How to Migrate to OpenCart with Cart2Cart: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you want to migrate to OpenCart with Cart2Cart, follow these instructions:

Step 1: Set Up Source and Target Carts for Your eCommerce Data Migration

First, you'll need to connect your current store (the source cart) and your new OpenCart store (the target cart) to Cart2Cart. Choose your current shopping cart platform from the dropdown menu and provide the store’s URL address (if migrating from an open-source cart like Magento or WooCommerce) or the store’s API details (if migrating from a hosted solution like Shopify or BigCommerce). Then, specify OpenCart as your Target cart and enter the required store details (OpenCart admin URL, login, and password). Once done, click the Choose Entities button to proceed with your eCommerce data migration.
