Received an invitation to have your store moved?

Amaze offered complimentary store migration to a limited group of eligible Spring creators. If you received and accepted this invitation, the migration details in your email apply to you. The FAQs below describe the standard transition process for all other creators.

01What is Amaze Commerce?

Amaze Commerce is built to help you turn what you’ve already created into a stronger creator business. Beyond your storefront, tools like Creator Brand Analysis help you better understand your audience. Your new storefront is just the beginning.

02What’s the timeline for the Spring shutdown?

Spring is shutting down in stages. Spring stores and selling tools will be turned off on October 28, 2026, and the Creator Dashboard is currently scheduled to close on November 5, 2026. We’ll communicate any changes to these dates by email and on this page.

New product creation is off
You can no longer create new products on Spring. Your existing store and listings will remain live until October 28. To create and launch new products, head to Amaze Commerce.

October 28, 2026 — Spring stores and selling tools shut down
On October 28, Spring stores will stop receiving traffic and accepting new orders. Storefront management and listing tools will also be disabled.

Before this date, make sure to download any artwork, images, listing details, or other store information you want to keep.

The Creator Dashboard will remain available for a limited time, focused on payouts and essential account actions.

At that point, you’ll still be able to:
• View payout balances and payout history
• Add or update payout account information
• Complete payout confirmation steps
• Provide required tax information
• Request eligible payouts
• Check payout status

November 5, 2026 (tentative) — Creator Dashboard closes
The Creator Dashboard is currently expected to close on November 5. Once it closes, creators with eligible payout balances will use a separate website to view balances, request payouts, and track payout status until all eligible balances have been distributed.

Custom domain transfers
If you purchased a custom domain through Spring, domain renewals will continue until October 28. A self-service domain transfer tool will become available when renewals end, allowing you to transfer your domain to another registrar.

We'll send instructions when the transfer tool is ready. No action is required before then.

03Why can't I launch new products on Spring?

Spring is being retired, so new product creation has been turned off as the first phase of the shutdown. Your existing store and listings stay live, and you can keep managing them for now.

04Will all of my products move over?

No. Your Spring products will not automatically transfer to Amaze Commerce. If you'd like to continue selling your products, you'll need to recreate them in your new Amaze Commerce store.

We recommend downloading any artwork, product images, and listing details you want to keep before Spring's selling tools shut down on October 28, 2026.

05Do I have to rebuild my store myself?

Yes. You'll need to create an Amaze Commerce account, set up your new storefront, and recreate any Spring products you want to continue selling.

Your existing Spring store, products, and artwork will not automatically transfer to Amaze Commerce.

You can get started by visiting Amaze Commerce.

06How much does it cost to move my store?

Creating an Amaze Commerce account and setting up your storefront is free. You'll need to recreate any Spring products you want to continue selling, as products and store information won't automatically transfer.

Amaze Commerce offers a free plan to get started, with optional paid plans that provide access to additional features and tools.

07What happens to my Spring store after I move to Amaze Commerce?

Your Spring store will remain active until October 28, 2026, when Spring stores will be shut down and stop accepting traffic and new orders.

Creating a new store on Amaze Commerce does not automatically transfer your Spring products or redirect your existing Spring store URL. You'll need to recreate the products you want to continue selling and update the links in your social media profiles, website, and other promotional channels to point to your new Amaze Commerce store.

We recommend sharing your new store URL with your customers before October 28 to help them find you after Spring shuts down.

08What happens to Spring accounts after the shutdown?

Spring stores and selling tools will be shut down on October 28, 2026. After this date, you’ll no longer be able to access your storefront, manage listings, or accept new orders.

The Spring Creator Dashboard will remain available for a limited time to manage payouts and essential account information. It is currently expected to close on November 5, 2026, though this date is subject to change.

After the Creator Dashboard closes, creators with eligible payout balances will be able to use a separate website to view their balances, request payouts, and track payout status until all eligible funds have been distributed. We'll provide access instructions before the Creator Dashboard closes.

09I use a custom domain with Spring. What happens to it?

I purchased a custom domain through Spring — what happens to it?
Spring will stop renewing custom domains on October 28, 2026, when Spring stores shut down.

If you purchased your domain through Spring, you'll need to transfer it to another registrar before its registration expires.

A self-service domain transfer tool will be available starting October 28. We'll email you instructions when the tool is ready.

I purchased my domain somewhere else and connected it to Spring — what happens to it?
Your domain will remain registered with your existing registrar. The Spring shutdown does not cancel your domain or transfer its ownership.

However, your domain will no longer direct customers to an active Spring storefront after October 28, 2026.

If you want to continue using your domain, you'll need to update its DNS settings through your domain registrar to point to another website or storefront, such as your new Amaze Commerce store.

We recommend making these changes before October 28 to minimize disruption.

10Will I keep my same store name and URL?

You can use the same store name when creating your new Amaze Commerce storefront, subject to the platform's naming requirements.

