Your Big Cartel to CSV Export Journey with Cart2Cart

Exporting your Big Cartel store data to a CSV file is a streamlined process designed for efficiency and accuracy. Here’s how Cart2Cart guides you through each step:

  1. Choose Your Migration Service Package

    Begin by selecting a service package that aligns with your migration needs. Options range from Basic to Ultimate, offering varying levels of support and customization. Provide your basic contact information to get started.

    Screenshot of the 'Choose Migration Service Package' page, showing fields for user name and email, and radio buttons for selecting 'Migration Service Packages' (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) with their respective prices. A checkbox for agreeing to Terms of Service and Privacy Policy is also visible, along with a 'Next Step' button.
  2. Connect Your Big Cartel Source Store

    Specify Big Cartel as your source platform. Cart2Cart connects via API, requiring appropriate credentials. Simply provide your Big Cartel store's URL and API access details to establish a secure connection for data extraction.

It displays 'OpenCart' selected as the source store type, an input field for the OpenCart Admin URL, and the 'Provide Store Admin Access for Auto Upload' connection method selected with fields for Admin Login and Admin Password. The 'Next Step' button is highlighted in green.
  3. Configure CSV as Your Target Format

    Instead of connecting to a live e-commerce platform, you will select "CSV File" as your target. This tells Cart2Cart to process your Big Cartel data and prepare it for export into downloadable CSV files.

    A screenshot of the 'Target Store Setup' page, showing the 'Try migration using Cart2Cart test store' checkbox highlighted by a red arrow. Below it, 'Target Store' with 'Shopify' selected in a dropdown. The right sidebar displays 'Instruction' with 'Migration Preview' details, explaining its purpose for demo migrations to a Cart2Cart test store.
  4. Select Data Entities for Export

    Choose precisely which data entities you wish to export from your Big Cartel store. Options include Products, Customers, Orders, Categories, and more. You have full control over what data is included in your CSV files.

  5. Configure Additional Export Options

    Enhance your data export with various additional options. These can include preserving specific IDs, exporting images from descriptions, or adjusting product quantities. Select the options relevant to your data needs.

    A full view of the 'Additional Options' page (Step 6 of the migration wizard), displaying a list of selectable migration options with checkboxes, 'Watch' links to videos, and 'Recommended' labels. A right sidebar shows a 'Get Assistance' button and an 'Instruction' box, offering contextual information. Navigation buttons for 'Previous Step', 'Skip Demo', and 'Start Demo Migration' are visible at the bottom.
  6. Run a Demo Export or Full Data Transfer

    Before committing to a full export, you can run a free demo migration. This allows you to review a subset of your data in downloadable CSV files and ensure everything is exported correctly. Once satisfied, proceed with the full data transfer.

    A screenshot of the 'Demo Migration Process' page, showing the migration progress for various entities on the right, a user feedback survey on the left, and an 'Instruction' sidebar with a video tutorial on checking migration results.
  7. Download Your Exported CSV Files

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.
