Say goodbye to duplicate guests
June 26, 2026

Every retreat center accumulates duplicate guests — a name typed two ways, an online registration that didn’t match, a married name that never got linked.
Retreat Portal’s new Guest Merge tool finds those duplicates automatically, even when the names only sound alike (Smith/Smyth, Katie/Kathy), and shows you each likely match with a confidence score. Pick the record to keep, pull in the best email or address with a click, and merge — every reservation, invoice, payment, and message moves over with it.
Made a mistake? One-click undo puts everything back. Cleaner data, no spreadsheets, no risk.
- Automatic duplicate detection — scans your whole guest list and ranks the likely matches, including sound-alike names.
- Side-by-side compare — see both records field by field and copy the better value over with one click.
- Everything moves together — reservations, invoices, payments, and messages follow the record you keep.
- Fully reversible — every merge is logged and can be undone in one click.
