Overview
Splio organizes customer data around contacts, loyalty memberships, products, orders, and campaign events — with a strong emphasis on behavioral tracking and loyalty program mechanics. HubSpot models everything as contacts, companies, deals, and custom objects with a lifecycle-stage framework that tracks where a person sits in the marketing-to-sales funnel. The migration carries every Splio object into HubSpot's equivalent: contacts to contacts, products to HubSpot products, orders to deals with line items, and loyalty memberships to a custom object with tier and points fields. The harder problems are mapping Splio's loyalty tier history into HubSpot's linear lifecycle model, preserving Splio's N:N list memberships in HubSpot's contact-to-company associations, and handling Splio campaign events that have no native HubSpot equivalent. Splio's export requires admin access and excludes contacts without a list assignment — we handle this by running list-based exports and reconciling unassigned contacts against the full contact pool before migration. Additional steps include validating field-level data types, ensuring product-to-line-item linkage integrity, and generating an audit log for every record transformation.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Splio object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Splio
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Direct map. Splio contacts migrate to HubSpot contacts. Splio contacts without a list assignment are reconciled against the full contact export before migration to prevent exclusion. HubSpot requires at minimum an email address for contact creation; contacts without email are flagged for manual review.
Splio
Contact (with loyalty membership)
HubSpot
Contact + Loyalty_Membership__c (custom object)
many:1Splio contacts with active loyalty memberships split into HubSpot Contact plus a Loyalty_Membership__c custom object linked by email. The custom object stores nq_points, q_points, tier, and card_code. HubSpot's association model links the custom object to the contact record. The association uses the contact's email as the primary key, ensuring queries can pull loyalty status directly from the contact record. This design maintains referential integrity and simplifies reporting on loyalty metrics.
Splio
List / Blocklist
HubSpot
HubSpot static list
1:1Splio lists map to HubSpot static lists. Splio blocklists map to a HubSpot blocklist property on each contact. Dynamic lists built on Splio filters are not transferable — they require rebuilding in HubSpot with HubSpot's filter syntax. During migration, we preserve the static list membership by creating corresponding HubSpot static lists and populating them with the same contacts. The blocklist property is set as a boolean flag for quick suppression.
Splio
Product
HubSpot
Product (HubSpot product library)
1:1Splio products migrate to HubSpot products. The product name, SKU, price, and description map directly. HubSpot products must exist before line items reference them on deals, so products migrate before order data. If a Splio product lacks a SKU, we generate a placeholder SKU to ensure compatibility with HubSpot's product library. After migration, you can update product details directly in HubSpot's product management interface.
Splio
Store
HubSpot
Custom property on Product + Company
1:1Splio store data (store name, location, store_id) attaches to HubSpot products via a custom property (Store_ID__c) for retail scenarios, or to companies for B2B branch tracking. We surface this mapping decision in the migration plan before data lands. This ensures that store attribution is searchable in HubSpot reports and can be used in downstream workflows such as regional segmentation or store-specific email campaigns.
Splio
Order
HubSpot
Deal + Line Items
many:1Splio orders migrate as HubSpot deals. The order total becomes the deal amount. Order date maps to the deal close date. Each order_item links to the product record via a HubSpot line item. Splio order_id preserved as Original_Order_ID__c for reconciliation.
Splio
Order_Item
HubSpot
Line Item
1:1Splio order_items map directly to HubSpot line items. Quantity and unit price map to HubSpot Quantity and Unit Price. Line items reference the HubSpot product record by product ID. Order items without a matching product in HubSpot are flagged before migration.
Splio
Campaign
HubSpot
HubSpot campaign
1:1Splio campaigns migrate as HubSpot campaigns. Campaign name, type, and scheduled date map directly. HubSpot campaigns track which contacts are members but do not carry Splio's internal engagement scoring — that requires rebuilding with HubSpot's lead scoring tool. To preserve historical campaign context, we also record the original Splio campaign ID as a custom property on the HubSpot campaign record for reference and future reconciliation.
Splio
Campaign Event
HubSpot
Custom property on Contact
1:1Splio campaign events (opens, clicks, page views, behavioral triggers) have no native HubSpot equivalent. We preserve the most recent event type and timestamp as custom properties on the contact record. Full event history is exported as a JSON file and attached to the contact for reference.
