  1. Mews currently limits the interval length for the connection to the channel manager OpenGDS to 365 days. It would make sense to extend the interval length to 430 days, for example.

  2. When it comes to upgrades and space allocation, the internal flow is different for connector API than it is for channel mgr API, so Mews will not re-assign a new space based on the requested space category change, and the user will need to manually assign the spaces on the Mews side

    It would be nice to consider adding that possibility so Mews can also send proper availability updates to the integrations as a result. Waiting on a user to act could potentially create unnecessary OVBs during high occupancy.

  3. Every Night we have to perform a 'Rate Check" to verify the details of the guests who check in in the next days are all correct in our system. This means comparing the Reservation Confirmation (as an Excel sheet) with other sources.

    It would be helpful to be able to produce a standardised "Reservation sheet" just for this purpose with only a select number of columns (e.g. arrival date, departure date, products) as this would really speed up our process.

  4. To be able to read and write Mews Email Templates in Guest Experiences via the Mews Connector REST API, allowing us to integrate with other email template building platforms or create custom integrations.

    We have design systems and components authored in other platforms. When we update these design systems we would like to automate the update of our email templates across all of our properties.

    To be able to commit html templates to version control systems e.g. git and CI/CD pipelines.

  6. Wenn Änderungen in den Grundeinstellungen von Mews vorgenommen werden, z.B. Änderungen der Stornierungsrichtlinien oder Zahlungsbedingungen, sollte es die Möglichkeit geben, entscheiden zu können, ob die Änderung auch auf alle bereits bestehenden Änderungen zutreffend ist oder nur fü kommende Reservierungen.

    If changes are made to the basic settings in Mews, such as modifications to the cancellation policies or payment terms, there should be an option to decide whether the change should also apply to all existing reservations or only to future ones.

  7. LLMs such as ChatGPT, Claude.ai and others are used on a daily basis and help to simplify numerous everyday problems. It would therefore be important for Mews to build an integration for such models. For example, data such as ADR, sales, payment types, but also reservation data and availability should be able to be queried via an LLM and vice versa. Integration with common LLMs is now long overdue.

  9. Currently, most Reservation Sync logs only note the reservationID string to communicate the necessary sync details to the CHM partner.

    However, some clients can find such details not very user-friendly when attempting to troubleshoot the matter. Is there a way to consider adding some other details that would assist the client an easier way to search for the relevant booking, especially when there is an error or warning? >> Essentially, something that is searchable either in Mews or the CHM extranet. Such as Mews or the OTA's Confirmation Ref Number.

    Perhaps (in the future) even a link to the relevant

  10. Include the possibility to retrieve reservation data based on the booking ID or external locator, so we can get the data of a specific reservation. This is important so we can log in users to different platforms based in their booking ID they have access to and match to the one from their PMS

  11. Integration to the customer service platform called Front. It would be great to be able to reply to guest messages from Mews from within Front.

  12. According to Mews API documentation, there is only an option to get all cashier transactions: https://mews-systems.gitbook.io/connector-api/operations/cashiertransactions

    We would like to see an option to add a cashier transaction.
    The reason is: The fiscal machine in Slovak republic rounds the cash to 0.05 EUR. When the rounding occurs, we need to update the Mews cashier with the correct rounding amount so that the cashier balance and the balance in the fiscal machine match.

  13. It would be nice to grab event via WebSocket when there is a cashier transaction received, paid and when the shift is closing.

    Fiscal machines in Slovakia must record and send every cashier transaction to the government. Inspectors from the government can come on site and pull out data from the government cloud and check if the real cashier balance is the same as recorded in the cloud.

    With this cashier events together with the fiscal machine device commands events we can fulfill legal requirements in Slovakia while maintaining Mews as the main source of the information about cashier balances.

  15. Right now, Mews decides what integrates as "general notes" or "channel manager notes" depending on the keywords from the logs. Clients would like us to consider expanding the keywords for channel manager notes so the comments can be integrated as channel manager notes all the time in the reservations.

  16. We propose enhancing the /api/connector/v1/reservations/add endpoint to allow reservations for multiple properties to be processed in a single request. This functionality would enable guests to seamlessly make reservations across multiple properties, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.

    Currently, this is not possible because the endpoint requires ClientToken, AccessToken, and ServiceId at the root level, which ties the request to a single property. A possible solution could involve modifying the request body structure to include ClientToken, AccessToken, and ServiceId within each reservation. This would allow multiple property reservations to be handled in a single API call.

    An alternative could be adding…

  18. Could it be possible to remove automatic nationalities from 3rd party bookings? We are getting example Expedia reservations all the time where US nationality is automatic but the guests are usually from Europe. This is an issue for Finland as we have to report to the government our statistics of guests. Of course we try to remember change it but many times we forget.

  19. We're currently building an integration using the Connector API and found out that the response of the rates/getAll endpoint does not contain the isDefault value, while this is visible in the Mews Commander interface for each rate. We would love to see the IsDefault present in the API response for this endpoint.

  20. Lifepeaks has built API forward Mews, but unfortunately, it is not currently possible to set Gift Cards as an external payment method for third-party services, such as Lifepeaks, through their API.
    MEWS does not offer this functionality at the moment. Could this be done?

    Additionaly, If Mews would have integration with Lifepeaks, would gift voucher redeem be possible from booking engine. This would be an ideel world.
