A step-by-step guide 👩‍💻

1️⃣ Access the email settings

To access this feature, navigate to Settings (on your left menu bar)> Templates.

Here, you'll find all your automated emails. By default, there's a confirmation email for bookings made through our booking engine.

2️⃣ Create a new email

To create a new email, click on + New Template.

Then, customise your email by setting up the following:

• Delivery method 📤

  Here, you must start by choosing how you want to send your template:
  
  

  Email: Directly to the guest's email address.

  OTA Messaging (Booking.com and Airbnb): Through the chat (centralised inbox) of these OTAs only, NOT via email. 

  OTA Messaging if no guest email is provided: Uses either the OTA's chat system or email, depending on the contact information provided in the reservation.

   

• Template name 🔤

  An internal title for your reference.

• Template subject 🔡

  The email subject, visible to the client.

• Template body ✍️

  Craft your message here, and don’t forget to use variables to personalise it based on the client's name, reservation details, etc.

• Documents linked 📎

  Attach any documents you want to include with the email.

• Time 🕒

  Define when you want the email to be sent. (Note: The time zone for automated emails is UTC+2).

• Manual bookings 🗓️

  By default, automated emails are sent to reservations from the booking engine and OTAs connected to the channel manager. If you want these emails to also go to manual bookings, tick the Send this email to bookings created manually button.

• Rooms 🏨

  Specify the rooms for which the emails should be sent. By default, they will be sent for all rooms.

• Activation ▶️

  Choose whether to activate this email or not.

• Preview 👀

  Get a sneak peek of the email to see how it will appear to your guests.

  🔔 Don't forget to create the template body for each language you've activated to ensure clear communication with all your guests. 🌍
