THE HEART OF THE SYSTEM – User Friendly Reservation ScreensThe multi-function reservation screen allows the operator to call up all the necessary details without having to go to other menus. Single-key operation means the system is very easy to learn and operate. The screens can be customized by the operator to show only the fields that are relevant to the user or property.

Bookings can be made directly from the comprehensive booking chart below. Reservations can be created, changed, moved, extended or split all from one screen. Rates are instantly calculated and displayed as the reservation is being created. It is easy to manage multiple guests, additional charges and split seasons. Quotes can be moved to confirmed status with the appropriate deposit. You are in control to change the display to show name, balance, group name, market code, etc.

MOBILE RESERVATIONS

Bookings Anytime…Anywhere !!

Unprecedented Customer ConvenienceWhat guest doesn’t have a cell phone?

What guest doesn’t want the convenience of instant reservations?What park doesn’t want the benefit of 24/7 cash flow from online

reservations?

The age of the “smart phone” is revolutionizing not only how you communicate with your guests but more importantly… how your business

interacts with your guests!! It is providing them with unprecedented conveniences unlike any we have ever seen in the hospitality industry.

The term hospitality has come to mean as much about providing convenience through self-service tools as it means to provide personal

guest services.

Bookings from Smart Phones and Tablets

Page 11: RMS eBrochure

RMS MOTEL / LODGE / INN / B&BANYTIME…. ANYWHERE!!

The new definition of “Hospitality Service”

RMS provides convenience to your guests through its RMS iBookings module. More than the convenience to the guest is the ability to capture reservation revenue 24/7 directly into your back account with no delay from us.

RMS iBookings is smart enough to understand what type of device you are using and automatically opens the appropriate size screen. This works for iphones, ipads, androids, tablets, or any other device.

Watch our informational videos at: www.youtube.com/user/SoftwarebyRMS/feed

The RMS iBookings screens have been designed specifically for the small screen with simple processes and nice big buttons. You can pretty much complete the entire booking process with one thumb.

To get the most out of RMS iBookings, it makes sense to also have your website optimized for mobile devices so when a guest comes to your website from an iphone, they have a fast track to iBookings.

The best part is that there is nothing for you to do if you use RMS Online, this is already working now.

RMS iBookings… helping you to keep pace with a mobile world!

By definition of the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA DSS) any application that does not store, process or transmit credit card data is out of scope of PA DSS and is not required to comply. Customers who are seeking to establish a business environment that complies with the PCI DSS should consider using RMS.

RMS is configured in such a way that it is impossible to store credit cards in any part of the system. Neither can it process or transmit card data. Furthermore it cannot be re-configured by the user to allow for the storage of credit cards post installation.

ACH / DIRECT DEBIT

Pay Your Credit Card CompanyOr Pay Yourself… It’s Your Choice

PAY YOURSELF !!There is a lot of change going on in the credit card industry with the pending legislation to enable businesses to charge their guests the percentages credit cards charge you, the business. With RMS you can immediately take advantage of these changes because RMS has allowed this ability for years.

More importantly! RMS is there to help you avoid the credit card charges all together by offering the ability to direct debt your guest’s bank account for those long term guests who stay month after month with you.

A small monthly service direct debt service charge or the “ching-ching” sound from your credit card percentage… Now You Have a Choice!!
