  1. Currently there is this prefix on guests credit card statements: MS*
    The MS stands for Mews Systems.
    The hotel can configure what comes after the prefix (most likely the hotels name).

    This prefix is confusing and from my point of view not necessary. Therefore my strong suggestion is to remove it.

    We are using Mews Pay with Stripe in the background.

  2. Property requires the ability to take tips on the card terminal (similar to a restaurant operation) without setting up a product in the PMS. Ideal scenario: Be presented with amount to be charged on the terminal - then enter the "total amount" to be charged, incl tips, to finalise the payment

  4. Hello

    Would it be possible to add an e-mail icon beside the printer icon when you want to send a copy of the receipt of the payment made through the Mews terminal to the guest by e-mail.

    For now we have to save it in PDF and then send it by e-mail.

    Hope my request is clear enough to be understood :-)

  5. I would like to be able to see a forecast of each upcoming payout, both when it is expected and for how much. The lack of transparency to this critical data point negatively affects other financial accountabilities outside of Mews such as payroll, vendor/supplier payments, etc.

  6. I would like to be notified by Mews when my property's chargeback reserve has been updated. Having to check this on a daily basis is time consuming. I check it because there's currently no transparent way for me to forecast how much or when the next payout will occur. When the payout is impacted by a change in the chargeback reserve, regardless of whether the chargeback claims are won or lost, the payout can be negatively impact, affecting other financial accountabilities like payroll.

  7. when a client pays with a new credit card at the terminal, it should be enough to choose the type of the credit card and not entering the last 4 digits plus the cardholder name. it's too many steps to fill in, all with the client curious, what you're typing in the system as he has already paid.

  8. Swish is the leading payment method in Sweden used by 80% of the addressable population in both peer-peer payments but also widely used offline in B2C and as digital payment method (offered through partners such as Klarna or Adyen). Swedish hotels that have a large local customer base or for example sell a lot of gift cards would assume Swish is enabled also for Mews Payments.

  11. Payment requests can be used for custom booking engine to integrate Mews Payments and offer on session payments. The payment request can be created through the API, the ID returned can then be used to embed the webpage into the custom booking engine. It's not great for the guest journey that when the payment request is created, an email is send to the customer as the payment request webpage is also offered on session. An optional parameter for the email send would be solve this problem.

  12. Billing in Mews only enables properties to split items between multiple guests but it doesn't allow properties to split 1 item beteen multiple guests.

    If 2 guests want to split the cost of e.g. 1 night, Mews doesn't support issuing 2 invoices to both guests for this night.

    Improve splitting items so that each guest can receive a an invoice if they want to split e.g. 1 night between multiple guests.

  13. AirBnB is a growing platform for hotels. They work with bank transfers, in order to balance the bill, we have to post a manual 'reseller payment' at the moment. This is not very logical for most receptionists. It would be better to have a payment option called 'AirBnB payment'.

  14. BankAxept is the Norwegian local card payment scheme and is the most widely accepted card for point of sale payments.

    The majority of BankAxept cards are co-branded. From these co-branded cards, almost all cards are co-branded with Visa and some with Mastercard.

  16. Would it be possible when previewing/sending Bills (Folios) or Invoices that we can also be availed with the option to automatically embed a Mews Payment request link so our guests can securely pay their bills off?

    At the moment properties need to send a copy of the bill first via Mews Operations and then head back to the payment tab to send the payment request link. In addition to that, the Payment Request email isn't as customizable as they desire.

  17. It would be useful if Mews could automatically close a bill once it is balanced. This would mean the bill is pushed to integrated accounting software (e.g. Xero) at the time of payment being received, so that accounts can be easily reconciled. Currently, a booking could be made in Mews for several months in the future and payment taken at the time of booking, however the bill will not be closed and then pushed to the integrated accounting software until they check out (or it is done manually). This means accounts cannot be easily reconciled without extra work.

    It would…

  18. Very happy to see the option to reinstate cancelled bookings.
    However, Options should still be reinstated as Options, not FUTURE BOOKINGS please.

    Thank you!

  19. the scheduled payment overview on the payment tab is great, but it would be fantastic if we could amend the timing of those scheduled payments.
    for example when you know that hotelbeds pays 30 days after departure, you can amend the payment scheduled for the day of arrival.

  20. It would be great for mews to allow properties to create more external payment methods that we can name what they are e.g. we take a number of different vouchers and we'd like to be able to create external payments that match the name of the voucher names. This would reduce errors with staff.
