Automate guest messages

Send the right message at the right point of every stay, automatically.

What you'll learn

  • Schedule messages around check-in and check-out
  • Send a one-off broadcast to a group of guests
  • Preview a message before it reaches anyone

Most guest questions are predictable: directions, the Wi-Fi password, check-out time. Answer them before they are asked.

Scheduled messages

Scheduled messages are sent relative to a stay — for example a day before check-in, or on the morning of check-out. They use the units listed in each building's automation flow, so a unit missing from that list gets nothing. The Buildings page warns you when that happens.

Broadcasts

Use Broadcast for one-off sends: a pool closure, a festive greeting, a reminder to everyone checking out today.

  1. Choose a template or flow and check the Preview.
  2. Filter recipients — Checking In, Checking Out, Currently Hosting or Upcoming — and pick contacts.
  3. Select Send Broadcast.
