Turn off automatic settlement for manual bookings
Currently when adding a booking manually with credit card details, an 'automatic settlement failure' email is sent to guests despite card details being taken over the phone and the option to process payment manually in Commander. When creating manual bookings, we need to be able to turn off automatic settlement and take payment there and then.

Bank Account change
Currently, if hotels have to change Bank Accounts for their payouts, they need to go through a lengthy process with Support to get this done. If the option is available in Mews directly, we could do it with one click. Of course only finance or admins should have this permission.

Payment link
It would be very helpfull to have a option to send a secured payment link to guests or companies, this In order to avoid chargebacks and makes it easier for external companies or persons to pay someones reservation via credit/debit card. This also helps whenever a guest doesnt have the credit card of they room payment with him.
Like this you fraude can be eliminated.65 votesHi Mewsers!
I am happy to announce that the payment request feature was released just now.
Payment request is friendly and convenient way how to collect payments from your guests or bookers. The best thing about it is that you can send requests directly from Mews Commander. :-) Learn more about the feature in our Help guide: https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4245457-send-a-payment-request-by-email .Please let us know how do you like it and we are looking forward to your ideas for improvement here in feedback portal.
Have a great day,

Insert a QR code in footer of bill
At present in footer of all our bills we thank the guest and have also inserted bank account details for payment. This is used to be able to send invoices to companies and not have to write separately in e-mail. They can do copy and paste in their banking programs.
Starting 2021, more and more the new European QR code with all payment information will be used. Is it possible to
1. have an automated QR code be generated with all necessary information
2. have this QR code printed on invoice in footer
Thank you2 votesHello everyone,
Thank you for submitting the idea. As long this is another great idea, unfortunately, this is not something we have planned to work on in the nearest future due to us focusing on different priorities – such as: adding new alternative payment methods.
You can still upvote, submit or comment on the idea and we can any time get back and have a discussion around it.
Looking forward to hearing more suggestions!

Deposits on manual payment types
When Mews automatically takes payment from credit card it will at the same time create debet and credit deposit transactions. Credit card payment will be closed with other transaction and other one stays open on the reservation with all the booked items. Would this be possible with all the manual payment types also? We need this feature for our book keeping to keep on track where the money comes from. And if these payments are not on closed bill it the will not be shown on the payment report as our accounting needs.
3 votesHello,
Thank you for your feedback!
It is unlikely that we will be working towards automating manual deposits payments, for this reason we have automatic settlement and automatic deposit closure, as you have mentioned which can be configured on the rate group level, and thereafter matched with rates you’re offering to your clients.Kind regards,

An option in mews payment when guests prefer not paying with credit card
Guests get a standard e-mail from mews that they have to fill in their credit card details, while some guests prefer to transfer the money or have paid through a channel as hotels.nl. Can we get an option to fill in if guests are paying with their credit card or otherwise, so not everyone gets the e-mail.

Add receipt data on invoices (Mews Terminal)

Failed automatic settlement notification improvement
When there's a failed automatic settlement, a task is put into MEWS. I would like different options just than a task, so I could for example also be notified by email. Also, I would like to change the settings for the desk (adjust the deadline and department for example)

discover and jcb cc
the mews does not allow us to get discover card or jcb card while making the reservation but it does gives you the option to find the reservation which had made payment using the discover card or the jcb card?
i mean how and why this makes the procedure more slow and sometimes guest they need to run to get cash.3 votesHello team,
Thanks for creating this idea!
We have enabled Discover and JCB for terminal payments, moreover, we have enabled same payment methods for the US market. Due to the limitation of our current payment providers (Stripe), we cannot enable the above-mentioned payment methods in the EU but on the other side, we have recorded your request to our partners and your AM will reach out to you for any further update.
If you’d have any other specific request, feel free to create the additional idea.
Many thanks,

To not allow a credit card that expires prior of guest arrival to be able to confirm a booking
At times we have reservations from where at the moment of booking the credit card is valid, however it expires prior of their arrival.
We cannot accept reservations with an expired credit card since we then cannot collect payment. For security reasons we also do not prefer to take cc over the phone or by email. Is there is a way that the guest can get a notification that when they book their stay with us, the credit card will expire prior of arrival and to use a different card.30 votesHello from the Mews product team.

CARD PAYMENTS
WE HAVE LOST 3 GUEST THEY DID NOT HAD ANY OTHER CARD THAN THE DISCOVER TO PAY FOR THE ROOM...
THE SYSTEM DOES NOT ALLOW US TO USED FEW TYPES OF CARD AND WHEN I HAD A WORD WITH THE REPRESENTATIVE THEY TOLD ME TO ODER AN TERMINAL THAT WILL HELP TO ADD THOSE CARD!!!
SERIOUSLY TO ENTER CARD DETAIL WHICH DOESN'T ACCEPT THE MANUAL ENTRY THEY WILL BE ACCEPTED MY TERMINAL....
IT SHOULD THEN COME IN A PACKAGE WHERE YOU RENT THE SYSTEM AND THE TERMINAL...
1 voteHello Kaushal Rawal,
Thank you for providing the feedback to our platform.
Apologies for causing any confusion, but as I see you’re US-based account, we do accept JCB, Diners, Discover Club, China Union Pay both online and offline (terminal). Please reach out to your Account Manager and he/she will review your contract and will take a look at what needs to be setup on our side, so you can start accepting mentioned card brands. For integrated terminals with Mews, you can also take a look into this webpage – https://www.mews.com/products/terminals.
Thanks again a looking forward to hearing your ideas in future!

Refund
Automatic refund when clients declare it's a fraud in their bank.
Of course there are some mistakes but we should have the right to prove that it was an error or not and the system automaticly sends the money without any heads up or information.
If every person does that we will lose a lot of revenue and we can't even argue since its automatic.7 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Assign payments to certain cards (VCC)
When there is a VCC and guest's credit card on the booking, the accommodation payment that should be charged back to the VCC always seems to be charging the guest's credit card. To be able to assign different credit cards to different payments, or at least just VCC's would avoid a lot of overcharging of guests.
8 votesHello from the Mews product team.
Unfortunately, this request has not received the necessary upvotes to be added to the Mews development roadmap.
If the reservation is made with a VCC, VCC is being attached to the reservation, Mews is using that card for the purpose of the reservation as that's the prefered payment method added by the guest, however, if the rate is set to manual and the guest adds new payment method, it's up to front office agents to choose which card is more relevant. However, with VCC, the guest has already paid on the OTA's side, which is the reason this idea brings some additional difficulty and may drive more user mistakes.
