Your WooCommerce to osCommerce Migration in Detail
Migrating your store data with Cart2Cart is a straightforward process designed for maximum efficiency and minimal effort on your part. Follow these simple steps to transfer your store from WooCommerce to osCommerce:
-
Connect Your Source WooCommerce Store
Begin by selecting WooCommerce as your Source Cart in the Cart2Cart migration wizard. You'll then need to provide your store's URL and choose a connection method. For WooCommerce, you can typically connect via API by providing your Consumer Key and Consumer Secret, or by uploading the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge via FTP/SFTP.
Connect your WooCommerce store using API credentials. -
Connect Your Target osCommerce Store
Next, select osCommerce as your Target Cart. Provide your new osCommerce store's URL. For osCommerce, the primary connection method is by uploading the Cart2Cart Connection Bridge via FTP/SFTP. You will download a ZIP archive, unpack it, and upload the 'bridge2cart' folder to your osCommerce store's root directory.
Upload the Cart2Cart Bridge to your osCommerce target store. -
Select Data Entities for Migration
Once both stores are connected, you'll proceed to the 'Entities Selection' step. Here, you can choose which specific data entities you wish to migrate from WooCommerce to osCommerce. This includes products, customers, orders, categories, and more. You can also configure various additional migration options to customize your data transfer.
-
Run a Free Demo Migration
Before launching the full migration, we highly recommend performing a free Demo Migration. This transfers a limited number of entities (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to your osCommerce store, allowing you to review the results and ensure everything is transferred accurately and as expected. This step helps build confidence in the full migration process.
-
Launch Full Migration
After you've reviewed and are satisfied with your Demo Migration results, you can proceed to launch the Full Migration. Cart2Cart will then transfer all your selected data from WooCommerce to osCommerce, ensuring a complete and accurate move of your entire store. Our team monitors the process, and you'll receive notifications on its progress.

WooCommerce to osCommerce Migration FAQ
How long does a WooCommerce to osCommerce migration take?
The duration of your migration depends on the total volume of data you need to transfer. A free Demo Migration, which transfers a limited number of entities, typically takes 15-30 minutes. A Full Migration can range from a few hours to several days for very large stores.
Will my store experience downtime during the migration?
No, Cart2Cart ensures zero downtime during your WooCommerce to osCommerce migration. Your current WooCommerce store remains fully operational throughout the process, allowing you to continue selling and managing your business without interruption.
What data can I migrate from WooCommerce to osCommerce?
You can migrate a wide range of entities, including Product Categories, Products, Customers, Customer Groups, Orders, Order Statuses, Reviews, Manufacturers, Taxes, and Stores. For a detailed list, please refer to the "What Data Can Be Migrated" section above.
Can I test the migration before committing to a full transfer?
Absolutely! Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration that allows you to transfer a limited set of your data (e.g., 10-20 products, customers, orders) to your osCommerce store. This is an excellent way to verify the migration accuracy and ensure everything meets your expectations before proceeding with a full migration.
What if I encounter issues during or after the migration?
Cart2Cart provides dedicated 24/7 customer support to assist you at every stage of your migration. Additionally, you can opt for our Migration Insurance Plan, which offers free re-migrations and data updates within a specified period, safeguarding your data against unforeseen issues.
Is it possible to preserve customer passwords during the migration?
While WooCommerce supports exporting customer passwords, osCommerce, as a target platform, does not natively support the direct import of customer passwords due to its architecture. Therefore, customer passwords cannot be directly migrated to osCommerce, and your customers will need to reset them on the new store.
Can I keep my SEO URLs and 301 redirects?
Yes, Cart2Cart offers additional options to migrate your categories and products SEO URLs and to create 301 redirects on your target osCommerce store after migration. These features are crucial for preserving your search engine rankings and ensuring a seamless user experience by preventing broken links.
