NEW FEATURE: Multicurrency by Mews Payments

Hi Mews crew,  We’re excited to introduce you to Multicurrency by Mews Payments – a brand-new feature dedicated to driving revenue into your property. Let’s take a look at how this could be a game changer for your business.  🔎 What is Multicurrency? Cross-border transactions can be confusing and stressful for international guests. They’re often presented with one price at purchase but then incur hidden bank fees further down the line. Multicurrency has been built to solve that. International guests are given the option to make payments, both online and in-person, in their home currency – with fees being presented transparently. Plus, your property boosts revenue by retaining a portion of markup fees that are usually kept by the banks. So, you can elevate your guests’ experience and, at the same time, create a revenue stream for your business. That’s a win-win. If you’d like to learn more, we’d encourage you to check out this webinar we recently hosted where we share:  How Multicurrenc

Mews Spaces: Unlock value with coworking spaces

Hey everyone 👋 Have you got an unused space in your hotel that’s just gathering dust? An empty server room after moving to Mews, perhaps 👀 Well, as remote work becomes more popular, demand for flexible workspaces is rising. By transforming that old server room into a coworking space* and offering it through Mews Spaces, you could bring in more revenue and attract a wider range of guests to your hotel.   Why coworking spaces just make sense for hotels  Hotels are already set up to receive guests en masse.  Workspaces can attract a wider range of guests, as well as local remote workers.  They bring a new, steady income stream, even out of season.   Ok... but how to go about adding a coworking space to your hotel?  Is there demand? Talk to local businesses and guests to figure out if a coworking space will add value. If the answer’s no, then a coworking space probably isn’t for you.   Is there space? Look for a spot that’s accessible and welcoming but won’t get in the way of your ove

Enhance account security with Trusted Device List Management

With cybercrime rising, there’s an uncomfortable truth we all need to acknowledge: passwords alone aren’t enough to keep our accounts safe. That’s why we’re adding another layer of protection with Trusted Device Authorization in Mews Operations.  It lets you control which devices can access your account, keeping unauthorized users out – even if they manage to get your password. Ready to add some serious muscle to your system security? 💪 Here’s what you need to know. What is Trusted Device Authorization Management? Trusted Device Authorization ensures that only approved devices can access your system. It offers an extra layer of security that prevents unauthorized users logging in, even if they somehow acquire valid login details (through phishing, for example). The latest enhancement enables property admins and users to view and manage a list of approved devices in one place. Whether you need to remove an old device or review active logins, you have complete visibility and control.  W

Email or Authenticator Apps? Selecting the Safest Way to Use 2FA for Your Property

Learn why email is the safest way to use 2FA  Phishing attempts targeted at the hospitality industry are becoming increasingly sophisticated, so staying secure requires extra measures.  Falling victim to a phishing attempt and granting unauthorized access to malicious entities can result in significant financial harm to both your guests and your hotel. It’s easy to make a mistake, especially with how creative these campaigns are.  Prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information  One effective way to protect your business is by implementing Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). This security measure requires users to verify their identity through a secondary method, adding an extra layer of protection to your accounts.  Why choose email for 2FA?  While both email and authenticator apps are safe ways of using 2FA, using email for authentication is our recommended method. Here are the benefits of using email:  Increased security: using a link sent to the email keeps users on legitimate do

Strengthen data security with permissions and admin access controls

Guest data is gold. And like gold, it’s a target for thieves. That’s why we’re committed to providing smart tools that help you protect guest data while maintaining smooth day-to-day operations. One critical setting that every property admin and manager should be aware of is the ‘View customer data’ permission. This simple yet powerful control ensures only authorized staff can access sensitive guest details.  What does the ‘View customer data’ permission do?  Think of this setting as your property’s data gatekeeper. When turned off, users can still access the Reservation Report, but guest details (such as names and contact information) are automatically blurred out. No peeking, no prying, no unnecessary exposure. This means unauthorized users can’t extract or misuse guest data, strengthening your property’s security against potential threats.  Why is this important?  Restricting access to customer data is a simple yet highly effective way to: ✅ Protect guest privacy and security – Not
