The export process is divided into a few simple steps designed to give you full control over your data.
-
Step 1: Connect your OpenCart Source Store
Enter your current store URL. Choose your preferred connection method: use the Cart2Cart Auto-Upload Bridge by providing your admin credentials, or manually upload the Bridge files via FTP/SFTP to your site's root directory.
-
Step 2: Select CSV File as your Target
Select "CSV File" as your destination. This setup allows the system to prepare the data structure for a clean spreadsheet-ready format.
-
Step 3: Choose Entities for Migration
Select the specific data types you wish to export, such as Products, Customers, Orders, or Categories. You can also choose additional options like migrating images in descriptions or preserving SEO URLs.
-
Step 4: Launch the Migration

How long does the OpenCart to CSV export take?
The duration depends primarily on the number of entities (products, orders, customers) you are exporting. Most small to medium stores complete the process within an hour.
Will my OpenCart store go offline during the process?
No. Your source store remains 100% online and available to customers. Cart2Cart only reads the data; it does not interfere with your store's performance.
Can I choose specific data to migrate?
Yes, the "Choose Entities" feature allows you to select only the data types you need, such as just products or just customer lists.
Is it possible to test the migration first?
Absolutely. We offer a Free Demo migration that allows you to export a limited number of entities to a CSV file to verify the accuracy and format.
What happens if the migration fails?
Our technical support team is available to assist you. Additionally, because this is an export to a CSV file, your original OpenCart data remains completely untouched and safe.

The team is always there to help you
I've been through several migrations using this service and I can tell nothing but best. The whole process and service are on point. The team is always there to help you. I like the fact that there are several options to migrate from one platform to another. There is no better service than this for sure.

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.
