Increasing online check-in conversion

Implementing a bidirectionally integrated tool with the PMS to improve the usability and accessibility of the online check-in process.

Implemented solutions

Bidirectional synchronization between Civitfun solutions and the Opera Cloud PMS of Sercotel.

Previously, the hotel chain had a native online check-in application, but it did not achieve the expected conversion rates.

By adopting Civitfun's solutions, Sercotel has increased check-in conversion by 35%, while also enhancing the guest experience and optimizing front desk operations.

The Online check-in process is completed before the guest arrives at the hotel. Communication channels include an automated email via the Guestlink tool or a check-in button on the hotel's website. The solution features a dynamic form that adapts to the client's profile and integrates an OCR system that extracts ID information, speeding up data entry.

Through exclusive agreements with OTAs, TTOOs, and bed banks, Civitfun's solution maximizes online check-in coverage, allowing it to reach a higher percentage of bookings and impact a broader range of guests.
