  2. Payment Step During Online Check-In
    Enhance the online check-in process with a payment function. The payment step can be globally set as optional or mandatory. Additionally, the payment step can be activated or deactivated at the reservation level in the reservation view as needed.

    By clicking the "Check Out Online Now" button in the email, your guest can view their bill and make payment online.

    Once the payment has been successfully processed, the invoice is automatically generated, and the booking is marked as settled. Naturally, the invoice is stored in the invoice archive as usual.

    The self-checkout can be preset as the standard for all bookings, or you can individually define whether your guest should receive an invitation to self-checkout for each booking.

    Betterspace users:
    If you use Betterspace's digital guest folders in your establishment, your guests can also view the invoice on the digital guest folders in their room and perform the check-out.

    Gastfreund users:
    When using Gastfreund's digital guest folder, guests can perform the online check-in directly in the Gastfreund app and view their invoice (optionally adjustable).

  4. Online Payment Option for Deposits
    Add a payment button to booking confirmations, allowing your guest to make a payment with just a few clicks via credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Klarna, Giropay, SOFORT, EPS, Apple Pay, Google Pay, iDEAL, SEPA Direct Debit.

    Once the payment is made by your guest, it will appear in the reservation view.

    You can easily control whether and in what amount a deposit is required for a booking. Simply enter the amount your guest should pay in the "required deposit" field in the reservation view.
