Reservation card – Payment

Hotecx Hotel System

Charge card on file / add payment to a reservation. How to take payment

There are two ways to use the PMS to take payment from guests.

  1. Online payment: Connect to a payment gateway and charge reservations directly through Hotecx Hotel System.

  2. Offline payment: Mark a reservation as paid in the Hotecx Hotel System when the payment method is not made through the payment gateway. Charge reservations with a card machine, cash, bank transfer, etc.

Online payment

To use online payment, a payment gateway needs to be connected to your PMS.
Some payment gateways are not available locally, so feel free to contact us for more information. In case you have a Stripe subscription, you can do the connection in a few clicks.

Navigate to the reservation card and click on payment.

You will see the last four digits of the card, name of the cardholder, and options in a drop-down bar.
