The biggest benefit on top of time saved and revenue collected? It's the mental space it gives back. Everything runs smoothly in the background, so I can focus on more valuable work instead of constantly checking and cross-checking.
Hotel payment processing is more complex than it might seem. It is the entire process by which a payment is made and funds are received, which includes payment by the guest, the process of validating the payment, a transmission of the payment via a payment gateway, authorization, confirmation and settlement.
Embedded payments are native to Mews PMS, with no third parties involved. Integrated payments are bolted on, with more complexity and risk.
Embedded payments make payment processing a seamless part of your operations, creating a smooth automated experience for guests and staff with smart, relevant upsells at every guest touchpoint.
Automated upsells at booking and kiosk, Multicurrency, and frictionless payments can all help to boost revenue.

Mews Payments is embedded, meaning payments and PMS data live in the same operating system.
Payment software helps hotels accept and manage guest payments, while payments infrastructure is the technology that powers payment processing behind the scenes, including security, authorization and settlement.
Embedded payments take this a step further by embedding payment functionality directly into the operating system. This allows payments to flow seamlessly through reservations, check-in, POS and checkout workflows without requiring separate systems.
