How to Migrate Customer Passwords to Magento 2 Using Cart2Cart

To securely migrate customer passwords to your new Magento store during your data migration, install the Cart2Cart Magento 2 Passwords Migration Plugin. This ensures a smooth and secure transfer of customer credentials. Follow these steps:

  1. Download the Cart2Cart Magento 2 Passwords Migration Plugin.
  2. Access your Magento store's directory using an FTP client (e.g., FileZilla) and extract the downloaded .zip file to the root folder.
  3. Connect to your store via SSH and run the following commands in the given order:
php -f bin/magento module:enable --clear-static-content Cart2Cart_PasswordMigrationToMagento2
php -f bin/magento setup:upgrade
php -f bin/magento setup:di:compile

(This command may require increasing the memory_limit PHP directive in your php.ini file.)

After running these commands, the plugin should be functioning correctly. Your customers can now log in to your Magento store using their existing credentials after the data migration is complete.

Important: We strongly recommend keeping the Cart2Cart: Password Migration to Magento 2 Plugin activated until all your customers have logged in at least once. Afterward, you can disable or remove the plugin.
