How to Migrate Your Business from Kartra to systeme.io
Introduction
Kartra bundles funnels, email, memberships, checkout, and automations—but pricing and complexity push many creators toward a leaner all-in-one. systeme.io offers a complete, free business migration from Kartra on eligible plans (see How to migrate your business from Kartra to systeme.io).
Note: migration is manually performed by the systeme.io team—not a one-click Kartra export.
Why Move from Kartra to systeme.io?
- Lower cost with Free through Unlimited tiers and 0% platform transaction fees on paid plans (pricing)
- Unlimited email sends on all plans (contact storage limits apply)
- Affiliate program on every plan, including Free
- Free done-for-you migration on Unlimited monthly or any annual plan
Stay on Kartra if you depend on Kartra-specific video hosting, helpdesk, or deep calendar stacks. Move to systeme.io when funnels, courses, email, and checkout are your core—and you want simpler ops at lower cost.

What the Team Migrates
1. Sales funnel pages
Funnels are migrated first so offers can go live quickly. Pages are rebuilt in the systeme.io editor from your Kartra funnels and landing flows.
2. Blog pages and posts
If you use Kartra pages as a blog or content hub, equivalent structure can be recreated on systeme.io’s Blog ( When to use the sales funnel feature and the blog feature).
3. Courses
Courses are imported individually with modules and lessons. Video is typically embedded from YouTube, Vimeo, or Wistia on systeme.io (not native Kartra-style hosting).
4. Physical products
Physical products are recreated with name, description, SKUs, tax, currency, price, and images. See How to create and sell a physical product with systeme.io.
5. Newsletters and campaigns
Kartra email campaigns and broadcasts are rebuilt in systeme.io with matching structure and content where possible.
6. Contact lists and tags
Kartra lets you export contacts to CSV in seconds. The team imports lists and tags into systeme.io CRM. For large lists, review Migration of your contact list to systeme.io: what you need to know before getting started and authenticate your domain before big sends ( How to authenticate your domain name for email sending).
7. Automations
Kartra automations are recreated under Automations as rules and workflows, adapted so results match your original logic on each platform.
8. Domain integration and authentication
After content migration, connect and authenticate your custom domain on systeme.io so funnels and email send from your brand domain.
