Additional Options
Choose relevant Additional Migration Options to prepare your target BigCommerce store and improve the migration result.
When important source URLs can be identified and mapped reliably, create 301 redirects to their corresponding target-store destinations to reduce broken links and support SEO continuity.
BigCommerce does not allow the original BigCommerce Order ID to become its internal Order ID. With Preserve Order IDs selected, LitExtension stores the original BigCommerce Order ID in the BigCommerce External ID field.
Automatically remove unwanted HTML tags from supported product and category names during migration.
Remove existing data for selected supported entities on the target BigCommerce store before migration to reduce conflicts or duplicate records.
Transfer supported images embedded in product, category, and blog descriptions when the source content provides usable image references and the corresponding target content supports them.
Move data between BigCommerce stores with a guided migration process and a Free Demo before the Full Migration.

FAQs About BigCommerce to BigCommerce Migration
Not seeing your question listed here? Contact Us for the quickest answer.
What data can be migrated from BigCommerce to BigCommerce?
The standard migration scope includes Products and Product Categories, Customers, Orders, Manufacturers, Coupons, Reviews, and Blogs. The transferable fields are limited to the overlap between BigCommerce source export and target import capabilities.
Taxes, CMS Pages, and Multiple Languages are not included as standard transferable entities in the current scope.
Why would I migrate from one BigCommerce store to another?
BigCommerce-to-BigCommerce migration can be useful when you are rebuilding a store, replacing an existing storefront, changing store structure, separating a business unit, or starting with a clean target store while retaining supported business data.
Can customer passwords and payment card data be transferred?
No. Customer passwords are not included in the standard transferable fields for this route, and sensitive payment card credentials are not treated as standard migration data. Customers may need to set or reset login credentials on the target store.
Can BigCommerce product variants, attributes, and images be migrated?
Yes. The standard overlap includes Attributes, Variants, Thumbnail Image, and Additional Images, along with product names, SKUs, descriptions, prices, stock fields, metadata, dimensions, and product tags.
Source-only fields such as Product Tax Class and Created Date are not included when the target has no corresponding standard field.
Can CMS pages be migrated between BigCommerce stores?
CMS Pages are not included as a standard BigCommerce source export entity in the current migration capability for this route.
If you need to move page content separately, our Migration Customization Service can assess the available source data and mapping approach.
Will my source BigCommerce store stay online during migration?
Yes. The migration copies supported data to the target store without requiring the source BigCommerce store to be shut down.
If new supported records are created after the main transfer, Recent Data Migration can be used when applicable.
Can I keep the original Order IDs on the target BigCommerce store?
BigCommerce does not allow a source Order ID to become the target store’s internal BigCommerce Order ID. When the original identifier needs to be retained, it can be stored in the BigCommerce External ID field instead.
Because importing orders linked to products can affect product quantity on BigCommerce, inventory should be checked during post-migration validation.
How can I preserve SEO when migrating between BigCommerce stores?
Supported Product and Product Category Meta Title and Meta Description fields can be transferred. Blog URLs are also included in the standard overlap.
When URLs change between stores, create 301 redirects where reliable mappings are available and review redirects, metadata, canonical behavior, sitemaps, internal links, and crawl errors before launch.
Can I test BigCommerce to BigCommerce migration before the Full Migration?
Yes. A Free Demo Migration lets you review representative records before the Full Migration. Check products, variants, categories, customers, orders, coupons, reviews, blogs, images, and field mapping carefully before proceeding.
How long does BigCommerce to BigCommerce migration take and how much does it cost?
The migration time depends on product volume, variants, customers, order history, images, blogs, selected migration options, API conditions, and any custom requirements.
