So, to perform the migration from Big Cartel to WooCommerce, follow these few simple steps:
Prepare WooCommerce Store
Establish a WooCommerce store
First of all, register a WooCommerce account. Alternatively, if you're still hesitant, whether WooCommerce will suit your needs, use our free Migration Preview Service. This option allows business owners to perform Demo migration of a limited number of entities from their current store to Cart2Cart's test store (please note that it will be live for 3 days). All you have to do is check the result of data transfer and then proceed with the Full Migration.
Configure the newly-established store
Make sure to install all the necessary plugins that will ease the process of replatforming:
- If you want to import all the customers' passwords, download free Cart2Cart WooCommerce Passwords Migration Plugin and choose the additional option "Migrate customers' passwords" in the Migration Wizard. In case you have any questions, please, follow this guide.
- Set up WordPress Multilingual Plugin to migrate multiple languages to your future WooCommerce store. Check the step-by-step instructions on how to install the extension.
- To preserve your SEO positions, we suggest you choose the additional options "Create the 301 redirects on your target store after migration" and "Migrate categories and products SEO URLs." Also, it is necessary to install Woo's Redirection plugin and a free WordPress SEO Plugin.
- To migrate information on manufacturers and images, you can download the following extensions - WordPress.org (free) or WooThemes.com (paid).
- Product Add-Ons plugin will help you transfer the existing product variants to your WooCommerce store.
- If you want to save order IDs, select the "Preserve order IDs on the Target Store" option and download the free WooCommerce Sequential Order Number module.
- To transfer custom order statuses, you have to use free YITH WooCommerce Custom Order Status plugin.
Set up Big Cartel and WooCommerce carts
Setup your Source store
Choose Big Cartel from the drop-down menu. Next, you'll have to provide the store's URL.
Configure Target cart
To configure your WooCommerce cart, simply copy the admin URL, login, and password to the corresponding fields.

Select data and extra options for your transfer
Choose the data types you want to import from Big Cartel to WooCommerce, as well as the additional migration options (in needed).
Please note that if you've installed some of the abovementioned plugins, remember to tick the necessary box:
- Preserve order IDs on Target Store - choose this if you've installed the WooCommerce Sequential Order Number module.
- Create 301 redirects on your target store after migration - it requires a Redirection plugin.
- Migrate customers' passwords - only works together with Cart2Cart WooCommerce Passwords Migration Plugin.
- Migrate categories and products SEO URLs - WordPress SEO Plugin is needed.
Run demo migration
If you've completed all of the abovementioned steps, proceed to Free Demo Migration. It allows users to transfer up to 10 products with related data within just 15 minutes.
Launch Full migration
After the test migration is complete, check its results. If everything works correctly and you are satisfied with our service, launch Full Migration by clicking the "Start Migration" button.
Post-Migration "To Do" List
Once Full migration from Big Cartel to WooCommerce is complete, we advise you to do the following:
- Check your new store for random errors (e.g., inspect the visibility and correct categorization of products, perform a few searches, go through all the links, etc.).
- Make some test purchases to ensure that everything works correctly, and your customers won't face any problems in the future.
- Go to WooCommerce Store and install all the necessary extensions and plugins that will add functionality and extra features that are not included in the custom version of WooCommerce.

My migration from BigCommerce to WooCommerce was so easy, so time-saving, and so successful that I can’t believe all that work was done with one click!
Thanks to Cart2Cart for a fantastic service. Totally recommended!

I had a lot of pre-sales questions about the plugin and the migration. The service provided was absolutely perfect, quick and in-depth responses. My final migration has just finished and it did so in 27 minutes to be precise. If you are looking for the perfect, headache-free tool for your (in my case Magento to Woocommerce) migration, look no further, THIS IS IT! For those who expected such a plugin to be for free, are you kidding me?!?!

I’ve used the service/software for two website migrations (ZenCart to WooCommerce). The second one failed, also because of my own error, but the supprt was great and Cart2Cart team helped getting it all working flawless.
Very impressed by this software and even more by the aftersales support. Will use again when needed.

I moved a site from Jigoshop Version 2 (the jigoshop upgrade from v1 to v2 was poor) to WooCommerce and I am very happy with the results. My original Jigoshop site had been hacked so it wasn’t ideal, but Cart to Cart were very helpful and their support was very good. 🙂

Excellent Support for the non expert who needs a lot of assistance they spent as much time as I needed to insure I got my migration. The upload went well after the Demo. Customer service was there when I had questions or issues to fine tune after purchase. I would recommend if you need to import / migrate your Products from Shopify to Woocommerce in Word Press as I did.

Company went above and beyond to handle the migration, even doing 2 additional trials to get it right.
The project was involved as it had a large product count, user count, and orders going back 5 years. This involved doing the CMS and Shopping cart migration from Drupal / Ubercart to WordPress / Woocommerce.
I had the new site up the same day as the migration and only had to do some fine tuning, menus setup, and correct some links.
Pleasure to have a second migration done with this company.

Tried to do the data migration myself and failed even after spending so many hours attempting different things. With Cart2Cart the data import from 3dcart to WooCommerce was quick and easy. Support response time was great and replies were really helpful. Definitely worth the cost and it saved me many more headaches
Review source
I needed to migrate a lot of product data (title, price, description, images) from an old Mojishop installation on Joomla to a new shop system based on Woocommerce on WordPress. The setup was very easy (you need FTP access on your webspace).
Before you pay for the great service you can make several test migrations. It turned out there were some product information missing on the new system, because my data base had a custom name. I did not find out this by my own.
So I contacted the customer support of Cart2Cart. I got immediately help and two days later a custom solution for my problem.
This is a service! Thanks a lot.
