Your Step-by-Step Migration Journey to Shopware

Migrating your store data from CSV to Shopware with Cart2Cart is designed for simplicity and efficiency. Follow these key steps to ensure a smooth transition:

  1. Connect Your Source (CSV File)

    Begin by specifying your source data as a CSV file. You will upload your CSV file directly through the Cart2Cart Migration Wizard. Our system will then parse your data, preparing it for mapping to your new Shopware store.

  2. Connect Your Target (Shopware)

    Next, select Shopware as your target platform. To establish a secure connection, you'll need to upload the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge files to your Shopware store's root directory via FTP/SFTP. This bridge acts as a secure gateway for data transfer.

Download and unpack connection_bridge.zip' with a 'Download Bridge' button, and '2. Upload 'bridge2cart' folder to your store's root (catalog) Read instructions'. An arrow points to the selected radio button for 'Upload Connection bridge'.

  3. Select Data Entities for Migration

    Choose precisely which data entities you wish to migrate from your CSV file to Shopware. The Cart2Cart wizard presents a clear list of supported entities, allowing you to select products, categories, customers, orders, and more.

  4. Configure Additional Migration Options

    Enhance your migration with a range of additional options. These can include preserving SEO URLs, migrating images from descriptions, clearing target store data, or changing product quantities. Tailor the migration to your specific needs.

A right sidebar shows a 'Get Assistance' button and an 'Instruction' box, offering contextual information. Navigation buttons for 'Previous Step', 'Skip Demo', and 'Start Demo Migration' are visible at the bottom.

  5. Map Your Data Fields

    For CSV migrations, data mapping is a crucial step. You will align the fields from your CSV file (e.g., product names, prices, descriptions) to the corresponding fields in your Shopware store. This ensures that all information is correctly categorized and displayed on your new platform.

    A screenshot of the 'Mapping Setup' screen, part of a migration wizard. It shows three collapsible sections: 'Required Fields Mapping' (expanded), 'Additional Fields Mapping' (collapsed, with an arrow pointing to it), and 'Products Attributes Mapping' (collapsed). The right sidebar provides instructions on mapping source file fields to target fields.

  6. Run a Free Demo Migration

    Before committing to a full transfer, perform a free demo migration. This moves a limited set of your data to Shopware, allowing you to review the results on both the frontend and backend of your new store. Verify data accuracy and functionality.
