Your CSV to CSV Migration in Detail
Migrating your e-commerce data from a CSV file to another CSV file format for platforms like aMember Pro or Shop-Script Free is a straightforward process with Cart2Cart. Our wizard guides you through each step, ensuring a precise and controlled data transfer.
-
1. Select Source & Target Platforms
Begin by selecting "CSV File" as both your Source and Target Shopping Cart in the Cart2Cart migration wizard. This tells our system that you'll be providing data via a CSV file and wish to receive the output in a structured CSV format tailored for your target platform.
-
2. Upload Your Source CSV File
In the 'Resources list' section, you will upload your source CSV file containing your store's data. Our system will validate the file format and check for mandatory column headers, guiding you if any corrections are needed. This step is crucial for Cart2Cart to understand your current data structure.
-
3. Choose Data Entities for Migration
Next, you'll specify which data entities (like Products, Categories, Customers, Orders) you wish to transfer. Our intuitive interface allows you to select checkboxes for each entity. For CSV migrations, this step also involves mapping your source CSV columns to the corresponding fields in the target CSV structure, ensuring data accuracy.
-
4. Configure Additional Migration Options
Enhance your migration by selecting various additional options. These can include features like preserving customer IDs, adjusting product quantities, or migrating images linked within descriptions. These options provide granular control over how your data is processed and formatted in the output CSV.
-
5. Run a Free Demo Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, we highly recommend running a free Demo Migration. This transfers a limited set of your data (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to a test environment or generates a sample output CSV. You can monitor the progress in real-time.
-
6. Review Demo Results & Download Output CSV
Upon completion of the demo, you'll access the Demo Results Review page. Here, you can check the migrated entities and download the sample output CSV file. This allows you to verify data accuracy and structure before proceeding with the full migration.
-
7. Initiate Full Migration & Download Final CSV
Once satisfied with the demo, proceed to initiate your Full Migration. Cart2Cart will process all your selected data, generating the complete output CSV file. You can monitor the progress and download your final, perfectly formatted CSV file ready for import into your new e-commerce platform.

Frequently Asked Questions about CSV to CSV Migration
How long does a CSV to CSV migration take?
The duration of your CSV to CSV migration largely depends on the volume of data within your files and the complexity of the mapping. While the actual processing of CSV files is generally very fast, a full migration can range from a few minutes for smaller datasets to several hours for very large ones. Our system provides real-time progress updates.
Will my store experience downtime during the CSV migration?
No, your live store will not experience any downtime during the CSV migration process. Cart2Cart works with your exported CSV files, meaning your current aMember Pro or other source store remains fully operational. Similarly, your target Shop-Script Free or other platform is only affected during the final import of the generated CSV, which you control.
What types of data can I migrate from CSV to CSV?
You can migrate a comprehensive range of e-commerce entities, including Products, Product Categories, Customers, Orders, Manufacturers, Product Reviews, Blogs, Posts, Coupons, and CMS Pages. Our flexible mapping tools allow you to align virtually any data field present in your source CSV to your desired target CSV structure.
Can I test the migration before performing a full transfer?
Absolutely! Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) from your source CSV to a sample output CSV. You can then download and review these demo results to ensure data accuracy and mapping correctness before proceeding with the full migration.
What kind of support does Cart2Cart offer for CSV migrations?
Cart2Cart provides various levels of professional assistance. Our Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) offer dedicated account managers and technical engineers to assist with complex migrations, custom mapping, and quality control. For self-service users, our comprehensive knowledge base and support team are available.
What if I need to re-migrate or update my data after the initial transfer?
Cart2Cart offers Migration Insurance Plans that provide flexibility post-migration. For an additional fee, you can purchase plans that include free re-migrations and data updates within a specified period (e.g., 14 days). This is invaluable for transferring new data that appeared in your source store after the initial migration or correcting any unforeseen issues.
Is my data secure during the CSV migration process?
Yes, data security is a top priority for Cart2Cart. When you upload your CSV files, they are handled with strict security protocols. Our system processes your data in a secure environment, and we do not store your sensitive information beyond the necessary migration period. We ensure your data remains confidential and intact throughout the 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.
