Frequently Asked Questions

How do I ensure data accuracy after migrating from ShopTab to OpenCart?

We recommend performing a demo migration to preview a sample of your data on the new OpenCart store. After the full transfer, a comprehensive post-migration audit confirms all entities are accurate and correctly mapped.

Will my ShopTab store go offline during migration to OpenCart?

No, your ShopTab store remains active. The migration, conducted via a secure Connection Bridge (required for both platforms), happens on a separate server. Downtime is minimal, primarily during DNS cutover, ensuring a smooth transition to OpenCart. Learn more about zero downtime.

Your ShopTab and OpenCart store data is secure. We use an encrypted Connection Bridge, process data on a secure external server, and delete all information post-migration. Your data is never stored, ensuring confidentiality and integrity. Read our Security Policy.

How can I preserve SEO rankings when moving from ShopTab to OpenCart?

SEO rankings are protected via 301 redirects and metadata transfer (titles, descriptions). While ShopTab has limitations regarding SEO options for blogs, we focus on preserving product and category URLs to ensure your organic traffic shifts smoothly to OpenCart. Explore post-migration SEO tips.

Is it possible to migrate customer passwords from ShopTab to OpenCart?

Yes, customer passwords can be migrated from ShopTab to OpenCart. This often requires a specific 'Passwords Migration' plugin/module for both bridge-based platforms to ensure a secure transfer and seamless login for your customers. Learn about password migration.

Can my ShopTab store's design or theme be transferred to OpenCart?

I have done my first successfully migration from Virtuemart to Opencart. I must say that this service saved me a lot of work and scripting. The demo possibility is perfect to try out, trial and error before committing.



This was the perfect solution for me and I am going to use it again very soon, only this time Virtuemart to Prestashop. Looking forward to use your service again.

I needed to switch from Interspire to OpenCart, after doing a little bit of research I’ve understood there’s no easy way to import all the data without hours of work so I’ve asked the guys from Cart2Cart to do it for me. Everything went smooth without any problems. Will recommend them in the future

I just used the demo to migrate a few products, customers etc. All I can say is WOW. Does exactly what it says, not tweaking to do! The demo only took a few minutes and is VERY easy for the end user. I am going to do the full migration now. I very much recommend this product! I went from Virtuemart 2 to Opencart by the way.
