Migrate from WordPress
without the chaos.
No more plugin sprawl, no more functions.php hacks, no more "the update broke staging again." Move to Payload CMS — TypeScript-native, headless-ready, fully owned by you.
Four reasons to leave
WordPress behind.
After years of WordPress projects, we know exactly what makes it painful at scale — and what Payload CMS does better.
End plugin hell
No more 47 plugins fighting each other. Payload's code-first architecture means features live in your codebase — version-controlled, peer-reviewed, and tested.
TypeScript-native
Type safety from database to frontend. Refactor with confidence. Catch bugs at compile time, not when a customer reports the broken checkout on Friday at 6 PM.
Headless by default
Use any frontend — Next.js, Astro, mobile apps, native clients. Your content layer stops dictating your presentation layer.
Full ownership
Your code, your database, your infrastructure. No SaaS lock-in, no per-seat fees, no surprise pricing emails when you scale past 10k users.
