You can estimate the price of your transfer with Cart2Cart using 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).

When you are satisfied with the Demo results, you can go on with the Full (paid) transfer.

No, your migrated osCommerce e-shop data isn't affected by the transfer at all. Actually, the data (products, customers, order history, etc.) is simply “copied”(exported) from osCommerce and “pasted” (imported) into your Zen Cart store database.

So, the data migration process is totally secure for the eCommerce website that is transferred and there is no risk of losing any of the info. We guarantee 100% uptime and data security during the migration via Cart2Cart database migration tool.

I had a client who had a lot of items in a Yahoo Store. We needed to move it out of there and move to Zen Cart. The migration was extremely easy and we were very happy with our service.

Just wanted to say what a fantastic service this is. Saved me hours of work and helped me to transfer my products and attributes to CS Cart from Zencart.



The support provided is also fantastic and helped me sort out my issues very quickly. I will be using this service again and highly recommend it to anyone. It’s a lot easier than messing about with Easy Populate and CSV files.



Thanks again for this great service and top notch support

Cart2cart worked good the first time I used it years ago to go from my old osCommerce site to Pinnacle Cart, I am now using it again to go from Pinnacle Cart to Shopify. Although URL redirects and some custom options would be nice. It gets the basic job done and frees up a lot of manual data entry.

I had used Cart2Cart 3 years ago for a migration from OSCommerce to Joomla/Virtuemart. I struggled with Virtuemart for 3 years and am sick of it. So remembering the good job they did 3 years ago, I had them migrate my data from VirtueMart to WooCommerce. Everything went smoothly except my photos didn’t get transferred correctly. I emailed them and gave them FTP access and they got everything fixed right up. I think they went out of their way to get my stuff up and going. I will use them again when I get sick of WooCommerce unless it works like it is supposed to

I recently hired Cart2Cart to migrate a very complex set of data from osCommerce to WooCommerce. I had them move over 30,000 items and 16,000 customers. Cart2Cart did an amazing job for me. I highly recommend them to anyone needing to migrate their website. Thank you Cart2Cart!

Brilliant…I needed to migrate from oscommerce to Prestashop and Cart2cart made it so very easy. I was doubtful at first so I ran the on-line demo which put me at ease as it so worked well that I went to the next stage and migrated the entire shop. Completed in minutes, no need for any support just followed the simple on-screen instructions and that’s all there was to it. Thank you it was worth every penny
