How to use a voucher on a reservation

Apply a guest's voucher as a payment on a new reservation — for example, redeem a €120 credit from a cancelled stay against an upcoming weekend booking. Just paste the Voucher ID in the Client voucher payment method.

Overview

This article covers using an existing voucher — applying it as a payment on a new reservation. Each voucher has a unique Voucher ID (a 1-to-10 digit number). To create a voucher, see cancel an invoice or log a refund.


Before you start

  • A voucher must already exist for the guest.

  • Have the Voucher ID ready. You can find it on the reservation where the voucher was generated, or on the guest's client file.


Step by step

  1. Open the new reservation and switch to its Payments tab.

  2. Click Add payment.

  3. In the payment-method dropdown, select Client voucher.

  4. Enter the Voucher ID and the amount to apply, then confirm. The voucher is logged as a payment on the reservation.

📌 Note — the invoice is still issued manually

Applying a voucher only records a payment on the reservation. The invoice for the new reservation is not generated automatically — you still need to issue it manually, the same way as for any other payment method.


💡 Tip — locate an existing voucher

Open the reservation where the voucher was originally generated and check the Payments tab, or open the client file — every voucher tied to that guest is listed there with its ID, expiration, and Remaining amount.


FAQs

Can I redeem only part of a voucher?

Yes — when you apply a voucher, you enter the amount to use. The unused portion stays on the voucher as its Remaining amount and can be applied to another booking later.


What if the Voucher ID is invalid?

You'll see an Invalid voucher ID error. The ID is a 1-to-10 digit number with no letters or spaces — double-check it against the original reservation or the guest's client file.


Can I cancel a voucher once it has been issued?

Yes — open the guest's client file, find the voucher in the vouchers table, and use Delete voucher from its options menu. Once deleted it can no longer be redeemed.
