Database Dump Migration Service
Database Dump Migration allows moving the data from an SQL database dump into the new shopping cart.
Just provide your dump file, and Cart2Cart experts will do all the rest.
When You Might Need to Migrate Data From the Dump?
You’re worried about store security
and don’t want to grant access to your store to any 3rd parties
Your old store has been collapsed
And all the store data is left in the database dump
The automated migration is blocked by hosting
due to multiple requests sent to the server from our IPs over a short time
Your store isn’t available online
for any reason (it’s been hacked, broken down, etc)

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I risk losing data from my existing store during the migration?
The Source (current) Store data isn't affected by the migration at all. In layman's terms,
the data (products, customers, orders, etc.) is copied and pasted into your Target Store.
So, the migration process is totally safe for the migrated store, and there is no risk of losing any of the data. We guarantee 100% uptime and data security during the migration with Cart2Cart. In other words, you can keep selling while your Source Store data is migrated to the new platform.

Why is my migration taking so long?
The time of data migration depends on many outside factors we can’t control.
The reasons causing a slow transfer might vary for different types of shopping carts.
The typical issues we face:
The typical issues we face:
- with open source carts, there is a large amount of data, firewall limitations (make sure Cart2Cart IPs are all in your whitelist), and a hosting that disallows Cart2Cart to process the requests quickly or simply blocks them
- with hosted carts - API requests limit
- also, there are some peculiar platforms (open source and hosted ones) that forbid access to their databases/APIs or give it partially. The only way to get files out of such carts is through CSV export, and if you’re migrating from one of them - the runtime will depend solely on the number of transferable entities.
Can I migrate pictures from my database dump?
While moving your store from a database dump, image migration is not provided as a default
feature. To transfer your pictures, you should grant us access to a folder with images.
After the migration is finished, we will upload them to your store.
Sounds interesting, right?
I’ll be glad to answer all your questions.
