Your CSV to Volusion Migration in Detail
Cart2Cart simplifies the process of moving your store data. Here’s a step-by-step guide to your migration:
-
Upload Your CSV File(s)
As your source platform is a CSV file, the first step involves uploading your prepared data. Navigate to the 'Entities Selection' page in the migration wizard. Here, you'll find the 'Resources list' section where you can easily drag and drop your CSV files for various entities like products, categories, customers, and orders. Our system will then validate the file format and headers to ensure readiness for migration.
-
Connect to Volusion (Target)
For Volusion, Cart2Cart operates by preparing data files that you will then download and manually import into your Volusion store. Unlike direct API connections for data pushing, this method ensures full compatibility with Volusion's native import functionalities. You will select Volusion as your target platform, and Cart2Cart will configure the output files accordingly.
-
Select Data Entities & Map Fields
On the 'Entities Selection' page, choose precisely which data types you wish to migrate from your CSV to Volusion. You can select entities such as products, customers, orders, and more. Cart2Cart provides intuitive field mapping tools, allowing you to align your CSV column headers with the corresponding fields in Volusion, ensuring accurate data transfer.
-
Configure Additional Options
Enhance your migration with Cart2Cart's additional options. These features allow you to customize the transfer, such as clearing current data on your target store, preserving category IDs, or changing product quantities. Select the options that best suit your migration strategy for a tailored outcome.
-
Run a Free Demo Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, run a free demo migration. This transfers a limited subset of your data to a test Volusion store (or a Cart2Cart test store), allowing you to review the results and ensure everything migrates as expected. This crucial step builds confidence in the migration process.
-
Download & Import to Volusion
Once you are satisfied with the demo results, proceed with the full migration. Cart2Cart will process all your selected data and prepare the necessary import files. You will then download these files from your Cart2Cart account and use Volusion's native import functionalities to populate your new store with your migrated data.

You can migrate a wide range of entities including Coupons, Customer Groups, Customers, Gift cards, Manufacturers, Orders, Orders Status, Product Categories, Products, Reviews, Stores, and Taxes.
How do I upload my CSV data to Cart2Cart?
On the 'Entities Selection' page of the migration wizard, you'll find a 'Resources list' section. Here, you can easily drag and drop your CSV files or use the 'browse' option to upload them for specific entities like products, categories, or customers. Cart2Cart will then validate the file format and headers.
How do I get the migrated data into my Volusion store?
For Volusion, Cart2Cart processes your CSV data and prepares it for import. After your migration is complete (or after a demo), you will be able to download the generated data files from your Cart2Cart account. You then manually import these files into your Volusion store's administration panel using Volusion's native import tools.
Can I perform a demo migration before a full transfer?
Yes, Cart2Cart offers a free demo migration. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to a test Volusion store or a Cart2Cart test store. This helps you verify the migration accuracy and data integrity before committing to a full migration.
What additional options are available for Volusion migration?
Cart2Cart provides several additional options to customize your Volusion migration, including: Clear current data on Target Store before Migration, Preserve category IDs on Target Store, Preserve product image URLs, and Change products quantity to 100 on Target Store.
How long does a CSV to Volusion migration take?
The duration of your migration largely depends on the volume of data in your CSV files. A small store might take a few hours, while larger stores with extensive data could take longer. Cart2Cart's automated process is designed for efficiency, and you can monitor progress in real-time.
What kind of support does Cart2Cart offer?
Cart2Cart provides comprehensive support, including a detailed knowledge base, live chat, and email assistance. For complex migrations or those requiring custom solutions, you can opt for one of our Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) which include a dedicated account manager and technical engineers.
Will there be any downtime for my stores during the migration?
Cart2Cart is designed to minimize downtime. The data extraction from your CSV is offline, and the preparation for Volusion import also happens on our servers. You can continue operating your source store while the migration prepares. The only potential downtime would be during your manual import into Volusion, which you can schedule during off-peak hours.

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.
