Migrate from Mystore.no to Magento: A Detailed How-To Guide
Seamlessly Migrate Your E-commerce Store from Mystore.no to Magento
Planning to move your online store from Mystore.no to the robust and scalable Magento platform? This comprehensive guide will walk you through every critical step, ensuring a smooth transition of your valuable e-commerce data. While Mystore.no does not offer a direct API connection for automated migration tools, we'll demonstrate how to successfully transfer your store's essence by leveraging CSV file exports, providing you with a clear path to replatforming to Magento.
Magento is renowned for its powerful features, flexibility, and extensive customization options, making it an ideal choice for growing businesses seeking greater control and functionality. This transition, while requiring careful execution, unlocks a world of possibilities for enhanced user experience, advanced marketing tools, and robust backend management.
Prerequisites for a Successful Migration
Before initiating the data transfer, it's crucial to prepare both your source (Mystore.no) and target (Magento) platforms. Proper preparation minimizes potential downtime and ensures data integrity.
- Mystore.no (Source Store) Data Export: Since Mystore.no does not support a direct connection via a migration bridge, you will need to manually export your store's data into CSV files. Focus on exporting key entities such as products (including SKUs, variants, images, descriptions, metadata), product categories, customer data (names, addresses, order history), orders, and potentially blog posts or CMS pages. Ensure these CSV files are well-organized and include all necessary fields for your Magento store. It's also highly recommended to back up your entire Mystore.no store before any data export processes.
- Magento (Target Store) Installation: You need a fresh, fully installed Magento store (Version 1.1.0 or 2.0.0 supported) ready for data import. It's generally best to perform the migration on an empty Magento installation to avoid conflicts with existing data. Ensure your hosting environment meets Magento's system requirements for optimal performance post-migration.
- FTP/SFTP Access to Magento: To establish a connection between your migration tool and your new Magento store, you will need FTP or SFTP access. This is essential for uploading the necessary 'Connection Bridge' file to your Magento root directory. If you're unsure about this, refer to our guide on What is a root folder and where can I find it?
- Magento Password Migration Module: For seamless customer experience, migrating customer passwords is vital. Magento requires a specific module for this functionality. Be prepared to install this module as part of your migration strategy.
- Review Your Current Data: Take this opportunity to clean up any outdated or irrelevant data in your Mystore.no store before exporting. This ensures you only migrate clean, valuable information, contributing to better data integrity on your new Magento platform.
- Understand Magento's Structure: Familiarize yourself with how Magento handles product attributes, categories, customer groups, and order statuses. This understanding will be invaluable during the data mapping phase.
- For more detailed insights on preparing your store, you can consult our How to prepare Target store for migration? and How to prepare Source store for migration? FAQs.
Performing the Migration: A Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these steps using an automated migration tool to facilitate your Mystore.no to Magento transfer via CSV files.
Step 1: Start Your Migration
Begin by navigating to the migration wizard interface. This is your starting point for setting up the data transfer between your platforms. You'll typically find options to start a DIY migration or inquire about assisted services.
Step 2: Source Store Setup (Mystore.no via CSV)
Since Mystore.no is not directly supported by a bridge connection, you will select the 'CSV File to Cart' option as your Source Cart Type. You will then upload the CSV files you exported from your Mystore.no store, containing all your product, customer, and order data.
- Connection Method: File only (CSV File to Cart)
- Supported Entities (via CSV): Products, Products_Categories, Products_Manufacturers, Products_Reviews, Customers, Orders, Invoices, Taxes, Stores, Coupons, CMS_Pages, Blogs, Blogs_Posts.
Step 3: Target Store Setup (Magento)
Next, configure your Target Store. Select 'Magento' as your Target Cart Type from the dropdown list and provide your Magento store's URL. The system will then prompt you to download a 'Connection Bridge' file. This bridge is crucial for securely connecting the migration tool to your Magento installation. Unzip the file and upload the 'bridge2cart' folder to the root directory of your Magento store via FTP/SFTP.
- Connection Method: Bridge only
- Connection Fields: adminLogin, adminPwd, adminUrl, url, bridgeLocation, token, dbTablesPrefix, dbPossiblePrefixes, dbLocalDumpPath, dbCharSet.
- Plugin Requirements: Bridge installation required.
For more information on providing secure access details, please see The Short & Essential Guide to Access Credentials for Cart2Cart.
Step 4: Select Data Entities for Migration
In this crucial step, you choose which specific data entities you wish to transfer from your Mystore.no CSV files to Magento. You can select all available entities or meticulously pick only those relevant to your new store.
- Supported Entities (to Magento): Products, Products_Categories, Products_Manufacturers, Products_Reviews, Customers, Orders, Invoices, Taxes, Stores, Coupons, CMS_Pages.
Step 5: Configure Additional Options & Data Mapping
This stage allows you to customize your migration and ensure data is correctly interpreted by Magento.
