What is the cost of transfer with Cart2Cart data migration service?

The Cart2Cart pricing is flexible. The migration cost depends on:
  • source platform type (the one you export the data from)
  • target platform type (the one you migrate to)
  • number of types to import -namely, the count of products, customers, and orders.
You can estimate the cost of your migration with Cart2Cart with the help of the Migration Estimator.

Can I see how the service works without paying for it?

Yes, the Cart2Cart database migration service offers a free unlimited Demo Migration feature (test transfer). It permits to migrate a limited amount of data entities (up to 10 products, customers, orders and other data related to them) from Zen Cart to your new OpenCart shopping cart in around 10-15 minutes. When you are satisfied with the Demo results, you can move on with the Full (paid) migration.

Will the migration affect my existing store?

Absolutely not. The migration process doesn’t impact your Source shopping platform in any way. You can go on selling as always while the data is being transferred.

Will my migrated Zen Cart store data be deleted after the migration?

No, your migrated Zen Cart eCommerce website database isn't impacted by the replatforming at all. In layman's terms, the data (products, customers, order history, etc.) is simply “copied”(exported) from Zen Cart and “pasted” (imported) into your new store database.

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

Does the data migration process influence my Zen Cart store performance?

No, the store data transfer doesn’t harm either the speed, or the performance of your existing Zen Cart e-store. The Cart2Cart migration service just “copies” the data from your Zen Cart e-store and imports it into the new OpenCart one. It doesn’t influence the e-store in any way, so it can run as usual.

  • Select Zen Cart and OpenCart platforms from the list.
  • Select the data you want to migrate to OpenCart and pick the extra migration options.

I have done my first successfully migration from Virtuemart to Opencart. I must say that this service saved me a lot of work and scripting. The demo possibility is perfect to try out, trial and error before committing.



This was the perfect solution for me and I am going to use it again very soon, only this time Virtuemart to Prestashop. Looking forward to use your service again.

I needed to switch from Interspire to OpenCart, after doing a little bit of research I’ve understood there’s no easy way to import all the data without hours of work so I’ve asked the guys from Cart2Cart to do it for me. Everything went smooth without any problems. Will recommend them in the future

I just used the demo to migrate a few products, customers etc. All I can say is WOW. Does exactly what it says, not tweaking to do! The demo only took a few minutes and is VERY easy for the end user. I am going to do the full migration now. I very much recommend this product! I went from Virtuemart 2 to Opencart by the way.

I can’t say anything but EXCELLENT. These guys know their job and do it with perfectness. I was migrating from the ZenCart store to Magento 2, and they helped me through the whole process. Especially, I want to thank Lena and Nina, as they were really helpful with all my concerns and doubts. Support is the best. That’s what I call SUPER CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I had close to 8,000 products in a ZenCart store that I needed to migrate to Shopify. C2C did it all for me quickly and inexpensively. It’s the best solution out there that I’ve found to move from one eCommerce platform to another.

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.

It’s amazing how Cart2Cart was able to move products (many with tons of variants), images, orders, and more flawlessly from ZenCart to Shopify. It saved many many hours of what would have been imperfect and frustrating labor. Bravo!

We switched from ZenCart to 3DCart and was skeptical about doing the manual migration but Cart2Cart was there with technical online chat every step of the way and it was a smooth, easy and affordable transition. THANK YOU so much! Your support technicians were friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful.
