1. Room Rate Improvements

Editable Dynamic Rate Prices on Overview

You can now directly edit Dynamic Rate prices on the Overview page — just like base rates.

Room Rate Improvements

Key improvements:

  • ● Dynamic rates are displayed directly under their parent/base rate for easy navigation.
  • ● When a base rate is edited, its dynamic rates update automatically if they use Direct or Occupancy conditions.
  • ● Dynamic rates based on other conditions will remain unchanged on Overview.
  • ● Applying or removing a season to a base rate triggers automatic recalculation for all derived dynamic rates.
  • ● Extra adult & children prices remain non-editable on Overview (available on full rate overview).
  • ● Visual distinctions for dynamic rates will be improved in future releases.

2. Voucher Feature

(Available under Vouchers & Discounts permission)

Hoteliers can now:

  • ● Create vouchers for any price or amount.
  • ● Send vouchers to guests manually via email.
  • ● Redeem vouchers fully or partially.
  • ● Apply them to multiple accommodations, orders, or individual invoice positions.

3. Payment-Related Updates

EFSTA Spain Integration

(Available for hotels with EFSTA permissions, EFSTA Spain product)

We now support full EFSTA Spain integration to help Spanish hotels meet strict fiscal and anti-fraud regulations.

Why this matters for Spanish hotels:

● Spain has strong fiscal compliance requirements, and EFSTA ensures businesses meet all legal obligations.

● EFSTA supports Veri*Factu, the national tax-compliance system defined under Regulation HAC/1177/2024.

● With Veri*Factu, invoice data must follow strict rules:

  • - structured XML format
  • - digital chaining (hash)
  • - timestamping
  • - QR code generation
  • - secure archiving

● EFSTA handles all this complexity automatically: It receives invoice/transaction data from the PMS, converts it into the legally required format, and sends it directly to the Spanish tax authority (AEAT) in real time.

● EFSTA also supports regional fiscal requirements such as TicketBAI (Basque Country).

New in PMS for EFSTA Spain:

● Added a validated Tax ID (NIF/NIE) field for guests

  • - Mandatory only for hotels using EFSTA Spain when the guest’s country is Spain
  • - Optional for all others

● Completed EFSTA Spain connection and setup flow
