Scheduled tasks is a very practical tool. In fact, they allow you to define a task or a report that will repeat over a period of time, either daily, weekly or monthly.

In addition, the rates give you all the flexibility you need to develop your pricing policy, because they provide you with a whole range of constraints and restrictions.

Report on your commercial management

Having good commercial management means above all knowing how to market your products, your services, your offer.

Hoteliers, get paid!!!

Hoteliers, get paid!!!

 

 

The sale of a room is a negotiation like any other, where the price may be subject to conditions.

Contesting the payment of NANR ? It's from the past

The practice of NANR (non-cancellable, non-refundable) has become widespread as a condition for obtaining a more advantageous price for your customer.

In the event of cancellation, it happens more and more often that the debit or pre-authorization is contested by the card holder. It is often long, expensive, and sometimes impossible to obtain payment.

To overcome this, the Medialog PMS allows in its latest version to integrate PSPs (payment service providers).

The customer receives an email and makes a payment with double authentication, IMPOSSIBLE to dispute

An email with a payment link can be sent to the customers you want ; the payment will thus be made by the PSP and guaranteed firm in the event of double authentication.

Before check-out, the customer receives their invoice by email and can pay it online, without risk of dispute.

The integration of PSP into Medialog also allows you to send your customers an email before their departure which will allow them to consult their invoice, then if they wish to make the payment online.
