When guests check in at your property, do they need to fill in a form which collects more details about them?
If so, GuestJoy's check-in form could help guests have a faster check-in. The guest can send you all this information before they arrive at the hotel!
Where is the check-in form?
Guests will see a button in the Concierge:
They will then see the check-in form; here's an example:
Once they complete the form and submit it, the data will be emailed to your property. It will be sent to the address(es) listed under the setting Settings > Emails > Notifications > Check-in messages. If that field is empty, it will be sent to your main hotel email address instead.
Customising the form
It's easy to add as many questions as you need, and have a variety of answer types. Let's have a look at how it all works.
This switch switches the check-in form on and off.
