
I’m looking to switch to WPEngine and have a handful of sites I would want to migrate under a Professional plan. Does the free migration until the end of August cover all the migrations I want to do (minimum of 3 sites, maximum of 6 at this point) or only one of them?
Alison, we are thrilled you’re joining us, welcome to WP Engine! You can use our Automated Migration plugin to migrate all your sites to WP Engine. Instructions to use the plugin can be found inside your user portal under “site migration.” Remember, if you have any questions our support team is always here to help.
Wp Engine’s Support Can Help Me In Case My Webstie Is Currently Down And I Can Not Access Wp-Admin To Install Migration Plugin ?
Hi Tony,
Unfortunately we cannot help troubleshoot a site down issue on another host. Our Automated migration tool will not work with websites that are not publicly accessible from the internet. However, you can contact our support team to evaluate the best way to get your site migrated to WP Engine, despite not having access to WP-Admin. We do have tools like our Migration Checklist that can help in situations like this where you don’t have a live site to migrate.
