With Merge 100% Matched Customers turned on, customer profiles with a 100% match will be merged within two hours. You can still freely navigate to other screens within Vagaro.
From the Merge List, you can see all the potential customers eligible to be merged and their Match Scores.
A blue lock icon indicates that the customer changed their Vagaro username and password and cannot be merged. Send a request to support@vagaro.com to complete this process for locked customers.
An employee or owner of a Vagaro business with a matching customer profile will not display in the merge list.
Here's what each match percent means:
-
A 100 percent match score means that both customers share the same phone number and first and last name.
-
An 80 percent match means that both customers have the same first and last name but do not share the same phone number.
-
A 75 percent match means that both clients have the same phone number and first name but do not have the same last name.
-
A 40 percent match means that the customers have the same phone number and last name but do not have the same first name.
The list is first sorted by the Percent Match and alphabetically. Matching items are displayed in bold.

I have customers with multiple "locked" profiles. Some of my clients aren't tech savvy enough to correct this on their own. Do I really have to call customer support to merge them?
Hi Jessi... You don't have to CALL customer support, but you at least have to email the particulars about the locked customers to support@vagaro.com. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Will I lose customer notes by merging customers?
Hi Sonja,
You will not lose notes when merging customers. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Jamie
How d i undo a merge. I lost all the client info
Hi, Adriane. I am sorry about the difficulty you are experiencing. Merged customer profiles cannot be undone, but you can re-create the customer's profile using their same email address. A support ticket has been created for you, and someone will contact you soon.
I would also like to warn other uses that the card on file info will be lost- even after the preview of the merge says otherwise
Hi Sam,
When merging customer profiles, a card on file will be lost when merging that information from one profile to another. However, the card information will not be lost if you merge a profile to the profile with the card on file.
This prevents credit card information from being saved to another customer's profile.
If you have any further questions, please contact Vagaro Support; they'd be happy to troubleshoot with you.
Thanks,
Jamie
