Accessing guests’ credit card details
To charge a credit card for reservations, you need to have access to your guest's credit card details. You can access these details through the Extranet or the Pulse app, and charge the credit card directly according to the reservation policy. Credit card details can be accessed up to three times and for a maximum of 10 days after the guest's check-out or cancellation date.
Contact us if you need access to a CVC code. Keep in mind, when you’ve viewed the CVC once, it will no longer be visible. Never take a screenshot of your guest’s credit card details, and never write them down.
