How Do I Merge Multiple Facebook Pages?

Facebook has long been a way for individuals and businesses to keep in touch with those they hold dearest. There are also a variety of accounts that can be opened, personal accounts, pages, and groups. The only caveat is that you can't have two personal accounts, but there are a few ways to combine different accounts, depending on what kind they are.

Facebook's beginnings can be traced as early as 2004 when a group of Harvard roommates wanted to keep in touch. By 2006, anyone at least 13 years old with a valid email address could join. Facebook does have a community rule that no one can have more than one personal account, so there isn't a way to combine more than personal account at this time. You can either switch the important information to one account before closing the other or you can merge a personal account with a page or group that you do manage.

Downloading a Copy

  1. Go to the Available Files section of the Download Your Information tool.

Adding a Page or Group You Manage to Your Personal Account.

Please note, that you do need a personal account before you can create either a page or a group. Facebook will prompt you to either log in or create a personal account.

Pages or Groups You Create VS Those Created By Others

When you create your own page, Facebook automatically links it to your personal account, making it easier to toggle between the two accounts. For Pages or Groups created by others, they would have to add you as an administrator in order for you to access it from your personal page.

Merging Two Facebook Pages

This can only be done if you're the owner or administrator of both pages, they have similar names, and have the same address if it's a business with a physical location. But please note that items like the username, reviews, photos, and posts will be deleted from the page you merge. There isn't a way to unmerge pages.

  1. Go to facebook.com/pages/merge.
  2. Select the two pages you'd like to merge and click Continue.
  3. Then, click Request Merge.

If you have any questions, Facebook has a support page in place of a customer service phone number. The page is located at https://www.facebook.com/help and does have an inbox. However, there is no way to send a direct message to support. However, you will receive updates about things you have reported and other messages.
