Your Step-by-Step Migration Journey to osCommerce

Migrating your store data from a CSV file to osCommerce with Cart2Cart is designed to be straightforward and efficient. Follow these key steps to ensure a smooth transition:

  1. Connect Your Source Cart (CSV File)

    Begin by selecting 'CSV File' as your Source Cart type in the Cart2Cart Migration Wizard. You will then be prompted to upload your CSV data files. Our system will analyze your files to prepare them for mapping and transfer.

  2. Connect Your Target Cart (osCommerce)

    Next, choose 'osCommerce' as your Target Cart. To establish a secure connection, you will need to upload the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge files to your osCommerce store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. This bridge acts as a secure gateway for data transfer.

Download and unpack connection_bridge.zip' with a 'Download Bridge' button, '2. Upload 'bridge2cart' folder to your store's root (catalog)' with a 'Read instructions' link, and '3. Click Next step'.

  3. Select Data Entities for Migration

    On the 'Entities Selection' page, you will see a list of data types (entities) available for migration from your CSV to osCommerce. Simply check the boxes next to the entities you wish to transfer, such as Products, Categories, Customers, and Orders. You can also review detailed field mapping for each entity.

Navigation buttons for 'Previous Step', 'Skip Demo', and 'Start Demo Migration' are visible at the bottom.

  5. Run a Free Demo Migration

You can migrate a wide range of entities including Products, Product Categories, Customers, Customer Groups, Orders, Order Statuses, Manufacturers, Reviews, Stores, and Taxes. Our service ensures a comprehensive transfer of your essential e-commerce data.

How do I connect my osCommerce store to Cart2Cart?

To connect your osCommerce target store, you will use the Cart2Cart Bridge (FTP Upload) method.

Absolutely! You can select various additional options such as preserving Product, Order, Customer, and Category IDs, migrating images from descriptions, changing product quantities, and supporting multiple languages. These options help tailor the migration to your specific needs.

What if I need to re-migrate or update data after the initial transfer?

Cart2Cart offers Migration Insurance plans that provide options for re-migrations and data updates within a specified period after your initial full migration. This acts as a safety net for unforeseen data issues or new data in your source store.

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.
