Merge Facebook Messenger Contacts with Lead Ad Contacts in GoHighLevel

When someone fills out a Facebook lead ad form and then sends a Messenger message, GoHighLevel creates two separate contact records because Messenger only provides a name, not an email or phone number. Turning on the Merge Facebook Contacts by Name setting in Company Settings stops this duplication by matching the incoming Messenger name to the existing contact record automatically.

概要. GoHighLevel's Merge Facebook Contacts by Name option solves a common duplicate contact problem for agencies running Facebook lead ads with a Messenger follow-up step. Without it, the same person appears twice: once from the lead form and once from the Messenger message. Enabling the setting in Company Settings makes GoHighLevel match on name so the Messenger conversation attaches to the existing contact rather than creating a new one.

  • Find and enable the Merge Facebook Contacts by Name setting
  • Keep a single contact record when using lead ads and Messenger together

ステップ

  1. Go to Settings in your sub-account

    Open the sub-account where you are running Facebook lead ads. Navigate to Settings in the left sidebar.

  2. Open the Company tab

    Inside Settings, click the Company tab (sometimes labeled Company Settings or General). Scroll down until you see the option labeled Merge Facebook Contacts by Name.

  3. Enable the setting and save

    Check the box to enable Merge Facebook Contacts by Name. Save the settings. From this point forward, incoming Messenger contacts will be matched to existing records by name rather than creating duplicates.

よくある質問

Why does a Messenger reply create a duplicate instead of updating the existing contact?

Messenger only sends a name, so GoHighLevel cannot match on email or phone automatically.

Is there any risk of incorrect merges if two leads share the same name?

Yes, name-based matching is not perfect. Review merged contacts if you have a high volume of common names.

Does this setting apply to all sub-accounts or just one?

It is set per sub-account in that account's Company Settings, not at the agency level.
