Guests

Every guest profile, built from bookings, with search, tags and lifetime value.

What this page is for

Find any guest and see at a glance how often they stay and how much they are worth. Profiles are made from bookings by themselves: bookings with the same email address, or the same phone number, join the same profile.

Who can use it

See guest profiles (by default Admin, Operations, Sales, Finance and Viewer).

How to find a guest

  1. Type part of a name, email or phone number.
  2. Choose a tag (for example VIP or Blacklisted) or a sort order, and select Filter. Reset clears the filters.
