Your CSV File to CSV File Migration Process in Detail
Cart2Cart streamlines your data transfer, even when using CSV files as your migration method. Here’s a step-by-step guide to how your data will move from your source CSV to your target CSV output:
-
1. Initiate Your Migration
Begin by clicking the "Create New Migration" button in your Cart2Cart account. This starts a fresh migration wizard, ready for your custom data transfer.
-
2. Configure Your Source (CSV File)
Select "CSV File" as your Source Shopping Cart. You will then upload your prepared CSV files containing your Ubercart data. Our system will process these files to extract your store entities.
Note: While the screenshot below shows general file upload, for CSV migration, you'll specifically upload your data files in the designated section.
-
3. Configure Your Target (CSV File)
Choose "CSV File" as your Target Shopping Cart. This indicates that Cart2Cart will process your data and prepare it for export into a new set of CSV files, ready for import into your aMember Pro platform or any other system that supports CSV imports.
-
4. Select Data & Map Fields
In the "Entities Selection" step, you'll choose which data types (products, customers, orders, etc.) you wish to migrate. Crucially, you'll then map the fields from your source CSV to the corresponding fields for your target CSV output. This ensures every piece of data finds its correct place.
-
5. Run a Free Demo Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, run a free demo migration. This transfers a limited set of your data, allowing you to review the results and ensure everything is mapped correctly and appears as expected in your generated CSV files or a Cart2Cart test store.
-
6. Launch Full Migration
Once you're satisfied with the demo results, proceed to launch your full data migration. Cart2Cart will then process all your selected data, generating comprehensive CSV files ready for your aMember Pro import, ensuring a complete and accurate transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions about CSV File to CSV File Migration
How long does a CSV File to CSV File migration take?
The duration of your migration largely depends on the volume of data you're transferring. A free Demo Migration typically takes just a few minutes. For a full migration, while Cart2Cart is optimized for speed, the total time will vary based on the number of entities (products, customers, orders) and any additional options selected.
Will there be any downtime during the migration process?
Cart2Cart is designed to ensure minimal to no downtime for your live stores. Your source store remains fully operational during the data extraction. For a CSV to CSV migration, the process involves exporting data to CSV files and then preparing them for your target platform, which can often be done without affecting your live site.
What types of data can I migrate from CSV File to CSV File?
You can migrate a comprehensive range of data entities, including Products (with descriptions, images, variants, attributes), Product Categories, Customers (with addresses, groups), Orders (with statuses, fulfillment info), Manufacturers, Product Reviews, Coupons, CMS Pages, Blogs & Posts, Tax Configuration, Invoices, Credit Memos, Shipments, SEO URLs, and more. The specific data points depend on what's available in your source CSV and supported by your target platform's CSV import capabilities.
Can I test the migration before performing a full transfer?
Absolutely! Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration feature. This allows you to transfer a limited number of entities to a Cart2Cart test store or generate a sample of your target CSV files. This way, you can review the results and ensure accuracy before proceeding with your full migration.
What kind of support is available if I encounter issues?
Cart2Cart provides comprehensive support. If you purchase one of our Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate), you'll receive a dedicated account manager and access to a team of technical engineers.

How is the cost of a CSV File to CSV File migration calculated?
The migration cost is primarily determined by the total number of data entities (e.g., products, customers, orders) you choose to migrate. Any additional options or services, such as Migration Insurance or specific customizations, will add to the final price. You'll see a clear estimate during the setup process.
