So nutzt du geplante Nachrichten, um Zeit zu sparen

The scheduled messages tool helps you automatically share important information with guests at specific moments, like the day of check-in. It allows you to create standard messages and schedule them to send at the times when guests are most likely to want the information.

You can also create quick replies, short templates used to address common questions, to save time when messaging with guests.

Go to the messaging settings in your Messages tab to write and schedule messages.

You can personalize these messages by inserting shortcodes. These placeholders pull information from both your listing and your guest’s reservation, like your house rules and their name and check-in date. Make sure your listing details are complete and up to date because messages with empty shortcodes won’t send correctly.

Use the drop-down menu to insert shortcodes. When you’re finished writing, schedule the message by choosing which guest action will trigger sending it. You can always edit, skip, or send a message earlier than scheduled as needed.

Here’s how you could use shortcodes in a scheduled message:
