Book4time integrations<br />

Let’s take a look at real life examples of integrations and<br />

use-cases with those we have at Book4Time today.<br />

PMS<br />

The Property Management System (PMS) is the core system<br />

used by hotels and resorts. This is the system that manages<br />

the room bookings and guest profiles amongst other things.<br />

If a Hotel guest books a spa treatment during his or her stay,<br />

the spa needs to have the ability to look up the guest’s profile<br />

for the reservation and charge the guest’s spa treatment to his<br />

or her room. Simple right? Well to accomplish these tasks, the<br />

spa system needs to be integrated to the PMS system.<br />

Today, Book4Time integrates with many PMS systems including<br />

Opera (Oracle Hospitality), Infor, Guestline, Galaxy,<br />

Agilysys and many more, to ensure that hoteliers can centrally<br />

manage their guest accounts, and to provide an excellent<br />

customer experience.<br />

ACCESS CONTROL<br />

You’re checking in at the spa for your massage appointment.<br />

The concierge makes a few clicks on the system and hands<br />

you an access card. This card grants you access to the<br />

change room, your assigned locker, the lounge, and all amenities.<br />

Assigning your access card or wristband may seem like<br />

a straightforward process, which it is – with the help of an<br />

integration.<br />

MARKETING & CRM<br />

A large part of managing a hotel and spa is the capacity to<br />

which you understand your guests and how you interact with<br />

them before and after a stay or treatment. How many times<br />

have they stayed at your hotel? What time of the year did they<br />

stay? What did they purchase when they stayed? What spa<br />

treatments did they book in the past? Are they a local guest?<br />

How do we answer these questions? You’ve probably guessed<br />

it by now; integration.<br />

Today, Book4Time integrates with systems like Demandforce<br />

and Revinate, who generate customer insights by capturing<br />

guest data. With these insights, the spa can answer the questions<br />

posed above. This information allows the spa to segment<br />

their guests and offer personalized experiences and/or promotions<br />

for more effective, meaningful engagement.<br />

Book4Time partners with Access Control systems like Gantner<br />

to allow spas to easily manage and assign access to amenities,<br />

lockers, lounges, and different member areas from one<br />

system.<br />

GUEST EXPERIENCE<br />

Wouldn’t it be nice to have the option to check-in to your hotel<br />

room, order room service, make a dinner reservation, and book<br />

a massage, all from a single mobile app? Enter guest experience<br />

applications. These apps are designed to improve — you<br />

guessed it — the guest experience. But how exactly are they<br />

able to manage your dinner reservation or spa booking? One<br />

word: integration.<br />

Today, Book4Time partners with guest experience applications<br />

including Intelity, Hudini, and DigiValet to allow guests to<br />

make a spa or activity booking right on the hotel’s mobile app.<br />

Integrations allow businesses to save time, improve customer<br />

experience, run smoothly and do things they would never be able<br />

to do otherwise.<br />
