Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:13 pm

Migrating your WooCommerce customers and orders to a new site can be a daunting task, but there are a few simple steps you can follow to make the process as smooth as possible.

First, you’ll need to export your WooCommerce data from your old site. To do this, log into your WordPress dashboard and go to WooCommerce > Settings > Export.

From here, you can select which data you’d like to export – customers, orders, products, etc. – and then choose whether you’d like to export it as a CSV or XML file.

PRO TIP: If you are considering migrating your WooCommerce customers and orders to a new site, there are a few things you should be aware of. First, it is important to understand that your customer data is stored in your WordPress database. This means that if you are moving your WooCommerce store to a new domain or host, you will need to export your customer and order data from your old WordPress database and import it into your new WordPress database. Second, if you are using a plugin or service to help with the migration, be sure to read the reviews and do your research to make sure it is a reputable tool. Finally, if you are manually migrating your data, be sure to backup your data before beginning the process.

Once you have your data exported, it’s time to import it into your new WooCommerce site. To do this, log into your WordPress dashboard and go to WooCommerce > Settings > Import.

From here, you can choose which data you’d like to import – customers, orders, products, etc. – and then select the file you exported from your old site.

That’s it! By following these simple steps, you can migrate your WooCommerce customers and orders to a new site with ease.
