Step 2: Customize your online check-in form
Online check-in is a key feature of the guest guide, which can significantly streamline the arrival process for your guests.
It helps you collect all the necessary information (and documents) from guests before they even arrive at your property, such as their email address, ID number, VAT number, and details of additional guests.
Upon entering your guest guide, you will see that the online check-in form is enabled by default.
To customize or disable the online check-in form, click here.
If you’re not using a Channel manager or PMS, you can use the online check-in to capture bookings directly on Tourmie. Learn how to convert an online check-in to an accommodation booking.
Importing your bookings into Tourmie brings a range of practical and useful benefits that enhance your guests’ experience.

- Data security: Sensitive information in your guide is displayed only when needed, ensuring data security. Learn about field locking and key/door codes per booking.
- Tailored recommendations: If you offer additional services in your guide, Tourmie creates tailored recommendations based on the guest’s profile.
- Faster online check-in: The online check-in form is pre-filled with the guest’s information, saving them time.

- Invite existing partners: Invite your existing partners to Tourmie, promote their services, and receive your commission automatically and with transparency.
- Connect with Tourmie’s partner network: Connect with Tourmie’s local service providers, offer a wider range of services (such as transfers, car rentals, and tours), and earn your own commission on each booking.
- Connect popular services: Connect popular services to your guest guide (such as museum tickets and activities), providing even more options for your guests.

Step 7: Go live! Share your guide with guests
It’s launch time! There are several ways to get your guest guide into your guests’ hands. Choose the method that best suits your needs.

- Send direct message: Copy your guest guide URL and share it directly with guests via email, SMS, WhatsApp, or through your booking platforms.
