  1. Tips on top of total amount

    We are currently using a WisePOS E payment terminal and would like to enable an on-screen tipping feature. Specifically, we want customers to be able to select a percentage-based tip (for example, 5%, 10%, 15%, or custom) directly on the terminal screen before finalizing the payment.

    The tip should be automatically added on top of the total amount and processed as part of the same transaction. We also need the payment (including the tip) to be properly recorded and reconciled within Mews.

    Please confirm the simplest way to configure this setup and whether this…

  2. The 'Rebate' function is currently causing issues in our customer communication and accounting. When a bill is rebated, we are unable to reissue it as an open bill, which is problematic for several reasons:

    Customer Experience: We often do not want to send a credit note or proof of a rebate to the customer—for example, if we are simply correcting an internal error or removing a product. Providing a new receipt showing a rebate is confusing and lacks logical UX.

    Integration with BookVisit: Our connectivity is dependent on being able to resend reservations to MEWS. If we accidentally close a…

  3. To configure the automatic pre-authorization/debit by linking it to the arrival date and rate code instead of by rate group. Increase the configuration possibilities in payment automation by adding day ranges. Very important for BW Hotels with fixed rates and rate groups

  4. We are happy in using MEWS Booking Engine across multiple properties.

    We recently added MEWS Gift Voucher integration and will be launching it on our property websites soon.

    We hope to streamline the process of redeeming the vouchers. A voucher payment method in the booking engine would be awesome!

  5. Many payments seem to be stuck in 'verifying'. Can Mews Payments take the CCV and cardholder's address & postcode in order to fully validate the card when taken over the phone?

  6. It would be extremely helpful if single products could be included in a cancellation policy. At the moment, there are only three options: only the service, all products, or a combination of both. However, in our case, we need only one specific product to be part of the cancellation policy.

    For example, we have to charge a service fee with 19% VAT, while the rest of the room is charged at 7% VAT. We need to reduce the price for the service by, let’s say, €1 (making the total service charge €89), we then need to add €1 as a…

  7. Sería perfecto si pudiesemos tokenizar la tarjeta de crédito de un cliente en el momento del check-in acercándola al terminal de mews, de este modo no tendríamos que hacer pre autorizaciones o cargos para registrar tarjetas de crédito. Opera utiliza este formato y la verdad es que agiliza mucho el check-in.

  9. Automatic pre authorization renewal after expiration, as long as the check-out date is not in the next 28 days .
    Maximum 28 days is not enough when the booking is in 3-4 months or later.
    Or maybe add an alert on the task manager as soon as the expiration occurs to make the hotel decides if he renews or not.

  10. More granular reporting for all External Payment Types in the Payment Report, especially for hotels that use more than 1 type. Especially for the PDF version - currently, even when filtered, it contains too much data. Narrowing down the data could prove useful.

  11. We would need a more flexibel export time frame.
    As we would need for example the export for the atuel month, the next and the third month in a row on the reservation report.
    It would be great to set a flexibel time on the export.

  12. To save time, when it comes to receivable invoices, we should be able to process invoice payment in the invoice itself instead of going to the dashboard of the customer or company profile.

  16. 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.

    Manque…

  18. 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…

  19. Currently, when processing external card payments, users must manually add a surcharge, which can be inconvenient and prone to error. My proposal is to introduce an option—similar to the “Add Credit Card Surcharge” feature available under “Process Payment”—directly within the external card payment workflow. This feature would automatically calculate and apply the appropriate surcharge based on preset criteria, streamlining the payment process and reducing manual input. It will enhance user experience, ensure consistency in surcharge application, and minimize errors.

  20. Enhance Mews’ payment processing capabilities that allows to:

    Consume structured payment data from Booking Engine via existing API.

    Recognize external payments processed via PSP and properly flag them as settled within Mews.

    Prevent Mews from triggering settlement policies when a deposit policy is applied.
