BookingCenter's Mobile Check-in lets the Guests update Booking Details, Cancel the booking, complete the Self Check-in process and get Room Entry information from their mobile device. The process is fully integrated with your PMS with synchronized status updates, customized messaging and digital document signing.
Once your site is enabled for Self Check-in, the function is enabled for each booking in MyPMS and is seamlessly integrated with BookingCenter Customized Letters. To start the process, the Guest is sent (email and SMS) a customized "Check -in" with a secure link to MyBooking, the BookingCenter guest portal which allows the guest to view and update booking details and complete self check-in. To implement the Self Check-in- Digital Signing Process, follow the steps below for detailed step-by-step instructions.
