HiJiffy is now integrated with SiteMinder, which means that hotels using SiteMinder as their reservation system (TheBookingButton) now have access to a cutting edge AI-powered Chat Booking Assistant and an all-in-one communication platform for all your channels. With this integration, you will be able to drive more direct bookings through real-time quotations and photos of the hotels, increase guest satisfaction through instantly and accurate replies, decrease response time and improve the hotels’ overall service.

SiteMinder is a global hotel industry’s leading guest acquisition platform, trusted for more than 35,000 hotels, across 160 countries, to generate in excess of 87 million reservations worth over US$28 billion in revenue for hotels each year.

With HiJiffy’s direct integration with SiteMinder, users will have access to all available rooms for their selected dates and guests directly within the chat. They are then able to choose a room, make real-time quotes, show availability, price and photos of the room and, in the end, be redirected to complete the reservation. Since HiJiffy chatbot has more than 120 different FAQs ready to reply, it can help guests with their questions immediately and thus influence them in the process of deciding which hotel and which room to choose, preventing unhappy customers and unnecessary calls or emails to the hotel’s reception team.

• Allows the utilization of promo codes from loyal customers;
• After presenting the price, provide customers with a link to click to make the booking easier. The payment of the reservation is made in the Piraty Tech booking engine, to ensure security to the guest.
