The automated export from OpenCart to CSV follows a streamlined, secure process:
-
Configure Source Store: Select OpenCart as your source platform. Provide your store's URL and establish a connection using the Cart2Cart Bridge (via FTP) or by entering your Admin credentials for an automatic setup.
- Select Target Destination: Choose "CSV File" as your target platform. This tells the wizard to generate downloadable files instead of pushing data to a live site.
-
Choose Data Entities: Select the specific types of data you want to export, such as Products, Categories, Customers, and Orders. You can also pick additional options like SEO URL migration or image transfer.
-
Run a Free Demo: Initiate a Demo Migration to export a small sample of your data. This allows you to inspect the CSV structure and verify that all fields are mapped correctly.
- Launch Full Migration: Once satisfied with the demo results, start the Full Migration to receive the complete set of CSV files containing your entire OpenCart database.
Entities Available for Export
Based on OpenCart's capabilities, you can migrate the following data to your CSV files:
- Products: Names, SKUs, full descriptions, prices, stock quantities, and manufacturers.
- Product Categories: Category names, descriptions, and hierarchy.
- Customers: Personal details, emails, and Customer Groups.
- Orders: Complete order history, statuses, and associated customer data.
- Coupons & Taxes: Discount codes and regional tax configurations.
- Reviews: Customer ratings and feedback text.
- CMS Content: Blog posts and static pages.
How long does it take to export OpenCart to CSV?
The time required depends on the total number of entities (products, orders, etc.) in your store. Most migrations are completed within a few hours, providing you with a download link immediately after.
Will my OpenCart store be down during the process?
No. Your store remains fully operational. Cart2Cart only reads data from your source store, so your customers can continue to browse and buy without any downtime.
Can I export specific data types only?
Yes, you have full control. During the setup, you can select only the entities you need, such as just your customer list or just your product catalog.
Is there a way to see a sample of the CSV before the full migration?
Yes, we highly recommend running the Free Demo Migration. It exports a limited amount of data so you can review the file format and data accuracy for free.
What happens if the migration fails?
Cart2Cart provides 24/7 technical support. If you encounter any issues, our team is available to assist you. You can also opt for a Migration Insurance plan for extra peace of mind.
Can I migrate my customer passwords to the CSV file?
Yes, by selecting the "Migrate customers' passwords" option in the Additional Options section, the hashed password data will be included in your export.

The team provides the easiest data migration way. I figured out everything quite fast but still had several questions. After a brief phone call, the app team helped me through the process and everything went smoothly. Thanks!

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.
