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.

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…

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…

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.

this is part of Online Check out functionality which we alrleady provide.

Send Before start email for all new reservations not only 48 hours in advance
If you have the before start template set-up, this is triggered to be send 48h prior to arrival. However, if guests make a reservation 24h in advance, this template will not be send. It would be better if this template is send to all new reservation made within the 48h window as well. Because it is not logical that only guests who booked earlier in advance receive necessary information for their stay.

Bill Preview to (Property) Email
On the body of the email the guest receives, it would be good to change the signature line in the email. We would like to change “The Mews Team” to “AutoCamp Russian River”. Our guests don't know who "The Mews Team" is and it should default to the property name.
2 votesHi Robert,
thanks for your input. That makes sense! We put the property name to the signature. It should appear in production in the upcoming days.Have a great day,

Optional to fill out "Identity document"
It is not mandatory for many countries to have guests fill out "Identity documents". This is also the case for our hotel in Norway.
Plus we want to make it as easy and fast as possible for our guests to complete the online check-in.
Would therefore appreciate if it could be optional to fill out "Identity document" in the online check-in.
5 votesHi Mewsers!
Good news!
In Norwegian properties, Nordic nationals are no longer required to fill in Identity documents.We keep this required for the rest of the guests to comply with the Norwegian Immigration Regulations – https://www.regjeringen.no/globalassets/upload/jd/dokumenter/forskrifter/immigration-regulations.pdf.

Let the booker fill in the data of all companions
For properties with AutoCheck-in we need the booker to be able to fill in the data of all guests as some of them (old people and children) don't have email address to complete the compulsory data of the registration cards.

check-out VCC
Regarding the contactless check-out: please make sure the guest do NOT have to pay for himself when booking va OTAs whenever the VCC details are not available / payment not taken as it does not make sense and create complains
3 votesHi Mewsers!
Thank you for your input. We have updated the online check-out flow for guests with remaining balance on VCC.Guests with remaining balance on virtual credit card AND items to be paid upon check-out won’t be able to pay during the online check-out and they will be send to reception.
They will still be able to review their bill in advance and add minibar items (if you have minibar) but they won’t be able to pay with their card, neither with VCC. Guests who has nothing to pay during online check-out can finish the online check-out even though their VCC is not fully charged.
We are closely monitoring the occurrence of cases who cannot proceed via flow. So far it’s very low (2 out of 500 people). In case the occurrence will increase we will come up with more comprehensive solution.
At the moment I suggest…

QR code to be visible in the Before Start e-mail.

Online check-out for guests who are in a hurry
Hey, I was thinking it would be cool if there is an online check-out option for guests who are in a hurry- just in case the queue is longer at some times- they could check themselves out via the plattform with which they booked and put in the keycard in a machine (like a ticket machine). To avoid people leaving without paying open bills, the machine could decline the keycard with a loud noise and inform us at the reception. I know that this might seem too good to be true and not manageable but I have actually been to…
1 voteHi Mewsers,

In case there are some unpaid bills they are required to pay for them, they can add their billing details or claim items from minibar if your property have any.
