  1. A useful improvement in MEWS would be a batch printing function for invoices. Instead of opening and printing each invoice individually, users could select a specific time period and print all invoices at once. This would save time and simplify the billing process, especially for high volumes.

  2. I would like to request an enhancement to the Finance - Bills and Invoices report. It would be helpful to include a section that displays both the amount of a bill and the total amount of all open bills. This additional information will aid in better tracking and management of our finances.

  3. When a payment link has expired, we would like to have the availability to resend the payment link or extend the deadline without having to remake the entire link. This would make it easier when a guest forgets to pay by the expiry date.

    If we could extend the deadline, it would be ideal if the guest would receive an update of this as well.

  4. Add QR Code as an External Payment Type. Many customers use QR code based digital wallets such as Wechat pay, Paypay and others.

  6. When we now set up automatic charges through Mews, we either have to select all products or nothing.
    Unfortunately, for a lot of reservations B&B is to be charged on a credit card, while tourist tax is to be paid on the spot.
    Separating city tax and breakfast would make this easier.

  7. Improvement flow request:

    Current payment automation is still being triggered at the customer profile and does not make any distinction if there is a routing rule in place or if the bill will be owned by a different customer or company.

    This can cause the wrong profile to be charged or the wrong amount due to be displayed (kiosk) because payment will sit in the Unpaid Items/Deposits section first.

  8. We would like to be able to change the price of a room even after the day has passed. It would be really useful because sometimes we do some error in the pricing or even with our special fees for government or other. Right now, there's no ways to change it after the night was "spent" since it already has been "used". It's been bringing a lot of problems on our side when realizing during payment and not being able to change it.

  9. It would be useful to have the option to restore canceled "scheduled payments" during a grace period for quick correction, especially if it was not intended.

  11. Problématiques actuelles :

    Visualisation partielle des montants sur les factures :
    Il est actuellement impossible de voir clairement le montant avant taxes sur les factures client. Cela nuit à la transparence pour les clients d’affaires et complique la gestion comptable.

    Gestion des tarifs taxes incluses :
    Il n’est pas possible de créer des tarifs taxes incluses non exonérés dans MEWS. Lorsque nous devons corriger un tarif ou ajuster une facture, nous sommes obligés de calculer manuellement les taxes à rebours pour que le montant total corresponde à celui prévu. Cela génère un risque d’erreurs et une perte de temps.

  12. Currently, when a property enables surcharging with a surcharging service, a check-box appears on the payments screen, which is checked by default. This check-box allows users to opt in or out of applying the surcharge to a payment.

    Please consider including the option to remove this check-box entirely so that the surcharge automatically applies to all payments when surcharging is enabled. This will streamline the payment process and ensure consistency.

    • Reduces the risk of accidental surcharge omission.
    • Simplifies the payment workflow for users.
    • Ensures compliance with surcharging policies.

  13. We love the optional booking feature and see a great conversion on "bookable quotes", especially within our availability blocks. When guests confirm an optional booking, they need instructions on how to add their credit card via online check-in . When a guest reservation generated in the avaialbility block confirms, the payment calculation derives from the 2nd scheduled payment policy taking 75% of the payment when we only require 25% to confirm. We would love to see a flow through to add payment after confirming optional booking and the system recognition of the deposit scheduled payment over final balance settlement

  15. As we have learned from the MEWS support team, it is not possible to differentiate reservations by payment type in the POS; differentiation is only possible by rate group. This limitation prevents us from implementing an efficient payment automation that would perform pre-authorizations or charges exclusively on the cards of reservations under the "direct payment at the hotel" model. As a result, we are unable to ensure that other reservations — those that have already been prepaid through an OTA, either via credit card or Virtual Card — are not negatively impacted.

    Our request is to be able to differentiate…

  16. The recent Guest Portal update allows guests to either "Pay Now" which can override automatic settlement schedules, or "Pay Later" which takes no action on the payment settlement, per se.

    The "Pay Now" can appear like a Payment Request triggered by the guest but it reveals little information as to why that happened in the first place to the hotel (especially if they have a future scheduled settlement). Some are also concerned about the visuals, especially how it looks as if there are 2 payments that could be triggered at any point (even if that is not designed to happen).

  17. It should not be possible to invoice payment lines in billing.
    Credit Card payments and refunds can be invoiced atm, but that should not be possible.

  18. The 3DS is currently enabled only for reservations made through the Booking Engine and Guest Portal. Ideally, when a guest books through an OTA, the OTA should send the credit card details to Mews, with those details also passing through 3DS for added security. At the moment, they are not as the card issuer bank can choose not to add this security layer.

  20. Currently Payment Links process payments in full.

    It would be nice to also allow properties to send requests for pre-auth. when a payment is not yet necessary to be captured.
