Your Step-by-Step Migration to BigCommerce

Migrating your store data from a CSV file to BigCommerce with Cart2Cart is a guided process designed for accuracy and ease. Here’s how it works:

  1. Connect Your Source Store (CSV File)

    Begin by selecting 'CSV File' as your Source Cart type in the Cart2Cart migration wizard. You will then upload your CSV data files containing your products, customers, orders, and other entities. Our system will validate the file format and check for mandatory column headers, guiding you through any necessary corrections to ensure your data is ready for transfer.

  2. Connect Your Target Store (BigCommerce)

    Next, choose 'BigCommerce' as your Target Cart. Cart2Cart connects to BigCommerce via API, requiring appropriate credentials. You will need to provide your BigCommerce store's API path, Client ID, and Access Token, which can be generated in your BigCommerce admin panel under 'API Accounts'. This secure connection allows Cart2Cart to import your data directly into your new BigCommerce store.

  3. Select Data Entities for Migration

    On the 'Entities Selection' page, you'll choose which specific data types (entities) you wish to migrate. This includes products, customers, orders, categories, and more. You can review how individual fields will be mapped from your CSV file to BigCommerce, ensuring data integrity and precise control over what gets transferred.

  4. Configure Additional Migration Options

    Enhance your migration with a range of additional options. These features allow you to preserve critical data like SEO URLs, create 301 redirects, manage product quantities, and more. You can select options such as 'Clear current data on Target Store before Migration', 'Create 301 SEO URLs', 'Change products quantity to 100 on Target Store', and 'Migrate categories and products SEO URLs' to tailor the migration to your specific needs.

  5. Run a Free Demo Migration

    Before committing to a full transfer, we highly recommend running a free demo migration. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities to your BigCommerce store, letting you review the results and verify data accuracy. You can check product details, customer information, and order history on both the frontend and backend of your BigCommerce store to ensure everything is transferred correctly.

  6. Launch Your Full Migration

    Once you are satisfied with the demo results, proceed to launch your full data migration. Cart2Cart will transfer all your selected data from the CSV file to your BigCommerce store, ensuring a complete and seamless transition. You can monitor the progress in real-time on the Full Results Review Page, which displays the status of each entity and a financial breakdown.

Cart2Cart migrations are designed to minimize downtime. The actual data transfer occurs on our servers, allowing your source store to remain operational. You can continue selling during the migration, and once complete, you simply switch your domain to the new BigCommerce store.

What data can I migrate from a CSV file to BigCommerce?

You can migrate a wide range of entities including products, product categories, customers, customer groups, orders, order statuses, fulfillment statuses, manufacturers, coupons, CMS pages, blogs, posts, and tax configurations. Our wizard allows you to select precisely which data types to transfer.

This app performs greatly

This app performs greatly. The service is very reliable and the support is superb. The service is quite costly for me but in the end, it's worth its money. There is also an automated shopping cart migration and I'm very happy about that! I'm really satisfied.
