FAQ

Why does Guestnet require an email address per guest?

The email address is required to create individual Guestnet accounts and provide each guest with their personal area.

Can I manage multiple guests per room?

Yes, you can assign multiple guests per room and provide individual access depending on your configuration. It is important that each guest has a unique email address stored.

How do you correctly store extras in Guestnet?

You first create the extras in Booking Experts under Setup > Costs. Then you copy the corresponding ID and enter it into the designated field in the Guestnet backend.


​

What happens if new open items arise after the Self-Checkout?

The invoice needs to be updated manually in Booking Experts so that the new open items are picked up correctly.
