Your OpenCart to CSV Export in Detail
Cart2Cart simplifies the process of exporting your OpenCart store data to a CSV file. Follow these straightforward steps to get your data ready:
-
Connect Your OpenCart Source Store:
Begin by selecting OpenCart as your Source Cart. You'll then provide your OpenCart store's URL and choose a connection method. Cart2Cart supports:
- Cart2Cart Bridge (FTP Upload): Upload bridge files via FTP/SFTP to your OpenCart root directory.
- Platform Admin User Credentials: Provide your OpenCart admin login and password for automatic bridge upload.
- Cart2Cart Bridge in ZIP archive: Manually upload a ZIP archive of the bridge via your OpenCart admin section.
-
Configure Your CSV Export (Target Setup):
Since you're exporting to a CSV file, there's no "target store" to connect in the traditional sense. Instead, Cart2Cart will guide you through configuring the CSV export format. You'll specify how your OpenCart data should be structured in the output CSV, ensuring it meets your specific requirements for import into another system or for analysis.
-
Select Data Entities for Export:
Choose exactly which data entities you wish to export from your OpenCart store. Cart2Cart allows you to select specific items like products, customers, orders, and more, giving you granular control over your data export.
-
Refine with Additional Options:
Customize your export further with a range of additional options. These can include exporting images within descriptions, including customer passwords, or preserving original IDs.
-
Run Demo and Full Export:
Before committing to the full export, we recommend running a free demo migration. This allows you to review a sample of your exported data in a CSV file and verify its accuracy. Once satisfied, proceed with the full export to retrieve all your selected OpenCart data.

How long does an OpenCart to CSV migration take?

A small store with a few hundred entities might take minutes, while larger stores with tens of thousands of entities could take several hours. Cart2Cart's automated process is designed for efficiency, and a free demo migration can give you a more precise estimate.

No, your OpenCart store will remain fully operational and accessible to your customers throughout the data export process. Cart2Cart performs the migration in the background, ensuring zero downtime and no disruption to your sales or customer experience.

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. 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.
