Your osCommerce to CSV Migration Journey with Cart2Cart
Migrating your osCommerce store data to a CSV file is a straightforward process designed for efficiency and accuracy. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
-
Connect Your osCommerce Source Store
Begin by selecting osCommerce as your Source Cart. You will then need to provide your store's URL and establish a connection using the Cart2Cart Bridge. This secure bridge, uploaded via FTP/SFTP to your osCommerce root directory, enables our service to access your data.
-
Choose CSV File as Your Target
Next, select 'CSV File' as your Target Cart. This indicates that you wish to export your data into a downloadable CSV format, rather than migrating to a live store. Cart2Cart will prepare your data for export into structured CSV files.
-
Select Data Entities for Export
On the 'Entities Selection' page, choose precisely which data types you want to include in your CSV export. You can select products, customers, orders, categories, and more, giving you full control over the exported dataset.
-
Configure Additional Export Options
Tailor your data export with additional options. For instance, you can choose to migrate images embedded within product or category descriptions, ensuring your visual content is also captured in the export process.
-
Initiate Data Export
Once your preferences are set, proceed to initiate the data export. Cart2Cart will process your osCommerce data and generate downloadable CSV files containing all your selected information. You can then download these files and use them as needed.
What osCommerce Data Can Be Exported to CSV?
Cart2Cart supports the comprehensive export of various data entities from your osCommerce store to CSV files:
- Customer Groups
- Customers
- Manufacturers
- Orders
- Orders Status
- Product Categories
- Products
- Reviews
- Stores
- Taxes
How long does an osCommerce to CSV data export take?
The duration of your osCommerce to CSV data export depends on the total volume of data (products, customers, orders, etc.) you wish to transfer. Cart2Cart is designed for efficiency, and a demo migration can give you a precise estimate for your full export. Typically, exports for small to medium stores can be completed within a few hours.
Will my osCommerce store experience downtime during the CSV export?
No, your osCommerce store will remain fully operational during the data export process. Cart2Cart performs the data extraction without affecting your live store's performance or accessibility, ensuring zero downtime for your customers.
What specific data can I export from osCommerce to CSV?
You can export a wide range of entities, including Customer Groups, Customers, Manufacturers, Orders, Orders Status, Product Categories, Products, Reviews, Stores, and Taxes. You have full control to select which of these entities are included in your CSV files.
Can I test the osCommerce to CSV export before a full transfer?
Yes, Cart2Cart offers a free demo migration. This allows you to export a limited number of entities (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to CSV files, so you can review the structure and content of the exported data before committing to a full export.
What if I need assistance during my osCommerce to CSV data export?
Cart2Cart provides dedicated support to assist you throughout your migration. Our team of technical engineers and account managers are available to help with setup, troubleshooting, and any specific requirements you might have. You can choose from various Migration Service Packages for professional assistance.
Can I re-export my osCommerce data to CSV if needed?
Yes, if you need to re-export your data, for example, to capture new information added to your osCommerce store after the initial export, you can initiate another migration. Our service packages also offer options for re-migrations and data updates within a specified period.
Why should I export my osCommerce data to a CSV file?
Exporting to CSV is ideal for creating a flexible data backup, preparing for migration to a new e-commerce platform that supports CSV imports, or for detailed offline data analysis. It gives you full ownership and control over your store's historical data in a universally compatible format.

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.
