Your Big Cartel to CSV Migration Process
Migrating your Big Cartel data to CSV with Cart2Cart is a straightforward, step-by-step process designed for efficiency and accuracy:
-
1. Connect Your Big Cartel Source Store
Begin by selecting Big Cartel as your Source Cart. To establish a secure connection, you will need to provide the necessary API credentials. Cart2Cart uses an API connection to safely retrieve your store’s data.
-
2. Configure Your CSV Target File
Next, choose CSV File as your Target Cart. Since you are exporting data to a file, you won't need to provide admin access or install a bridge. Instead, this step will involve configuring the output settings for your CSV file, ensuring the data is structured to your needs.
-
3. Select Data Entities for Export
On the "Entities Selection" page, specify exactly which data types you wish to export from your Big Cartel store. You can choose from a comprehensive list including products, customers, orders, and more.
-
4. Configure Additional Export Options
Enhance your data export with various additional options. For instance, you can choose to Change products quantity to 100 on Target Store, which is particularly useful for ensuring all products appear in stock in your CSV output, regardless of their current Big Cartel status.
-
5. Run Demo & Full Data Export
Before committing to a full export, we highly recommend running a free Demo Migration. This transfers a limited set of your Big Cartel data to sample CSV files, allowing you to review the results and ensure everything is exported correctly. Once satisfied, proceed with the Full Data Export to transfer all your selected Big Cartel data to comprehensive CSV files, ready for download.

Frequently Asked Questions about Big Cartel to CSV Migration
How long does a Big Cartel to CSV migration take?
A demo migration typically takes a few minutes to complete, transferring a limited number of entities. The duration of a full data export depends on the total volume of data in your Big Cartel store. Cart2Cart's automated process is designed for efficiency, handling transfers quickly and securely.
Will my Big Cartel store experience downtime during the CSV export?
No, your Big Cartel store will remain fully operational throughout the data export process. Cart2Cart performs the migration in the background, ensuring zero downtime for your customers and uninterrupted sales.
What data can I export from Big Cartel to CSV?
You can export a wide range of entities, including Customer Groups, Customers, Manufacturers, Orders, Orders Status, Product Categories, Products, Stores, and Taxes. Our wizard allows you to select precisely which data types you wish to include in your CSV file.
Can I test the Big Cartel to CSV export before a full transfer?
Absolutely! Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration that exports a limited set of your Big Cartel data to sample CSV files. This allows you to review the exported data and verify its accuracy and format before committing to a full data export.
What if I need assistance during my Big Cartel to CSV export?
Cart2Cart provides comprehensive support options. You can reach out to our support team for assistance, or consider purchasing one of our Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) for a dedicated account manager and technical engineers to handle your migration.
Is there a way to re-run the export or update data after the initial Big Cartel to CSV transfer?
While a direct "re-run" for CSV export isn't typically needed in the same way as a live store migration, you can always initiate a new export if your Big Cartel data changes. For live store migrations, Cart2Cart offers Migration Insurance plans that include re-migrations and data updates. For CSV, you simply start a new export process as needed.
How does Cart2Cart connect to my Big Cartel store for data export?
Cart2Cart connects to your Big Cartel store securely via its API. You will need to provide the appropriate API credentials during the source store setup step in our migration wizard to enable data extraction.
What happens to product quantities during the Big Cartel to CSV export?
By default, product quantities are exported as they are in your Big Cartel store. However, you can select the "Change products quantity to 100 on Target Store" additional option to ensure that all products, especially those with zero stock, are listed with a quantity of 100 in your exported CSV file.

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.
