Your CSV to PrestaShop Migration in 5 Easy Steps
Migrating your store data from CSV to PrestaShop with Cart2Cart is designed for simplicity and efficiency. Follow these steps to get your new PrestaShop store up and running quickly:
-
Connect Your Source Store (CSV File)
Begin by selecting 'CSV File' as your Source Cart. You will then be prompted to upload your CSV data files. Cart2Cart's wizard guides you through mapping your CSV fields to PrestaShop's data structure, ensuring all your product, customer, and order information is correctly recognized for transfer.
-
Connect Your Target Store (PrestaShop)
Next, select 'PrestaShop' as your Target Cart. To establish a secure connection, you will typically need to upload a connection bridge to your PrestaShop store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. Alternatively, for some versions, providing admin credentials might allow for an automatic bridge upload.
-
Select Data Entities & Configure Additional Options
Choose the specific data entities you wish to migrate, such as products, customers, orders, and categories. Cart2Cart provides a comprehensive list of supported entities. You can also select additional migration options to tailor the process, like preserving SEO URLs, migrating images in descriptions, or transferring customer passwords.

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.
