Frequently Asked Questions

Can I migrate languages to PrestaShop?

Cart2Cart supports multilingual migration across different solutions. Still, you should look up the migrated data table above to see if this kind of move is available for your migration case.

Is it possible to export customers to PrestaShop?

To find out if the tool can migrate your VirtueMart store customers to PrestaShop, please check the list of transferable entities. Then, simply click the Customers checkbox while configuring the transfer in the Migration Wizard to indicate you’d like to move the customer data.

Can I retry Demo migration?

Yes, Cart2Cart data migration tool allows the users to restart Demo Migrations as many times as needed to different Target platforms. In order to do it - do the following:

Go to to your Cart2Cart account.
Step to My Migrations List.
Find the required migration where the demo is performed, and click the "Continue Migration" button.
Once done, go back to the second step of the Migration Wizard "Demo Migration" and simply press "Start Demo Migration" button. The Demo data transfer will start over again.

How much do you charge for the migration service?

The Cart2Cart pricing is flexible. The replatforming cost depends on:

source platform type (the one you export the data from)
target platform type (the one you migrate to)
amount of entities to move -namely, the count of products, customers, and orders.

You can estimate the cost of your replatforming with Cart2Cart using the Migration Estimator.

Is it possible to try the Cart2Cart migration tool for free?

Yes, the Cart2Cart database migration service offers a free unlimited Demo Migration feature (test transfer). It allows to import a limited amount of data records (up to 10 products, customers, orders and other data related to them) from VirtueMart to your new PrestaShop shopping cart in around 10-15 minutes. When you are happy with the Demo results, you can go on with the Full (paid) replatforming.

Can the migration negatively influence my running store?

Absolutely not. The transfer process doesn’t impact your Source eCommerce platform in any way. You can keep selling as always while the data is being moved.

Do I risk losing data from my existing VirtueMart store after the migration?

No, your migrated VirtueMart store info isn't impacted by the transfer at all. Basically, the data (products, customers, order history, etc.) is only “copied”(exported) from VirtueMart and “pasted” (imported) into your PrestaShop store database.

So, the data transfer process is totally safe for the e-shop that is transferred and there is zero risk of losing any of the data. We guarantee 100% uptime and data security during the migration with Cart2Cart database migration tool. In other words, you can keep selling while your Source Store data is being moved to the new platform.

How do I perform a product export from VirtueMart to PrestaShop store?

To automatically import your products from VirtueMart to PrestaShop, simply check the needed checkbox(Products) while creating your migration.

How do I export orders from VirtueMart platform to PrestaShop?

To export the orders from VirtueMart to PrestaShop, you should click the necessary option (Orders) in Migration Wizard during migration configuration and your VirtueMart orders will be moved to PrestaShop right away.

Does the migration process interfere with my VirtueMart store functionality?

No, the store data transfer doesn’t impact either the speed, or the performance of your current VirtueMart e-store. The Cart2Cart migration service just exports the records from your VirtueMart e-store and imports it into the new PrestaShop one. It doesn’t influence the e-store in any way, so you can keep selling as usual.

Can I export the VirtueMart database to PrestaShop?

Please, follow these steps to migrate your VirtueMart e-shop database from to PrestaShop:

Choose VirtueMart and PrestaShop carts from the list.
Select the data you want to move to PrestaShop and pick the extra migration options.
Begin free Demo transfer to see the service in action.

Great service which allowed us to transfer products, customers and orders database of our customer from Virtuemart to Prestashop 2 times: a first time in order to prepare the new website and a second time in order to update new customers and new orders placed in the meantime. Without Cart2Cart this would have been more complicated… A great customer service also, very available and very competent. Thanks to them

Cart2Cart helped me with several PrestaShop migrations. They always give good support, ready to listen and help if needed. I migrated several stores with 15000 products, with no problem.

This is the best migration tool I know.

This was the only service that worked for X-Cart5 to PrestaShop migration. Other paid service (even a paid “pro” module on PrestaShop store) revealed completely useless. With Cart2Cart I was able to test migration and quickly see any issue on the target shop. I recommend it

Brilliant…I needed to migrate from oscommerce to Prestashop and Cart2cart made it so very easy. I was doubtful at first so I ran the on-line demo which put me at ease as it so worked well that I went to the next stage and migrated the entire shop. Completed in minutes, no need for any support just followed the simple on-screen instructions and that’s all there was to it. Thank you it was worth every penny
