Can I switch MLM platforms without losing distributor data?

Yes, but the migration needs structure. Every real vendor will export your data (sponsorship tree, sales, commissions, member profiles) to CSV or JSON on contract termination. The cleaner vendors do this within 30 days at no cost; the worst lock data behind 90-day timelines and fees. Plan a four-week migration with a parallel-run week before cutover, and don't disable distributor logins on the old platform until the new one has processed at least one full payout cycle. The migration playbook on the buying guides page has the detailed sequence.
