Your Seamless Migration Journey to OpenCart

Migrating your store data from a CSV file to OpenCart with Cart2Cart is a straightforward process. Our intuitive wizard guides you through each step, ensuring a smooth and accurate transfer.

  1. 1. Connect Your Source (CSV File)

    Begin by selecting "CSV File" as your Source Shopping Cart. You will then upload your prepared CSV file containing your store data. Cart2Cart will analyze the file to prepare it for mapping.

  2. 2. Connect Your Target OpenCart Store

    Next, choose "OpenCart" as your Target Shopping Cart. To establish a secure connection, you can either:

    • Provide Admin User Credentials: Enter your OpenCart admin login and password, allowing Cart2Cart to automatically upload the necessary bridge files.
    • Upload Cart2Cart Bridge Manually: Download the bridge files from Cart2Cart, unpack them, and upload the 'bridge2cart' folder to your OpenCart store's root directory via FTP/SFTP.
  3. 3. Select Data Entities for Migration

    Once connected, you'll proceed to the "Entities Selection" step. Here, you can precisely choose which data types you wish to migrate to OpenCart, such as Products, Customers, Orders, and more. Our system will display the available entities based on your CSV file's structure and OpenCart's capabilities.

  4. 4. Configure Additional Options & Map Data

    Enhance your migration with various additional options, including preserving SEO URLs, migrating customer passwords, or clearing existing data on your target store. You'll also have the opportunity to map your CSV file fields to the corresponding OpenCart fields, ensuring data accuracy.

  5. 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 OpenCart store, enabling you to review the results and ensure everything is transferred correctly.

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.
