The number of steps depends on your migration approach.<\/p>\n

With the Automated Migration Tool<\/strong>, the process takes just 3 steps, all handled by you through a simple dashboard:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Set up your Source Cart and Target Cart<\/strong>: connect both stores via the LitExtension Connector or account credentials, depending on your platforms.<\/li>\n
  2. Select the data you want to migrate<\/strong>: Tick the entities to transfer, configure any additional options, then run a Free Demo Migration or proceed straight to checkout.<\/li>\n
  3. Perform the full migration<\/strong>: The process runs entirely behind the scenes while your Source Cart stays live and your business continues as usual.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    With the All-In-One Migration Service<\/strong>, our experts manage the process for you across 7 steps:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Technical consultation<\/strong>: Our team assesses your store’s structure, data, and any custom fields, then signs an SLA outlining the project scope.<\/li>\n
    2. Pre-migration customization<\/strong>: We set up the connection between both platforms and map your data structure to fit the Target Cart.<\/li>\n
    3. Demo migration<\/strong>: We transfer a small sample of data so you can preview the results before the full transfer.<\/li>\n
    4. Full migration<\/strong>: We securely migrate all your selected data while your Source Cart remains live and fully functional.<\/li>\n
    5. Migration results testing<\/strong>: Our team verifies the migrated data for accuracy and sends you a detailed outcome report.<\/li>\n
    6. Post-migration tasks<\/strong>: We keep your Target Cart in sync after the migration with free Recent Data migration, Re-migration, and Smart Update services, depending on your case.<\/li>\n
    7. Customer support<\/strong>: Our team is available for up to 60 days after the migration to help with any questions or adjustments.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you’re not sure which approach fits your store best, our Support Agents can help you decide during a free consultation.<\/p>\n
