MergeGuard finds duplicate customers by name, email, phone and address and counts each person once. See real VIPs, win back lapsed customers and spot subscribers who may cancel. Fix email typos and sync clean lists to Klaviyo.
Order Merging groups orders by your conditions and merges them into one shipment. Choose one or more conditions: same customer, same shipping address, paid orders only, or order tags.
