  1. Set Up Your Source Magento Store

    Enter your current Magento store URL. Depending on your version, you can connect via API credentials or by uploading a Connection Bridge. For the Bridge method, download the file and upload the 'bridge2cart' folder to your store's root directory via FTP/SFTP.

    Source Store Setup
  2. Configure Your Target X-Cart Store

    Provide the URL of your new X-Cart store. Since X-Cart is a self-hosted platform, you will need to download the Connection Bridge and upload it to your X-Cart root directory to establish a secure link for data import.

  3. Select Data Entities and Additional Options

How long does the Magento to X-Cart migration take?

The duration depends primarily on the number of entities (products, customers, orders) you are moving. A small store can be migrated in under an hour, while larger databases may take several hours. You can use the Cart2Cart estimator to get a more precise timeframe.

Will my Magento store be offline during the transfer?

No. Cart2Cart ensures 100% uptime for your source store. Your Magento site remains live and available for customers to browse and make purchases throughout the entire migration process.

Can I migrate my customer passwords?

Yes, Cart2Cart offers a specific additional option for Magento to X-Cart migrations that allows you to migrate customer passwords. This ensures a seamless transition for your shoppers as they won't need to reset their login details.

What is a Demo Migration?

A Demo Migration is a free trial that moves a small subset of your data to the target X-Cart store. It allows you to check the mapping and ensure that everything—from product descriptions to customer details—is transferring exactly as expected.

Is it possible to migrate SEO URLs?

Yes. By selecting the 'Migrate categories and products SEO URLs' option, you can preserve your existing URL structure. This is critical for maintaining your search engine rankings and preventing 404 errors after the move.

What happens if the migration fails?

Cart2Cart provides 24/7 support to assist with any issues. Additionally, we offer Migration Insurance plans that allow you to restart the migration or update data if something goes wrong on your target store setup after the initial 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.
