  1. It would help if pre-paid OTA reservations were automatically processed as prepayments in Mews.
    This would save manual work, avoid errors and prevents the guest accidentally paying twice for the reservation at check-in.

  2. Guest payment tab - improvement points:
    - Show if the payment went through 3D secure check so we know if we need to double check the credit card.
    - Chargebacks show currently very messy in the overview and no clear status if we submitted information already etc.to fight the chargeback.
    - Show all refusal reasons and what action to take. Is the issue on the MEWS side or on the guest side and they need to contact their bank? Sometimes refusal reasons are not clear. E.g. “transaction was declined ()” is this always a system issue between MEWS and Adyen? …

  3. If the balance is zero dont trigger a payment again. In certain cases e.g. group res we precharge and it happens that the payment trigger kicks in again later so they pay duplicate a large amount.

    Hi! Would like to hear to how many of you this happens? Def something that we should take a look into, please feel free to send request to your colleagues for an upvote!

  4. For the chargeback report:

    • Link the payments better together like you see them on the guest payment overview with payments & refunds. They are currently mixed in the report.
    • Show on the report how many days the request is open, the last events e.g. similar as you can see in Adyen under the disputes.
    • Currently there is no way to verify easily if we actioned the chargeback and what the status is. Especially working with a team on this and multiple locations there is no way to check this in MEWS and keep good control on it.

  5. Hi,
    More and more we have the issue that payments are declined because the CVV-code is missing. Is it possible to add an extra field where the CVV-code can be noted when adding a credit card manually?

  6. Hello, we need to be able to do refunds on a credit card, sometimes higher than the amount paid, in case of complaints and original payment is done via an agent. We sometimes need to give the guest a quick solution. With other payment providers this is optionable but with Stripe this doesn't work.
    Preferably processed after Accounting approval only.

  7. Pour déclarer une carte invalide sur un OTA il faut donner les 4 derniers chiffres de la carte. Mews n'en montre que 3 pour une amex. Il serait judicieux de modifier vos paramétrages pour que nous puissions en voir 4.

  8. Hello.
    We would like the ability to change items by description on the invoice. For instance, sometimes our restaurant bills has items that need another name on the invoice for the guests / company. It would help, to give items another description manually.
    Thanks.

  11. we have had several complaints from guests who received an email notification when we took payments from an OTA vcc. This is completely unacceptable not only because it creates anxiety with the guest, it also now shows them the real cost of their stay!
    yes, the cc number is not their own, but they should not receive the notification at all.
    there is no way to add the vcc to the PayMaster as our bookings come in via a channel manager and are thus showing on the reservation.
    Please investigate and fix or alert us how to prevent this from…

  12. We suddenly see cc payments coming through as "verifying" and in a high number too. this causes huge confusion for the guests and often frustration as well as they have to wait for codes from the bank which don't always come through immediately. A lot of guests think we are charging them twice and complain about the procedure.
    we are therefore more and more steering away from using Mews payments and charging through the pdq machine instead.
    any reason why this has changed?

  13. It would be helpfull if there can be added more reasons of payment request.
    For instance :
    Payment for Stay
    Payment for Additional services
    Payment for voucher
    Etc.

    We now have to add a message in with the payment request in order to inform the guests

  15. Currently EFTPOS(Electronic funds transfer at point of sale) is not an accepted payment method on the Mews Adyen Terminals.

    EFTPOS is a widely used payment method & is issued by Australian banks. EFTPOS cards are not compatible with visa/mastercard.

  16. Can we have the Payment Report in MEWs amended to include the invoice info details in the report: i.e. move-in date and move-out date, similar to the ref information that is transferred from MEWs to Xero. The reason being that we want to be able to identifiy the payments received pertaining to the revenue for which month. It would be great if we have a detailed payment report which could be matched to the earned revenue period for accounting purposes.

  17. Please add the option to select pre-authorizations as a type in the payment report.

    We want an overview of the pre-authorizations which are pending or verifying. In the payment report there are already status filters for those.

    With the new P2D2 rules, with some guest creditcards have to be verified when making a pre-authorization. And it is currently very unclear to see which pre-authorizations are still verifying/pending, without diving into those individual reservations.

  18. In MEWS there is no option to separately map the google and apple pay in the accounting categories, so they show currently under the wrong GL account.

    Stripe is paying out apple and google pay, while in the setup in MEWS we are forced to have it mapped under Adyen GL.
    Since we directly receive payouts from Adyen & Stripe we need to be able to map these correctly.
    The payouts come from a different company, so you need to be able 1 on 1 reconcile it on the correct GLs.
    We received questions from our auditors, and this is…

  20. We need to sometimes make payments in Mews for cash and manual credit card transactions, but after the stroke of midnight there doesn't seem to be anyway to back-date it to the date you actually want the payment to appear for accounting purposes, and by applying the payment to the new date this further complicates matters because now you're kind of balancing over two days, and in perpetuity!

    Could this please be rectified ASAP?
