Direct bookings over WhatsApp
Close the reservation inside the chat, with real-time availability and real rates, paying no OTA commission. The agent quotes, confirms and creates the booking in your PMS.
The booking happens where the guest already is
When a guest asks about dates, they never have to leave WhatsApp or open an external page. The agent checks your availability, gives a quote with the real rate and walks them all the way to confirmation, all in the same conversation and while the interest is still warm.
Every booking closed in chat is a direct booking: no middlemen and no OTA commission. The revenue stays fully with your property, the reservation is recorded in your PMS and the guest relationship is yours from the very first message.
From the first message to a confirmed booking
The entire path of the sale lives inside the conversation, with no detours.
The guest books without leaving the chat
Whoever writes over WhatsApp has already decided to travel. Sending them to an external page is an invitation to get distracted. The agent answers questions, quotes and confirms inside the same thread, at the moment the guest wants to decide.
- Zero jumps to external pages or forms
- The conversation ends in a booking, not a link
- Your guests’ favorite channel becomes your sales engine
The full revenue stays with your property
Every booking closed in your WhatsApp is a direct booking. Nobody charges you a commission for it and the guest data belongs to you from the first message, not to an intermediary.
- No OTA commission on chat bookings
- The guest relationship is yours
- More margin on every confirmed reservation
Quotes with your true availability
The agent does not answer with generic prices or leave the guest waiting for a reply. It checks your inventory and your real rates before responding, and breaks down nights, rate and total so the guest knows exactly what they will pay.
- Real-time availability against your inventory
- Pricing by season, weekend and length of stay
- Offers alternatives when a date is full
Recovers the guest who quoted and did not confirm
Many bookings are not lost over price, they are lost to silence. The agent follows up with whoever asked for a quote and did not close, and reopens the conversation naturally while the trip is still on the guest’s mind.
- Timely follow-up on unanswered quotes
- The conversation resumes in the same thread
- Your team sees which bookings are about to close
The booking is recorded in your PMS
On confirmation, the agent creates the real reservation in R2 OS and the guest receives their confirmation in the same chat. No manual entry from your front desk and no emails lost in a spam folder.
- The booking shows on your calendar instantly
- Written confirmation inside the chat
- Zero re-entry for your front desk
A collected deposit is a real booking
The payment link travels inside the conversation and the guest pays without switching apps. WhatsMinder flags the receipt and your front desk confirms it, so every booking arrives backed up and no-shows collapse.
- Payment link inside the same thread
- Friendly reminders if the payment stalls
- Your front desk validates every receipt
Most tools quote well and then send the guest to a web booking engine, where the interest goes cold. WhatsMinder confirms the reservation and collects the deposit without taking them out of the chat.
