Merge Existing Customers
This functionality allows existing customers with the same email address or phone number to be merged into one customer.
A new order will be automatically associated to an existing customer during order processing if the order’s emailAddress or phoneNumber value matches to that of an existing customer, AND the firstName or lastName value also matches.
The new order will always create a new, separate customer if the disableCustomerDedup parameter is sent with the value “1” on the Import Lead or Import Order API call.
