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…

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,
we already offer the online check-out to guests who are in hurry and who want to skip the queue at the reception.Guests can do the online check-out from their phone, tablet, or laptop. 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.
https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4245851-what-is-online-check-outTry it out! Guests love it!
Check-out is also coming to the Operator, soon, so stay tuned! :-)Have a great day,

Be in CCI or CC of confirmation email
Be in CCI or CC of confirmation email
3 votesHi Mewsers!
Thank you for your input. Can you please elaborate a bit more on what are you trying to solve with this feature suggestion?If you need to monitor which emails we sent to your guests from Mews, you can see it in Queue > Mails.
The reason why we don’t allow properties to access the content of emails is that emails contain unique links to the Guests Navigator where guest manages his or her reservation/profile/payment cards/ etc.
I am looking forward to hear about your needs and then we can brainstorm about a possible solution.
Have a great day,

QR Code scanner
Customers already receive confirmation and online c-in emails.
There is a ID scanner in place, however it takes time for guests to put their name and booking ref number.
It will be very helpful if a guest can just present a QR code for their booking and the kiosk finds their booking and starts the c-in process.
This will also limit the errors when mistyping name/booking number and limit the customer "touch" interaction with the device for the current Covid environment.3 votesHello,
please, let me inform you that the QR code scanner is already available in our kiosk. It is on the Find your reservation screen – see the attached screenshot.
Best regards,

Add neutral gender in online check-in
Is there a possibility to modify the online check in somehow? We got a feedback from one guest that it would be nice to have a possibility to choose gender neutral as a sex and not only male and female. Or can we get the sex question off somehow? Thanks for the help!

Navigator translations intereference with Google translations
The Navigator Website has several different languages available. However, every guest that does not speak English will get the google translate notification. If a guest enables this option, any language will get translated to the selected language. For example: German to German, which results in an unreadable text.
This is highly recommended especially for German houses. In some text it even says "you die".

Change message is shows after Self Check in
It would be great if it would be possible to change the check in message manually:
After self check in the text shows:
„Don´t forget, your keys are on the reception“…
During Corona times many guest do not get their ke
ys at the reception. Thats why the hotel needs to change this message.4 votesHi Mewsers,

Preview of mail templates
Mail templates are currently editable and customizable using HTML within Commander. Although this allows for quite a lot of customization options, it is restricted to those who are more familiar with using HTML. Introducing a preview button or test email functionality could help properties greatly, as they could then see exactly what the final product will look like while they finalize their email formatting.
It's also important for being able to track the correspondence which was sent out to guests.

Issuing country a mandatory field in South Africa
When updating the profile information in the Navigator. The guest is required to add their passport or ID. If they select ID, and do not choose the issuing country. Mews requests that they input the expiration date. In South Africa, the ID does not have an expiration date. Can we make the issuing country a mandatory field, so that the guest cannot miss this field?
7 votesHi Mewsers!
Good news! From now on, we are requiring the issuing country for documents in South Africa. If the issuing country is Soth Africa, the expiration date is not required.Have a great day,

Option: Do not send charge mail to the client
Mews sends automatically a charge mail to the mail address in the customer profile (for a physical card). But the card holder may be different e.g. a travel agency) and the customer is not supposed to knox the net price. Therefor it would be helpful to have a tick box on the charge screen: "Do not send charge mail to the client".
