Create 301 Redirects to Your PrestaShop Store
Automatically maps your Big Cartel URLs to their matching pages on PrestaShop, helping reduce broken links after the move.
How It Works
Strip HTML Tags from Category & Product Names
Automatically cleans out any leftover HTML markup in your Big Cartel category or product titles before it reaches your PrestaShop store, so names display cleanly.
How It Works
Clear Data on Your PrestaShop Store Before Migration
Wipes out sample or placeholder data already sitting in your PrestaShop store for the entities you’re migrating, so nothing from Big Cartel collides or duplicates with what’s already there.
Migrate Images in Product Descriptions
Brings over images tucked inside your Big Cartel product descriptions, not just the standalone gallery images, so your PrestaShop content closely matches your original store.

Popular Questions About Big Cartel to PrestaShop Migration

Need help with your transfer? Contact Us for expert support and quick assistance.
Can I migrate product variants from Big Cartel to PrestaShop?

Yes. LitExtension migrates your Big Cartel product variants and options to PrestaShop’s combination structure, keeping your catalog complexity intact.

Can I migrate reviews from Big Cartel to PrestaShop?

No. Big Cartel doesn’t provide an export option for product reviews, so review ratings and feedback aren’t part of this migration.

Why aren’t my products displaying correctly after migrating from Big Cartel?

Check whether combined products have the EAN13 field and whether the PrestaShop Route to Products configuration includes {-:ean13}. Deleting that field fixes the display.

Why can’t I find products under the categories menu in PrestaShop admin?

PrestaShop settings don’t let you view category-assigned products from the category menu directly. Use the Products menu and the Filter by category option instead.

Why can’t my customer and order data be migrated from Big Cartel?

Big Cartel simply doesn’t offer native export tools for customer records or order history, unlike most eCommerce platforms, it only exposes product data through its API. This migration covers your full product catalog and categories; customer and order data would need to be re-entered manually or reconstructed from your own records.

Will my Big Cartel store’s design transfer to PrestaShop?

No. Store design and theme are platform-specific and don’t carry over, this migration moves your product data, not your storefront’s visual layout. You’ll select a new PrestaShop theme separately after the transfer.

Will my Big Cartel store stay online during migration?

Yes. LitExtension connects and transfers your Big Cartel product data to build it out on PrestaShop separately, so your live store keeps running normally the entire time.

How much does it cost to migrate from Big Cartel to PrestaShop?

Since Big Cartel only exports product-level data, pricing is based primarily on your total product and category count rather than customers or orders. Use the Pricing Estimator on this page for a rough figure, or contact our team for an exact quote.
