Your WooCommerce to PrestaShop Migration in Detail

Migrating your store with Cart2Cart is a straightforward, step-by-step process. Follow our intuitive wizard to set up and launch your data transfer:

  1. Connect Your Source Cart (WooCommerce)

    Begin by selecting WooCommerce as your Source Cart. Provide your store's URL and choose a connection method. You can connect via API credentials, by providing admin access for auto-upload of the connection bridge, or by manually uploading the Cart2Cart bridge files via FTP/SFTP.

    The initial view of the 'Source Store Info' page. It displays the 'Choose Source Shopping Cart' dropdown with 'WooCommerce' selected, along with input fields for Source Store URL, Source Store Admin URL, Source Admin Login, and Source Admin Password. An 'I don't have these details' checkbox is available for admin credentials.
  2. Connect Your Target Cart (PrestaShop)

    Next, select PrestaShop as your Target Cart. Enter your new PrestaShop store's URL. For PrestaShop, connection is typically established by uploading the Cart2Cart bridge files via FTP/SFTP, or by providing admin credentials for automatic bridge upload.

  3. Select Data Entities & Configure Additional Options

    Choose which data entities you wish to migrate, such as products, customers, orders, and more. Cart2Cart provides a detailed mapping of fields to ensure accuracy. Additionally, select from a range of additional options to customize your migration, like preserving SEO URLs, migrating customer passwords, or transferring images embedded in descriptions.

Navigation buttons for 'Previous Step', 'Skip Demo', and 'Start Demo Migration' are visible at the bottom.
  4. Run a Free Demo Migration

    Before committing to a full migration, we highly recommend performing a free Demo Migration. This transfers a limited number of entities, allowing you to review the results on your PrestaShop store and ensure everything is transferred correctly and to your satisfaction.

    Once you're satisfied with the demo results, proceed to launch your Full Migration. Our system will then transfer all your selected data from WooCommerce to PrestaShop, keeping you updated on the progress in real-time. Your store will remain live and accessible throughout the process.

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.
