How to Merge Two Facebook Pages (Keep Your Followers)

To merge two Facebook Pages: switch into the Page you want to keep, open Settings & privacy > Settings > Page setup, click View next to Merge Pages, then Start request. Followers and check-ins from both Pages combine. The other Page’s posts, photos, reviews, and username are deleted — and you cannot unmerge.

Before you merge: the requirements

Facebook only approves a merge when both Pages meet all of these:

You’re an admin of both Pages (full Facebook access, not task-level access given through Business Manager).
The Pages have the same or similar names and represent the same business, brand, or person.
They have the same address, if they have physical locations.
Both Pages are published. Unpublish neither before the merge.
If the Pages are owned through Business Manager, both must sit in the same Business Manager account.

Pick your survivor first. The Page you keep holds its posts, photos, reviews, username, and URL. Everything on the other Page except its followers and check-ins is deleted.

Method 1: Merge from Page settings

This is the current path in the new Pages experience:

Click your profile picture (top right), then See all profiles, and switch into the Page you want to keep.
Click the Page’s profile picture (top right), then Settings & privacy > Settings.
In the left menu, click Page setup.
Next to Merge Pages, click View.
Next to Merge multiple Pages, click Start request, then choose the Page to keep and the Page to merge into it.

Method 2: The merge tool

The direct tool still works and does the same thing:

Go to facebook.com/pages/merge while logged in to an account that admins both Pages.
Select the two Pages and click Continue.
Choose which Page to keep, then click Request Merge.

Pages owned by a Business Manager account merge at business.facebook.com/pages/merge instead.

What happens after the merge

Kept (moves to the surviving Page):

Followers and likes — duplicates count once, so the total can be less than the sum of both Pages.
Check-ins from both locations.
Facebook Groups linked to the merged Page.

Deleted (from the Page you merge away):

Posts, photos, and videos.
Reviews and ratings.
The Page’s username and URL.
The Page itself — it’s removed from Facebook, and there is no unmerge.

If you run ads, check that no active campaign targets the Page you’re deleting before you submit the request.

Save the losing Page’s content first

Since posts, photos, and reviews on the merged Page are wiped, download a copy before merging:

Switch into the Page you plan to merge away.
Go to Settings & privacy > Settings > Download profile information.
Request a copy of posts, photos, and videos, then download the file when Facebook emails you.

Screenshot your best reviews too — review content cannot be transferred, but you can quote them later as testimonials.

Merge option missing or request denied?

Work down this list — one of these is almost always the cause:

Names too different. Rename the losing Page to match the survivor, wait about a week for the change to settle, then request the merge again.
Different addresses. Edit both Pages so the address, phone, and website match exactly, or remove the location from the losing Page.
You’re not an admin of both. Ask the other admin to grant you full control, or have them start the merge.
Task-level access only. Access given through Business Manager as task access isn’t enough — you need full Facebook access on both Pages.
One Page is unpublished. Publish it, then retry.
Different Business Manager accounts. Move both Pages into the same Business Manager first.

Pages that can’t be merged

Global Pages.
A verified Page into a Page that isn’t verified. Merge the unverified one into the verified one instead.
A classic Page with a Page in the new Pages experience.

Why merge instead of deleting the extra Page?

Deleting a duplicate Page throws its followers away. Merging moves them to your main Page, so the audience you built on both survives. One Page also means one place to answer messages, one set of reviews to grow, and no confusion about which Page is official — useful when a duplicate “place” Page appeared for your business or an old Page still outranks your real one in search.
