Interface for property management systems

If you use a property management system (PMS), certain device types and series give you the option of connecting your Public Spot module with your PMS database via the PMS interface. If you operate a hotel, this offers you the possibility of automatically providing your guests with access to your Public Spot when they register. This access can optionally be free of charge or fee-based (using prepaid time credits), whereby all fees are charged to the guest's bill for their room. The last name, room number and, optionally, an additional security ID (for example, registration number or departure date) are used as login data.

In contrast to a voucher solution, using the PMS interface gives you the advantage of not requiring any additional administrative steps for the setup and management of a Public Spot user account. The device creates a user account by itself as soon as the user accesses the Public Spot and logs in with his registration data. Any future changes for this guest (room change, departure date change, check-out, etc.), which affect registration, are retrieved autonomously from your PMS.

The following login methods are currently supported:
  1. Voucher
  2. PMS login
  3. PMS login and voucher
  4. E-mail
  5. SMS
With login method (2), the login, for example, for hotel guests, can be based on the room number and last name, while you sell vouchers to your guests in your restaurant. Of course, even with the PMS interface enabled, you still have the option to issue vouchers, for example, for day guests or visitors.
Note: The login method is configured globally for each device, and is thus the same for all SSIDs or networks.
Note: The PMS interface currently only includes support for hotel property management systems from Micros Fidelio via TCP/IP.
Note: Currently, the PMS interface is only available for the following device types and series:
