Your osCommerce to CSV File Migration Process
Migrating your osCommerce store data to a CSV file with Cart2Cart is a streamlined process designed for accuracy and ease. Follow these steps to ensure a successful data export:
-
Initiate Your Migration
Begin by creating a new migration project in your Cart2Cart account. This sets up the environment for your data transfer.
-
Connect Your Source osCommerce Store
Select osCommerce as your Source Cart. You will need to provide your osCommerce store's URL and upload the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge files to your store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. This bridge facilitates a secure connection for data extraction.
-
Configure Your Target as CSV File
Choose 'CSV File' as your Target Cart. Since you are exporting data to files, there are no administrative or file system credentials needed for a 'target store'. Instead, Cart2Cart will prepare your data for download in CSV format.
-
Select Data Entities for Export
Carefully choose the specific data entities you wish to export from your osCommerce store. This includes products, customers, orders, categories, and more. You have full control over what data is included in your CSV files.
-
Choose Additional Export Options
Enhance your data export by selecting additional options. These can include preserving IDs (products, customers, orders, categories), migrating images from descriptions, or adjusting product quantities. These options allow for a highly customized and comprehensive data dump.
-
Run a Free Demo Export
We highly recommend running a free Demo Migration first. This exports a limited number of entities (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to CSV, allowing you to review the file structure and data accuracy before committing to a full export.
-
Review & Download Demo Results
After the demo, you'll be able to download the generated CSV files. Inspect them thoroughly to ensure all data is formatted and transferred as expected. This step is crucial for verifying the integrity of your data.
-
Start Full Data Export & Download
Once satisfied with the demo results, proceed with the full data export. Cart2Cart will process all your selected osCommerce data and make the complete set of CSV files available for you to download, providing you with a comprehensive archive of your store's information.

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.
