Hostfully and Lynx work seamlessly together with a 2-way integration. Hostfully gets authorized with Lynx in a few simple steps and exchanges information in real-time.
Lynx receives guest and stay information from Hostfully like name, email, phone number, date, time, and confirmation number. Then, Lynx provides:
- Digital Keys and Access Codes: Lynx sends Hostfully guests’ access codes. Lynx can manage guests’ access to room doors, shared dorm rooms, access to amenities like a gym, pool as well as common doors like lobby and garage. All the access codes and digital keys generated by Lynx are unique for each guest and valid only for the duration of the stay. Customization is possible, for example to add “Access Buffer” to extend access for common doors. When working with smart locks with keypads Lynx generates a 4-digit access code which is the last 4-digits of the guest’s phone number. Lynx can generate a digital mobile key for all smart locks. Guests can receive the access information via Hostfully email message.
- Guest Portal with Room Controls: Guest portal shows stay information, guide book, map, weather and offers upsells to guests.
- Guest portal (no app download): This can be completely customized for multiple brands in your portfolio. Guests can access digital keys and all smart room controls.
- Guest Portal with Digital Concierge: With Lynx Guest Portal you can offer your guests, digital concierge, upsell, early check-in, late check-out, sell tickets, rentals, and packages. Set rules and triggers to offer in-house upsells, third-party services, or destination packages. Plus, Smart Check-out option for guests.
- Notifications & Reporting: Email/Text notifications are available. Lynx will maintain an audit trail as well as offers proof of stay to dispute false refund requests. Reporting dashboard included.
