Export your Rejoiner data.

Run these in Rejoiner before you change anything there. Keep the files somewhere safe until Bento is sending.

  1. 1

    Export your lists from Rejoiner

    Sign in to Rejoiner, open each list, select Export List, choose the fields you need, and create the CSV. Rejoiner emails a download notification and keeps the latest export on the list for 24 hours.

    TipDownload each file promptly and record the fields selected for the export.

  2. 2

    Export key segments and lifecycle lists

    For important segments such as VIPs, high spenders, or product-specific lists, export each group as its own CSV so you can recreate them in Bento with tags and segments.

    TipName each exported file clearly to match how you want segments to look in Bento.

  3. 3

    Export unsubscribe data

    Open Rejoiner's global unsubscribe list and export it as CSV. Ask Rejoiner support how to obtain any separate hard-bounce and spam-complaint suppression records needed for the move.

    TipKeep unsubscribe and suppression data separate from marketable contacts during import.

  4. 4

    Capture templates and automation logic

    Open your high-value Rejoiner campaigns and lifecycle flows, save email HTML or text, and document triggers, delays, and branching so you can rebuild them in Bento.

    TipTake screenshots of flow diagrams and timing settings for reference when recreating automations.

  5. 5

    Connect Bento to your ecommerce platform

    In Bento, install the Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom ecommerce integration, or add the tracking script so new orders and events start flowing into Bento.

    TipConnect Bento before you turn off any Rejoiner flows so you can compare events and revenue tracking.

  6. 6

    Import subscribers and suppression lists into Bento

    Use Bento's CSV import tools to upload your subscriber file, map custom fields, apply tags for segments, and import your suppression list into the do-not-email table.

    TipStart with a small test segment, validate mapping and templates, then roll out to your full list.

Before you cancel Rejoiner

  • Ask Rejoiner support for a complete export of subscribers and suppression lists if you cannot self-serve from the UI.
  • Rebuild your highest revenue flows first in Bento, such as cart recovery, post-purchase, and win-back sequences.
  • Keep Rejoiner running in parallel until Bento broadcasts and automations are fully tested.
  • Use Bento's free email validation during import to clean your list and improve deliverability from day one.
  • Use batched sending in Bento when you first mail your full list, especially if you change domains or DNS.
  • Automations and lifecycle flows do not migrate automatically from Rejoiner; you need to rebuild them in Bento.
  • Detailed historical email performance data will remain in Rejoiner, so export reports or screenshots before closing your account.
  • Failing to import your suppression list can cause you to email unsubscribed contacts, which can hurt deliverability and compliance.

Bento teamReplied

Thanks. Start with suppressions, then your list, then the flows that make money. We can review your domain setup before you send.

Teams switch for deliverability and stay for the support.

“Moving to Bento was the best thing I ever did for my list and its profitability”
Iliane L.G2
“I love how easy it is to use to design SaaS emailing sequences. You can also see rapidly which campaigns are the money makers. But what I love the most is undoubtedly the deliverability that you have once you've set up custom domain tracking”

“The support and community within Bento is hands down the best I've ever seen from any company, ever.”

Questions about leaving Rejoiner.

How long does it take to migrate from Rejoiner to Bento?
Timing depends on list size, integrations, templates, and the number of journeys you need to rebuild. Export and verify contacts first, then move revenue-critical journeys in tested batches.
Will I lose my historical email data when I switch from Rejoiner?
Your historical reporting will stay inside Rejoiner and cannot be imported into Bento, so we recommend exporting key reports and keeping them for reference while you start fresh in Bento.
What happens to my abandoned cart and lifecycle flows?
You will recreate these as sequences and automations in Bento, using your exported templates and notes for timing, and you can take advantage of anonymous tracking and batched sending at the same time.
Can I run Rejoiner and Bento side by side during migration?
Yes, many stores run both tools in parallel for a short period; just make sure only one platform is sending each specific flow so customers do not receive duplicate emails.
Will there be downtime?
No. Keep Rejoiner running while you import, test, authenticate your sending domain, and warm up. Once Bento is ready, move your sending and phase out Rejoiner.
Can the Bento team help if I get stuck?
Yes. The team can review your current setup, help you decide what to move first, and advise on deliverability, data mapping, and launch order.
