Smooth Check-In. Higher Conversion. Better Guest Experience.

MARKETING

How Superbude uses WhatsApp with dailypoint™ to enhance guest communication and operational efficiency.

Why it matters: Superbude, a lifestyle hotel brand, had introduced a self-check-in system that allowed guests to complete their check-in prior to arrival via a link in the pre-stay email, speeding up the on-site process. How-ever, usage of this system was low, particularly among OTA guests. Only direct bookers made frequent use of it, resulting in a consistently low adoption rate of around 20–30%.

OTA platforms often don’t allow proper placement of links – such as for pre-check-in – which limited the available options. One piece of guest data, however, was almost always available: the mobile phone number.

Top 3 Core Objectives: Superbude aimed to simplify the check-in and check-out process through automated WhatsApp communication and significantly increase self check-in conversion.

Reducing front-office workload: Centralize guest communication and data.
