Data Migration
to/from CSV.File

Sure. With the Cart2Cart service, you can launch your CSV.file migration fully automatedly. Just specify СSV as your Source or Target cart type, choose the data you want to transfer to/from CSV, and once happy with the Demo outcome, launch the Full migration.

Due to technical peculiarities of certain shopping carts supported by Cart2Cart, you will have to upload .csv /.xml files which contain transferrable data types to the Migration Wizard manually. Since every shopping cart is unique, the structure of entity files (products, customers, orders, etc.) and the list of mandatory fields within the files may vary. To ensure high-quality and accurate data migration, Cart2Cart requires a specific file structure. You can find the templates here.

Due to some shopping carts peculiarities, you must export CSV files to perform the migration. That’s why before migration, it is recommended to check if your shopping cart allows export files. Here is a list of such carts, and the easiest way to do that:

• Volusion (remember, you have to be subscribed to the Plus or Advanced plan)
• AbleCommerce
• Big Cartel
• Actinic

To check the result of your Demo migration, it is best to compare the CSV. file with your Source store data (i.e., products) and the corresponding migrated entities in your Target store admin section.

Cart2Cart performs the migration using a separate secure Hetzner server, and the data is not stored after the migration. Besides, Cart2Cart does not migrate credit card information and passwords. We use secure HTTPS protocol for all connections; only authorized staff can access the migration process. Find more info in our Security Policy

Of course. You can close your browser window after your Recent Data Migration has started. Your account's "My Migrations" page reflects the current migration status.
