Main issue: whether an Impulse theme license from an existing Shopify store can be transferred to a new store, while switching the current store to the Dawn theme. The requester wants a fresh Impulse theme file on the new store, not a direct copy, and hopes to reuse the existing license.
Latest guidance: Shopify themes are licensed per individual shop. Practically, a separate purchase is required for multiple stores. The only potential alternative is to contact the theme developer to ask about issuing a license for the new shop or offering a discount on a new purchase; no built-in license transfer was indicated.
Status/outcome: No confirmed way to transfer via Shopify. Action items: purchase a new Impulse license for the new store or reach out to the theme developer. Discussion remains open.
I am looking to open a new shopify store. I recently bought the impulse theme for my current store. Is it possible to use the license for my current store and transfer it to the new store and switch to the dawn theme on the current store?
I don’t want to use the exact same theme file I just want to start on a fresh impulse theme file but get the license so I can use it on the new store.
@lemi235 themes are by default licensed to a specific shop, so you would typically need to purchase the theme separate for multiple shops. The only other option here would be to reach out to the theme developer directly to see if they’re willing to offer a license for the new shop or maybe at least a discount on purchasing the theme for the new shop.
