Switch to Cicini

Move from Vagaro to Cicini

Export your Vagaro customer list and bring clients into Cicini.

Who this is for

Salons, spas and studios moving from Vagaro.

What moves, and what does not

What moves

  • Clients. An email is optional: a name, an email or a phone number is enough.

Vagaro does not give you a file for team members, services or appointments. To bring those over, prepare a CSV yourself in our spreadsheet format.

What does not move

  • Appointment history and packages. Ask Cicini support about an assisted import if you need history.
  • Saved cards. Card details cannot be exported from one payment processor and loaded into another by us. Clients add a card again on their first booking.
  • Packages, memberships and gift card balances. Cicini does not import them.
  • Reviews, loyalty points and product stock.
  • Anything stored as a PDF, photo or attachment.

Step 2: import into Cicini

  1. Open Import & Export in your Cicini dashboard and choose your current provider.
  2. Upload the file you exported. Cicini reads CSV files; if your provider gives you Excel, open it and save it as CSV first.
  3. Check the column mapping. The provider preset fills it in, and you can change any column.
  4. Review duplicates. For each match choose merge, skip or create new, or apply one choice to all.
  5. Preview and validate. Fix or skip any row with a problem; a CSV of the problem rows is available.
  6. Confirm. Nothing is sent to your clients: an import sends no emails, texts or reminders. You can undo the whole import for 30 days.

Silent, reversible and free to try

Silent import
An import is silent. Cicini sends no email or text to any imported client, and reminders for imported appointments stay off until you turn them on.
30-day undo
You can undo a whole import for 30 days. Records the import created are removed, merged records are put back, and anything you have used since is kept and listed.

Assisted import is free during launch. If you would rather not do it yourself, ask our team. Contact support.
