Your CSV to CSV Migration Process in Detail
Cart2Cart simplifies the intricate process of transforming your e-commerce data from one CSV format to another. Follow these straightforward steps to ensure a smooth and accurate data transfer:
-
Initiate Your New Migration
Begin by clicking the 'Create New Migration' button in your Cart2Cart account. This action starts a fresh migration wizard, guiding you through the entire setup process for your CSV data transformation.
-
Upload Your Source CSV File(s)
Instead of connecting a traditional e-commerce platform, this step involves securely uploading your existing CSV files to Cart2Cart. Our system will then process these files to identify the data entities available for migration.
-
Specify Target Data Structure (for Mapping)
While your final output is a CSV file, Cart2Cart needs to understand the desired structure of your target data. You'll specify the target platform or schema that your new CSV files should conform to, which is crucial for accurate field mapping in the next step.
-
Select Data Entities for Transfer
On the 'Entities Selection' page, you'll precisely choose which types of data (entities) you wish to migrate from your source CSV. This includes products, customers, orders, and more. The system will highlight dependencies to ensure data integrity.
-
Map Your Data Fields
This is a critical step for CSV migrations. In the 'Mapping Setup' section, you'll align the fields from your source CSV with the corresponding fields in your target data structure. This ensures custom fields, product attributes, and other unique data points are accurately transferred.
-
Choose Additional Migration Options
Enhance your migration by selecting various additional options. These can include preserving specific IDs, migrating images embedded in descriptions, or handling product variants, depending on the complexity of your data.
-
Run a Free Demo Migration
Before committing to a full transfer, execute a free demo migration. This transfers a limited set of your CSV data, allowing you to review the results and verify the accuracy of the data transformation and mapping.
-
Initiate Full Migration & Download Your Target CSV
Once you're satisfied with the demo results, proceed with the full migration. Cart2Cart will process all your data, and upon completion, you'll be able to download your fully transformed CSV files, ready for import into your new platform.

How does Cart2Cart facilitate CSV to CSV data migration?
Cart2Cart streamlines the process by allowing you to upload your source CSV files, then configure how this data maps to your desired target structure. Our wizard guides you through selecting entities, mapping fields, and choosing additional options. After processing, you can download the transformed data as new CSV files, ready for import into your target platform.
What types of data can I migrate between CSV files?
With Cart2Cart, you can transfer a wide range of entities, including Products, Product Categories, Manufacturers, Product Reviews, Customers, Customer Groups, Orders, Order Statuses, Order Fulfillment Statuses, Coupons, CMS Pages, Blogs, Posts, Tax Configuration, Invoices, Credit Memos, and Shipments. The specific data fields available for migration depend on the content of your source CSV.
Can I perform a test migration from CSV to CSV?
Yes, Cart2Cart offers a free Demo Migration. You can upload a subset of your CSV data, configure the migration, and then review the results on a Cart2Cart-provided test store or download a sample target CSV. This allows you to verify data accuracy and mapping before proceeding with a full migration.
What happens if I need to re-migrate or update data after the initial CSV transfer?
Cart2Cart offers a Migration Insurance Plan, which includes options for 1, 2, or 3 remigrations and data updates within a specified period (e.g., 14 days for the basic plan). This allows you to re-run the migration or transfer new data that appeared in your source CSV after the initial transfer, ensuring your target data remains current. You can also choose to skip this insurance.
Will there be any downtime for my store during the CSV migration?
Since CSV to CSV migration typically involves uploading files to Cart2Cart and downloading processed files, there is generally no direct downtime for your live e-commerce store during the Cart2Cart processing phase. Downtime would only occur on your live store if you are importing the final CSVs into an active store and choose to take it offline during that specific import process. Cart2Cart's service itself is non-intrusive.
How does Cart2Cart handle custom fields or unique data structures in my CSV files?
Cart2Cart provides a flexible 'Mapping Setup' step where you can manually align fields from your source CSV to the corresponding fields in your target data structure. This includes mapping required fields, additional (optional) fields, product attributes, customer groups, and order statuses, ensuring that even unique data is transferred accurately.
What kind of support can I expect for my CSV migration?
Cart2Cart offers various Data Migration Service Packages (Basic, Extended, Premium, Ultimate) that provide professional assistance. Depending on your chosen package, you can benefit from a dedicated personal manager and a team of technical engineers who handle the setup, configuration, and quality control of your data transfer, ensuring a qualitative and accurate migration.

This app performs greatly
This app performs greatly. The service is very reliable and the support is superb. The service is quite costly for me but in the end, it's worth its money. There is also an automated shopping cart migration and I'm very happy about that! I'm really satisfied.