Additional Options:
Review and select various additional migration options to enhance your data transfer. These options directly impact the quality and integrity of your new store.
- Migrate Images in Description: Essential for preserving product descriptions.
- Clear Target: If you want to remove any existing demo data in your Magento store before migration, select this. Read more about Clear current data on Target store before migration option.
- Preserve Customer IDs, Preserve Order IDs: Highly recommended for maintaining historical data relationships and for SEO purposes. Learn more about How Preserve IDs options can be used?
- Create Variants from Attributes: If your Mystore.no products have variations, this ensures they are correctly structured in Magento.
- SEO URLs & Create 301 SEO URLs: Critical for preserving your existing search engine rankings and link equity. This creates permanent redirects from your old Mystore.no URLs to your new Magento URLs.
- Password Migration: Requires the specific Magento module mentioned in the prerequisites.
- Migrate Store Config: Transfers core store settings.
- Limitations & Notices (Magento): Be aware that a Reviews table dependency might exist, and password migration requires a specific module. Reindex recommended after migration.
Data Mapping:
Accurately map your Mystore.no customer groups and order statuses to their corresponding fields in Magento. This ensures consistency and proper categorization of your customer data and order workflows in the new platform.
Step 6: Run Demo Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, execute a demo migration. This will transfer a limited number of entities (e.g., 10 products, 10 customers, 10 orders) from your Mystore.no CSV files to your Magento store. The demo allows you to:
- Verify the accuracy of the data transfer.
- Check image migration and product variants.
- Ensure customer and order information is intact.
- Identify and address any potential issues early on.
Step 7: Full Migration
Once you are satisfied with the demo results and have addressed any identified issues, proceed with the full migration. At this stage, you may also consider a Migration Insurance Service for added peace of mind, offering multiple remigrations within a set period. Learn more about How Migration Insurance works? The system will provide a summary of all entities to be transferred and the total cost.
The full migration process will now begin, transferring all selected data to your Magento store. You can monitor its progress through the migration wizard interface.
Post-Migration Steps
The migration doesn't end when the data transfer is complete. Several critical post-migration steps are necessary to ensure your new Magento store is fully operational and optimized.
- Thorough Data Verification: Rigorously check all migrated data. This includes products (SKUs, pricing, images, descriptions, variants), product categories, customer accounts, order history, reviews, CMS pages, and any other entities you transferred. Ensure everything is in its correct place and displays accurately.
- Reindex Magento Data: Magento explicitly recommends reindexing after a migration. This optimizes your database for performance and ensures all new data is correctly searchable and displayed on your storefront.
- Configure SEO and Redirects: Verify that all 301 redirects are properly implemented to maintain your SEO rankings and link equity from Mystore.no. Check canonical tags, meta titles, descriptions, and sitemaps. Update your Google Search Console with the new sitemap.
- Test All Store Functionality: Conduct extensive testing of your new Magento store. This includes:
- Placing test orders (checkout process, payment gateways, shipping options).
- Customer account creation and login.
- Searching for products.
- Testing all contact forms and interactive elements.
- Verifying third-party integrations (ERP, CRM, marketing tools).
- Customize Theme and Design: Apply and customize your chosen Magento theme to reflect your brand identity. Ensure responsive design across all devices for an optimal user experience.
- Install and Configure Extensions: Reinstall any necessary third-party Magento extensions or plugins that provide functionalities not native to Magento or that were present on your Mystore.no store.
- Update DNS Records: Once you are completely satisfied with your new Magento store, update your domain's DNS records to point to your new Magento hosting. Plan this step carefully to minimize downtime.
- Monitor Performance: After going live, continuously monitor your store's performance, load times, and error logs.
- Consider Additional Services: If new data was generated on Mystore.no during the migration, consider using a Recent Data Migration Service to sync it to Magento.

Many of my customers have Magento 1 stores. This year Magento will stop supporting this system and because of this these customers need to migrate to another system. Migration can be difficult and very time consuming process. But then i found Cart2Cart. There solution is the best and affordable. With the first migration there where some problems, but i did made some mistakes with filling in the correct fields to get a connection between the current and the target store. After starting a chat these problems where fixed very quickly. Support is very good and there solution is very affordable. The perfect solution!
Review source
We were in need of migrating 10.000 orders & customers from a PrestaShop site to a Magento site, already being in use. We therefore needed to be extra careful not to erase any of the existing data, which is why we seeked out the service of Cart2Cart. With a readily available customer service providing guidance and support during the entire process, we felt secure in the choice of Cart2Cart. We also enjoyed the possibility to do a test migration to be able to verify the values, before going ahead with a full migration. The full migration was surprisingly quick, within just a couple of minutes we had successfully transfered all the data, without experiencing any issues on the site. I’d recommend Cart2Cart to anyone who are looking to simplify the process of migrating.
