Your Step-by-Step Migration Journey

Migrating your store data from osCommerce to PrestaShop with Cart2Cart is a streamlined process. Follow these simple steps to get started:

  1. Connect Your Source osCommerce Store

    First, select 'osCommerce' as your Source Cart and provide your store's URL. For osCommerce, the connection method is typically via the Cart2Cart Bridge (FTP Upload). You'll download a connection_bridge.zip file, unpack it, and upload the bridge2cart folder to your osCommerce store's root directory using an FTP/SFTP client.

    Connect your osCommerce store by uploading the Cart2Cart bridge files.

  2. Connect Your Target PrestaShop Store

    Next, choose 'PrestaShop' as your Target Cart and enter its URL. PrestaShop offers flexible connection options, including the Cart2Cart Bridge (FTP Upload), automatic upload via Admin User Credentials, or manual upload of a Bridge ZIP archive through the admin section. Select the method that best suits your setup and follow the instructions to establish a secure connection.

  3. Select Data Entities for Migration

    Once both stores are connected, you'll proceed to the 'Entities Selection' step. Here, you can choose exactly which data types you want to migrate, such as products, customers, orders, categories, and more. Cart2Cart provides a detailed overview of supported entities for the osCommerce to PrestaShop pair.

  4. Configure Additional Migration Options

    Enhance your migration with a range of additional options. These include preserving SEO URLs, migrating customer passwords, creating 301 redirects, and more. Carefully select the options that align with your business needs to ensure a comprehensive data transfer and maintain your store's integrity.

  5. Run Demo and Full Migration

    Before initiating the full migration, we highly recommend running a free Demo Migration. This transfers a limited number of entities, allowing you to review the results on your PrestaShop store and ensure everything is transferred accurately. Once satisfied, you can proceed with the Full Migration to transfer all your data.

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.
