HI 👋 no, there is no prebuilt deduplication functionality to avoid creating multiple Customer objects based on email address, that would be functionality that you would need to custom build for your flow.

hi toby,
Thanks for your quick reply and time 🙌

Ok.
Yea but its not possible if I dont want to ask the user before to login/add his email, which is in our case bad for conversion, since 80% are new users...

Is there any near time plan to at least have a merge feature?
Then I could search and merge customers after a purchase...

No, I am not aware of a feature like this being worked on.

#

I understand the desire behind this, but it also sounds like with this approach you're proposing mingling data created by an authenticated customer with data created by an unauthenticated user, which at least initially sounds less than ideal.

ok.
At least a way to manual merge them would be great.

I'll be sure to capture that feedback for our teams.
