Mandatory fields to be filled out at online check in, due to legal requirements municipal.
To have the possibility to make fields in the online check in Mandatory, as those are based on the legal requirement for our legal environment.
A lot of municipals in the Netherlands are obligating the hotels to keep more records of the guests. Like document number and the fellow travelers.
Now we have to manuelly fill this in when customer is at the reception. However, we can try to shortner this process, when we can make these fields mandotory to be filled in by the online check in. Save us, and the customer lots of time.12 votesHello from the Mews product team. We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request has been released.

Make the calendar easier for guests
The calendar in the kiosk for the expiration date, birthdate, etc. is very illogical. It would be better if guests are able to write the date themselves, or make it a 3-part process (think apple) with the year date, and month separate.
The process to click the year first (tiny module top right) and then find the month and then the date is very confusing and unintuitive.6 votesHello from the Mews product team. We are so pleased to let you know that your feature request has been released. Users are now able to type dates into relevant fields on the Kiosk. Thank you again for sharing your idea!

Check Out Kiosk
For Hotels/Hostels without reception it is necessary that the guest can check out at the kiosk - and pay the bill right there. The kiosk has an integrated Mews terminal, so the look and feel is exactly as it is at the online check out - just with the payment at the kiosk.

When completing their check-out, guests with outstanding balances can now pay their bills directly via a Mews terminal connected to the Kiosk. Thank you again for sharing your idea!

Online check-out emails to be sent at customised time
Online check-out emails are currently sent at 5pm day before arrival. For properties with high focus on a relaxed luxury experience this has caused negative guest reactions. Ex a guests checks-in at 4.30pm, for a 1 night getaway and on their way to the spa 30min later they get a an email prompting online check-out. Whilst it may seem efficient it might not be a relaxing guest experience. In addition, properties with a high capture rate for dinner would not want to push their guest to take actions before dinner charges has been added to the bill. The ability to…

self check in
Hi - Self Check in has a maximum amount of times that it is possible to use ?! As it seems. Quote 100 has been reached for a regular guest of ours and he can not use the service anymore. The service self check in not usable anymore for that particular guest staying as often as he does. Is this correct ?

Enable Kiosk to scan IDs + Driver's Licenses in US + Canada
99% of guests in the US and Canada do not travel with their passport. Therefore Mews ID scanner doesn't work in this region. Properties are looking for ways to automate their check-in and checking ID/Driver's License is absolutely crucial.
Scanning IDs and DLs is a needed feature in North America.
Properties should also be able to make this a mandatory step if a guest wants to check in on a kiosk.

Loyalty Programs - Add A Dedicated Section in Profile For Loyalty Program/s, Membership Levels, Colour-Coded Button & Hoverable Benefits
Under Internals there is currently only one Classification to select and that is 'Loyalty program'.
This is too generic, and doesn't indicate which program the member belongs to (Accor has three distinct loyalty programs) as well as which membership tier or level the guest is currently at (are they entry-level or a mega VIP platinum or diamond member)?
I would like to recommend that on the Profile screen that Files and Merge be moved down and a dedicated section for Loyalty be added, that can be fully customisable to the hotel's needs. This way we can have all programs and…

Make QR code of ANDROID phones also readable the Mews Kiosk
As it seems, the QR code is only readable from Ipones (IOS) and not readable on Androids at the moment. Since Android still has a huge marketshare, this would be a big improvement for guests and hosts.

We have marked this request as ‘released’ as the Mews Kiosk can read QR codes from Android devices.

ID Scanning in Mews + Kiosk-App
The software in Mews that reads ID data works much better than the one that does the same work in the kiosk app. In the kiosk app you have to enter some of the data manually, which is not necessary when scanning ID in Mews. The only problem with scanning the ID in Mews is that the system cannot find the camera it needs right away.

Possibility to customize time to send Online checkout email
Online check-out rules to be changed to allow higher adoption rates:
- Allow hotels to set time for 'online check-out invitation' email
Currently online check-out is sent at 17h00 on the day before check-out. Guests arriving after 17h00 (majority in many corporate destinations) and only staying 1 night don't receive the email invite due to this fixed time
- Allow guest profiles with "company" attached to their profile to check-out online. Currently not possible according to your team due to strict taxation rules? I don't see why this should be a problem. And it's specifically "corporate guests" who want to avoid lines…

customer added email selection
Currently customer added email can be disabled only in GA, for all guest. If a property is using a third party integration for guest journey (for certain guests), it would create duplicate emails and guest will receive too many mails.
Would it be feasible to decide for each reservation if customer added email should be sent?3 votesThe customer added email is no longer sent to Guests

Payment link
It would be very helpful if there would be a feature where the guests get a reminder on the day of their departure or the evening before with all extras or other services that still have to be paid. Then a button could be created on which the guests click and enter their payment information and thus pay all outstanding amounts and this would then have to be imported directly into the PMS via a two-way interface.
1 voteHello,
this is part of Online Check out functionality which we alrleady provide.
Regards,
Mews team