Your Spring store URL will not automatically transfer to Amaze Commerce. You'll need to choose a URL for your new storefront. If your preferred URL is available, you can use it. Otherwise, you'll need to select a different one.

Once your store is set up, you can update your Store Name and Store URL in your Amaze Commerce settings, subject to availability.

11What happens to orders that have already been placed?

Orders placed before Spring stops accepting new orders on October 28, 2026, will continue to be processed and fulfilled as normal, even after Spring stores shut down.

Any eligible earnings from these orders will remain payable through Spring's payout process. After the Creator Dashboard closes, you'll be able to access a separate website to view your eligible balance, request payouts, and track payout status.

12What should I do before October 28?

Before Spring stores and selling tools shut down on October 28, 2026, we recommend that you:
• Save your store assets: Download any artwork, product images, listing details, or other information you want to keep.
• Set up your Amaze Commerce store: Create an account and recreate any Spring products you want to continue selling. Products will not transfer automatically.
• Update your store links: Replace your Spring store URL with your new Amaze Commerce store URL in your social media profiles, website, and other promotional channels.
• Prepare your custom domain: If you connected a domain purchased through another registrar, update its DNS settings to point to your new storefront or website.

After October 28, you'll no longer be able to access your Spring storefront or manage existing product listings. The Creator Dashboard will remain available for a limited time to manage payouts and essential account information.

13What happens to my Spring payout balance?

Your existing Spring payout balance and payout history will be automatically transferred to the Spring Account Center, where you can review your earnings and request any eligible remaining payouts.

The migration is expected to be completed by 8:00 PM ET on Friday, November 6, 2026. Your payout information may be temporarily unavailable while the migration is in progress.

14How do I access the Spring Account Center?

Once the migration is complete, you can sign in using the email address associated with your Spring account.

1. Visit the Spring Account Center.
2. Enter the email address associated with your Spring account.
3. Check your email for a one-time verification code.
4. Enter the code to sign in.

Once signed in, you'll be able to view your remaining payout balance, review your payout history, and request eligible payouts.

15How do I request my remaining payout balance?

You can request a payout through the Spring Account Center once your available balance reaches $25.

Before requesting a payout, you may be asked to provide or resubmit tax information, including your Social Security Number (SSN) or other applicable taxpayer identification number. If additional information is required, you'll be prompted to provide it securely through the Spring Account Center.

16What if I already requested a payout through Spring?

If you submitted a payout request through the original Spring dashboard that was never sent, it will appear in your payout history with a status of Returned.

The unpaid amount will be included in your available balance, and you'll need to submit a new payout request through the Spring Account Center.

17What if I previously received payouts through Payoneer?

The Spring Account Center currently supports PayPal payouts only.

If you previously used Payoneer, you can choose to:
• Switch to PayPal: Add a PayPal account in the Spring Account Center and request a payout once your balance is eligible.
• Wait for Payoneer support: Your remaining balance will stay in the Spring Account Center until Payoneer payouts become available.

We'll notify creators with Payoneer payout accounts by email when Payoneer support is available.

18What happens to my current Spring store URL?

If you purchased a custom domain through Spring, you'll need to transfer it to a new domain registrar to continue managing and renewing it.

You can prepare your domain for transfer through the Spring Account Center, our official self-service tool for managing Spring domain transfers.

We strongly recommend starting your transfer as soon as possible. Domain transfers can take several days to complete, and waiting until your domain is close to expiring could put your registration at risk.

19How do I transfer my domain to a new registrar?

You can start the transfer process directly from the Spring Account Center.

1. Prepare your domain for transfer. Select your domain and follow the instructions to prepare it for transfer. If your domain is registered to a different email address than your Spring account, you'll also need to verify that email address.
2. Get your authorization code. Once your domain is ready, copy the authorization code provided in the Spring Account Center. You'll need this code to transfer your domain.
3. Choose a new registrar. Select a domain registrar, such as GoDaddy, Namecheap, or another provider of your choice.
4. Start the transfer. Follow your new registrar's instructions to transfer your domain and enter your authorization code when prompted. Your new registrar will typically charge a transfer fee that includes an additional year of registration.
5. Confirm the transfer. Check the email address associated with your domain registration for any required confirmations or transfer-related notifications.
6. Complete the transfer. Your new registrar will process the request and take over management of your domain once the transfer is complete.

20What happens after my domain is transferred?

Once your transfer is complete, your new registrar will manage your domain registration, including future renewals.

You'll also need to configure your domain's DNS settings to connect it to your new website or storefront. Transferring your domain does not automatically connect it to a new website.

If your domain is not configured to point to an active website, visitors may not be able to reach your store using that domain.

21Will transferring my domain also transfer my Spring store and products?

No. Transferring your domain does not migrate your Spring store, products, or designs.

If you'd like to continue selling through Amaze Commerce, you'll need to create an account and set up your products on the new platform separately.

Once your new storefront is ready and your domain transfer is complete, you can configure your domain's DNS settings to direct visitors to your new store.
