Merit Vendors are contacts introduced in Issue 13's Merit Rewards system. They give recipes, enhancements, and other items in trade for Reward Merits. Merit Vendors are located in many different zones, and can be selected on the map as waypoints. Each Merit Vendor has a unique costume unlike factions such as the Freedom Corps that have similar costumes across the faction. However, they still possess the same color scheme, which is maroon and yellow/gold.
