Your CSV File to OpenCart Migration in Detail

Migrating your store data from a CSV file to OpenCart with Cart2Cart is a straightforward process, broken down into a few simple steps:

  1. Connect Your Source (CSV File)

    Begin by selecting 'CSV File' as your Source Cart. You will then be prompted to upload your CSV file(s) containing your store data. Our wizard guides you through selecting the correct files for different entities like products, customers, and orders.

  2. Connect Your Target (OpenCart)

    Next, choose 'OpenCart' as your Target Cart. You will need to provide your OpenCart store's URL and select a connection method. OpenCart supports connection via the Cart2Cart Bridge (uploaded via FTP/SFTP) or by providing your admin user credentials for an automatic bridge upload. These details enable our service to securely import your data into your new OpenCart store.

The 'Next Step' button is highlighted in green.
  3. Select Data & Configure Additional Options

    Once both stores are connected, you can choose which data entities you wish to migrate, such as products, customers, and orders. You'll also have the opportunity to map your CSV fields to OpenCart fields and select various additional migration options to customize your transfer, ensuring all specific requirements are met.

  4. Run Demo & Full Migration

    Before committing to a 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 OpenCart store and ensure everything is transferred correctly. 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.
