Frequently Asked Questions About ResBook PMS
Here are a few of the most common questions we get asked.
ResBook is the best cloud based reservation management system available.
Manage your rates, calendars, bookings, invoicing, marketing and more, all from within ResBook. Our ResChannel channel manager provides integration with leading OTA's makes advertising your inventory across the web easy. ResBook's Booking Engine significantly reduces the risk of double bookings regardless of whether they are acquired through your own website or an online distribution partner. This is why so many accommodation providers refer to ResBook as "The Hub" of their business.
It is perfect for a wide range of accommodation providers, from a single holiday home to a B&B or Inn; from a backpackers' hostel to a luxury resort.
If you manage a number of vacation homes because you are a property manager then our ResBookVR is the perfect system for you.
ResBook is integrated with so many partners like Kounta, a cloud-based Point of Sale system, so, for small to medium hotels, functionality is covered! Check out examples of clients to see a few real examples of various accommodation styles using ResBook.

Yes! That is the magic of ResBook, you will be able to receive bookings through your website. You can choose to make it instant (take bookings while you sleep) or "on request."
ResBook is not a payment gateway, but we do seamlessly integrate with two options for our customers to choose from:
1. Windcave - which is offered by Direct Payment Solutions (DPS) which is one of the world’s largest leading providers in secure online payment technology. Once set up, your customers can pay at the time of the booking in part or in full. You may also choose to process payments internally.
2. PayPal - a worldwide online payments system that supports online money transfers and is widely popular on most e-commerce sites.
ResBook offers our own channel manager called ResChannel to connect your rates and availability with Online Travel Agents like Booking.com, AirBnb, Agoda, Expedia & more - see our Channel Management page to view the integrations.
You can save on integration costs by taking advantage of our bundled packages that include our PMS, ResChannel and our Booking Engine. We can also connect to channel managers like ResOnline and Siteminder.
Yes, and Yes! It can fit into any website and it is easy. We supply you with a line of code, you take this to your web developer and they can embed the calendar into your website. You can send this link to your developer 'and it shall be done.'
Yes you can, but if you choose to do ‘on request’ bookings then you cannot work with a Channel Manager for your Online Travel Agents (Booking.com, Expedia) because they require instant bookings.

You decide! Depending on the type of package you want and the amount of rooms we have a pricing system that provides you with options to how you want to use the system. To learn more visit our pricing page!
