Guest Communication

Email, WhatsApp, and SMS — all in one threaded inbox. Every message linked to bookings, every conversation in context.

Three Channels, One Inbox

Guests reach out on the channel that suits them. You respond from one place. TIOO unifies email, WhatsApp, and SMS into a single, searchable inbox with conversation threading.

Email Inbox

Dedicated business email address with inbound processing. Messages are automatically categorised, threaded by booking reference, and linked to guest records. Reply directly from the dashboard and track delivery status.

💬

WhatsApp Business

Connect your WhatsApp Business API account to send check-in instructions, booking confirmations, and reminders via the world's most popular messaging platform. Optional add-on for Growth and Pro plans.

📱

SMS Messaging

Reliable SMS delivery with customisable sender ID. Perfect for time-sensitive messages like check-in reminders and access codes. Automatic fallback when WhatsApp isn't available.

Threaded Conversations

Messages are grouped by booking reference into conversation threads. See the entire history of guest communication in chronological order, including your replies.

  • Automatic threading by booking reference
  • Chat-style conversation view with timestamps
  • Inline reply with email delivery tracking
  • Filter by status: unread, read, replied, archived
  • Full-text search across all messages
  • Bulk actions: mark read, archive, trash
