  1. We have a lot of guests who get double charged because we use the Scheduled payment option. When they get the chance to pre-pay, the system does not remove the scheduled payment, but only creates a task, so we manually have to remove it. It would be a great feature if the automatic settlement would be removed automatically instead of just making a task.

  2. 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.

  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.

  5. In Switzerland, invoices can be issued with Qr codes. As soon as the customer pays, you have the option of downloading a confirmation from the bank in the form of a file and importing it into another program such as Mews. The bank's file contains all details such as date of payment, amount, currency, customer, etc.

    We would be pleased if Mews would offer an import of such files.

  6. At the Point of Sale or Via Billing or Payment Screen: When you make a purchase in a foreign country, the payment should offer visible conversions of the transaction amount before the user posts it - especially for cash transactions.

    Real-Time Conversion: The conversion happens instantly, showing you the amount in both the local currency and your home currency.

  7. I would like mews to send proforma bills to the guests automatically 24 hours/ or xxx time (to be determined per property) before departure, to avoid long time at check-out of reviewing items and solving potential problems quicker.

  8. Our guests make a down payment at the moment of booking of 50%, and for the second half of the payment, we have to send out manually a payment link. It would be great if Mews could create a payment llink automaticallly (xx) weeks before arrival of the guests. It would safe a lot of time. following up on this, it would be great if there was the possibility to automatically get a task if the bill is still open 10 days before arrival.

  9. Once a guest has checked out of your hotel could we have an automated email sent to the guest with an invoice? Could the invoice be sent in PDF or at least have the option of the sending format? We currently have so many calls from guests requesting Invoices.

  11. It would be useful to be able to create custom scheduled payments within the payments section, since sometimes the automated payment fails and disappears (it would be useful to create it again) and sometimes it is necessary to modify it (for example if the originating OTA activates the virtual card only in the check-in date).

  12. We accept Visa and MasterCard but not Amex cards. However, if customers use their Amex card via App pay, Mews payment initially accepts and checks this and only later rejects it. In the meantime, the amount appears to have been debited from the guest, which regularly leads to difficulties

  13. 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.