Splio
Loyalty Reward
HubSpot
Loyalty_Membership__c (custom object)
1:1Splio rewards (reward type, attribution date, expiry) migrate to the Loyalty_Membership__c custom object. Active reward attributions are preserved; expired rewards are flagged for archival based on your retention criteria. During migration, we map the reward type to a text field, the attribution date to a date property, and the expiry date to a separate expiration field. This structure enables future queries for active versus expired rewards.
Splio
Custom Field (contacts scope)
HubSpot
Custom property on Contact
1:1Splio custom fields scoped to contacts migrate as HubSpot custom contact properties. Field type maps per Splio type: text → string, int → number, double → number, date → date. Pick-list fields in Splio become HubSpot dropdown properties. We also preserve any default values or validation rules defined in Splio by replicating them as property settings in HubSpot, ensuring data consistency after migration.
Splio
Custom Field (orders scope)
HubSpot
Custom property on Deal + Line Item
1:1Splio custom fields scoped to orders migrate to HubSpot custom properties on the deal. Order-level custom fields (e.g., fulfillment_status) attach to the deal record; product-level custom fields on order_items attach to the line item. We map each custom field to the appropriate HubSpot property, preserving data types and any associated pick-list options. This ensures that order metadata remains searchable and reportable in HubSpot's analytics tools.
Splio
Filter (Splio Target)
HubSpot
Not transferable
1:1Splio filters used for segmentation have no HubSpot equivalent. We export the filter definitions as a reference document. HubSpot lists and smart lists must be rebuilt using HubSpot's filter builder. This is a manual rebuild item disclosed upfront. During the export, we capture filter criteria, operator logic, and any nested conditions so your team can replicate the logic accurately in HubSpot. This reference file is delivered alongside the migration deliverables.

Migration approach
Audit Splio export scope and flag unassigned contacts
Before any data movement, we run a discovery export against Splio's admin-level API. We identify all contacts, lists, loyalty memberships, products, orders, and campaign records. We cross-reference contacts against Splio's list memberships to surface any unassigned contacts excluded from standard exports. We document custom field schemas per scope (contacts, orders, loyalty) and verify product-to-order-item linkage viability. The audit output is a migration plan with record counts, field-level mapping draft, and a list of pre-migration cleanup tasks.
Create HubSpot custom objects and properties for loyalty, order metadata, and Splio-specific fields
We create the Loyalty_Membership__c custom object in HubSpot with fields for card_code, tier, nq_points, q_points, and tier_change_date. We also create custom properties on Contact (original_create_date__c, source_system_id__c, loyalty_event_type__c) and on Deal (original_order_id__c, fulfillment_status__c, payment_status__c). If Splio custom fields use pick-list types, we pre-create the dropdown options in HubSpot to match Splio's values before data lands. This schema setup ensures field IDs are available for mapping during the data load phase, preventing delays caused by late property creation. Additionally, we configure any required validation rules to enforce data consistency after migration.
Migrate products first, then orders with line items
We sequence the data load so products enter HubSpot's product library before any order records. This ensures product IDs are assigned before order_items resolve their product_id lookup. Orders migrate as Deals with the order total as the deal amount and order_date as the close date (marked Won). Each order_item becomes a HubSpot line item linked to the corresponding product. Unresolved product references are flagged to a placeholder product for post-migration reconciliation.
Migrate contacts and loyalty memberships with association linking
Contacts migrate with direct field mapping (email, name, phone, address). Contacts with active Splio loyalty memberships generate a corresponding Loyalty_Membership__c record linked by email. Lists migrate as HubSpot static lists; dynamic list definitions are exported as a reference document for HubSpot rebuild. Campaign events are summarized as custom properties on the contact with full event history in a JSON attachment.
Run sample migration with field-level diff and delta pickup planning
A representative slice of records (typically 200–500) migrates first: contacts spanning loyalty/non-loyalty, orders across product categories, and campaign membership. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against HubSpot field values so you can verify tier mapping, order amount precision, and custom property population before the full run commits. We then coordinate a delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) to capture any records modified in Splio during the cutover period.
Cutover with delta pickup, audit log, and rollback readiness
The full migration runs against HubSpot. The delta-pickup window captures in-flight Splio changes. Every operation is logged to an audit trail with source record ID, destination record ID, and transformation applied. If reconciliation identifies discrepancies (record count mismatch, missing association), one-click rollback reverts the destination to pre-migration state. We do not modify your Splio account — scoped read access throughout ensures your team continues working in Splio until the HubSpot go-live is confirmed.
