A good migration keeps the same trading conditions where possible, so clients only notice better service. **Key takeaways** - Check notice periods and data ownership in your current contract first. - Export clients, accounts, balances, history, KYC documents and IB structures. - Run the new system in parallel and test before switching. - Migrate in a planned window and keep the old data read-only. - Communicate early and clearly with clients and IBs. **Looking for forex CRM migration?** Data import, group mapping and parallel testing when you move to our CRM. [Explore our forex CRM](https://www.brokerwhitelabelsolution.com/crm) Brokers switch providers for many reasons: poor support, outages, missing features, high costs or a move to their own MT5 licence. A badly planned migration can lose clients and data. A well-planned one is almost invisible to traders. ## When switching makes sense - Repeated downtime or slow support. - Missing features: payments, IB tools, prop modules or apps. - Costs that no longer match your volume. - Moving from a white label to your own MT5 licence. - Adding more platforms on one CRM; see [multi-platform](https://www.brokerwhitelabelsolution.com/multi-platform). ## Before you start: check your contract Look at notice periods, exit fees, data ownership and export rights, and how long the old provider will keep your server running. If data rights are unclear, agree them in writing before giving notice. For future contracts, see [technology due diligence](https://www.brokerwhitelabelsolution.com/blog-broker-technology-due-diligence-licence-applications). ## Data to export | Data | Why | | --- | --- | | Client profiles and KYC documents | Avoid asking clients to verify again | | Trading accounts, groups and balances | Recreate accounts with correct balances | | Trade and transaction history | Statements, disputes and regulatory records | | IB structures and commission history | Keep partners paid correctly | | Payment records | Reconciliation and refunds | | Symbols, spreads and group settings | Keep trading conditions the same | ## Step-by-step migration 1. **Plan.** Scope, timeline, owners and a rollback plan. 2. **Set up the new stack.** Platform, liquidity, CRM, payments and KYC. 3. **Map settings.** Groups, symbols, leverage, commissions and IB plans. 4. **Test.** Import sample data and test deposits, withdrawals, trading and reports. 5. **Tell clients and IBs.** Explain what changes, new login details and the date. 6. **Migrate.** Close or transfer positions as agreed, move balances and accounts in a planned window, usually at the weekend. 7. **Run in parallel.** Keep the old system read-only for history and reconcile balances. 8. **Review.** Check every balance and commission after go-live. ## Client communication tips - Give notice in advance, by email and in the client portal. - Explain open positions: will they be closed or transferred? - Share new platform download links and login steps. - Offer extra support during the first week. ## How we help We migrate brokers from other white label and CRM providers to our [MT5 white label](https://www.brokerwhitelabelsolution.com/mt5-white-label) and [forex CRM](https://www.brokerwhitelabelsolution.com/crm), including data import, group mapping and parallel testing.
