Your CSV to Magento Migration in 4 Simple Steps
-
1. Upload Your CSV File
Begin by selecting "CSV File" as your Source Platform. You will then be prompted to upload your CSV data files. Cart2Cart's wizard guides you through mapping your CSV columns to the corresponding Magento fields, ensuring every piece of data finds its correct place.
-
2. Connect Your Magento Store
Next, choose "Magento" as your Target Platform. You'll need to provide your Magento store's URL and establish a connection. Magento supports connection via API or by uploading the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge files to your store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. This secure link allows our service to import your data.

3. Select Data Entities & Configure Options
With both stores connected, you can now select the specific data entities you wish to migrate, such as products, customers, and orders. Cart2Cart offers a detailed mapping interface to ensure accuracy. Additionally, choose from a range of additional migration options to customize your transfer, including preserving SEO URLs, migrating images in descriptions, and more.

4. Run Demo & Full Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, we highly recommend running a free Demo Migration. This allows you to see a subset of your data moved to Magento, giving you the chance to review the results and ensure everything is perfect. Once satisfied, proceed with the Full Migration to transfer all your chosen data seamlessly.
