Pre-Merge Considerations

Favorites Limit

Upon merging, if the total number of favorites exceeds the platform's maximum limit, users may retain more favorites than typically allowed. However, to add new favorites, users must remove existing ones to fit within the limit.

Purchase Restrictions

Users who have made purchases through the Creator Economy on any platform (Steam, Meta, Viveport, Pico) cannot merge their accounts into a full VRChat account. This restriction is temporary and expected to be lifted.

Merging Process

To merge a platform account into a full VRChat account, follow these steps:

  1. Log into the Steam, Meta, Pico, or Viveport account you wish to merge.
  2. Open the Main Menu in VRChat.
  3. Navigate to Settings.
  4. Locate and click the Upgrade Account button below the Exit option.
    • If the Upgrade Account button is not visible, you are already logged into a full VRChat account.
  5. Follow the on-screen instructions to link your account.

Post-Merge

Linking is permanent and irreversible. It can take up to one day for account data to fully merge. For any issues during or after the process, contact VRChat support at Official VRChat source VRChat Support.

Limitations

Each full VRChat account can be linked to one account from each supported platform simultaneously.
