How the Auto-Migrator Works

The WHASOLS Data Migrator tool imports all your data from WHMCS (or another WHASOLS installation) directly into your new WHASOLS system. Here's how it works, step by step.

Read Full Docs →
1
Enter your source database credentials
In your WHASOLS admin panel, navigate to the Data Migrator tool. Select whether you're migrating from WHMCS or another WHASOLS installation, then enter the database host, name, username, and password of your source system.
Tip: You'll find your WHMCS database credentials in your WHMCS configuration.php file.
2
Run checks and requirements validation
WHASOLS will verify the connection to your source database and check that all requirements are met before starting the migration. Any issues will be flagged with clear instructions on how to resolve them.
3
Click Next to start the import
Once the validation passes, click the Next button to begin the data import. WHASOLS will transfer your clients, invoices, services, domains, and tickets automatically. The process runs in the background — no need to stay on the page.
Note: Migration time depends on the amount of data. Most installs with under 500 clients complete in 10–30 minutes.
4
Verify your data
After the migration completes, log in as a few test clients and verify their services, invoices, and domains look correct. Check that next due dates are accurate.
5
Configure your payment gateways & control panels
Re-enter your payment gateway API keys and control panel credentials in WHASOLS settings. These are not transferred for security reasons — you'll need your PayPal, Stripe, cPanel, etc. credentials handy.
6
Go live — you're done! 🎉
Update your domain's DNS to point to WHASOLS, or switch your client area URL. Your clients log in as normal — they won't notice a thing. You can cancel WHMCS whenever you're ready.
Remember: You have a 30-day money-back guarantee, so there's zero risk in trying.

🌐
Adding Domains Manually
  1. Open the client profile → Add New Order
  2. Click Register Domain, enter domain name
  3. Set status to Active, deselect invoice generation

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to many of the most common pre-sales questions

No. You can run the migration while your WHMCS is still live. Once migration is complete and you've verified everything, simply switch your client area URL to point to WHASOLS. Your clients won't notice any interruption.

The auto-migrator has a simple step-by-step wizard. You'll need your WHMCS database credentials (found in your WHMCS configuration.php file) but no coding or server knowledge is required. If you're unsure, our $99 done-for-you service covers everything.

For security, payment gateway API keys are not transferred. You'll need to re-enter your PayPal, Stripe, or other gateway credentials in WHASOLS settings. WHASOLS supports all major gateways including PayPal, Stripe, Skrill, 2Checkout, Authorize.net, and 100+ more.

Yes. The migration is non-destructive — your WHMCS data is only read, never modified. You can run both systems simultaneously during the transition period and switch over when you're confident everything is working correctly.

Most migrations complete in under an hour. For very large installs (thousands of clients), it may take longer. The migration runs in the background so you don't need to stay on the page while it completes.

Since we recommend backing up your WHMCS database before starting, you can always restore if needed. Our support team is available 24/7 via ticket (and live chat for Pro/Business plan holders) to help with any migration issues. The $99 professional service also includes full migration support with a guarantee.
