By integrating RoomRaccoon's PMS with a hotel POS system, you can allow guests to "charge it to their room," providing a better guest experience and simplifying billing.

HOW IT WORKS

Multiple Hotel Transactions, One Bill at Checkout

From pillow to pool, spa to dining, our hotel POS solution partners help you streamline every guest transaction into one seamless bill.

By connecting your selected POS solution from the RoomRaccoon Marketplace to our PMS, you can ensure that all charges incurred during the guest's stay are accurately reflected on the final folio, eliminating the need for manual tracking.

Eliminating the hassle of multiple payments enhances your guest experience, making every moment at your property effortlessly enjoyable.

Save More with Fewer Transaction Fees

Every swipe, tap, and card insert costs you transaction fees. RoomRaccoon’s hotel POS integration reduces transaction fees by consolidating all charges into a single, comprehensive bill per guest account.

No more juggling receipts or losing money on multiple transactions. Keep more of what you earn with our integrated POS solutions.

Upsell Guests Before Arrival

Do you have a spa, restaurant, or bookable spaces? Increase revenue and delight guests by offering spa treatments, dining options, parking, conference rooms, and more with RaccoonUpsell, our fully integrated digital guest service menu.

How does it work? It's simple: Guests are sent a pre-arrival email from our PMS, which directs them to an online check-in portal. By clicking the link, they can choose to add optional extras to their booking.

A single platform to increase revenue, streamline operations & delight guests.

FAQ: All About Hotel POS Systems

1What is a hotel point-of-sale system?
A point-of-sale (POS) system is a combination of software and hardware that facilitates the processing and recording of transactions between your hotel and your customers (guests).

A typical configuration of this system includes a computer interface, cash drawer, barcode scanner, and credit card reader. Its software components often include functionality such as booking, check-in/check-out processes, and payment tracking. Every time a guest pays, they complete a POS transaction.
2How do hotel point-of-sale systems work?
The hotel's point of sale (POS) system connects to RoomRaccoon’s property management system (PMS) in real-time to confirm the guest's status and room number.

The interface then automatically adds the charge to the appropriate folio number within the PMS. This allows staff to dedicate more time to guest service and reduces billing errors often caused by misplaced tickets and typos.
3How are items billed through a hotel POS system – individually or grouped together?
Hotel POS systems adapt their billing approach based on guest activities. While many systems group transactions into revenue groups for simplicity, some allow items to be billed individually.

For instance, if a guest indulges in spa treatments, enjoys a meal at the restaurant, and stays in a room at your hotel, their bill may include a mix of grouped charges. Each item will be listed separately on their bill, providing a detailed breakdown of their expenses.

This tailored billing method ensures guests understand their charges clearly and allows for precise accounting for your hotel.
4What is the main advantage of mobile point-of-sale devices?
The main advantage of mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) devices for hotels is the enhanced flexibility and convenience they offer. They allow transactions to be processed anywhere within the hotel, enhancing guest service. Key benefits include:

Improved Customer Service:Staff can process transactions anywhere on the premises, offering more personalized and efficient service.

Streamlined Operations: Enables quick check-ins/outs and other transactions on-the-go, reducing wait times.

Increased Sales: Allows staff to upsell services and products directly to guests, boosting revenue.

Enhanced Guest Experience: Provides guests with the convenience of quick, efficient transactions.

System Integration: Integrates with the hotel’s property management system for accurate, real-time record-keeping.

Space Efficiency: Reduces the need for multiple fixed POS terminals, freeing up space.

Security: Offers advanced security features and PCI compliance for secure payment handling.

Overall, mPOS devices improve efficiency, guest satisfaction, and revenue opportunities in hotels.
