In the Product Highlight series, we explore various features and functionalities of the Console, our Guest Communications Hub interface. Harnessing your guest communications with the support of our conversational AI is efficient and intuitive, with an automated enrichment of your guests’ profiles in the Contacts section of the Console.
What is the Contacts Page?
The HiJiffy’s Contacts Page allows you to store and manage information about your contacts, whether they are potential guests or existing ones. It is also where your contact records are displayed.
Note: The information displayed in the Contacts menu depends on your subscription.
Where is it?
The contact section is the 3rd button on the left-most menu. It is represented by the icon with 2 people.

Did you know?
Every time a conversation is transferred to the console, the user will be asked to insert their name and email address. If they don’t then the conversation will not be transferred.
This action allows the user to then be able to receive your agents’ answers in their email address, should they decide to leave the website page.
But there is so much more you can do within this tab!

Keeping HiJiffy’s contact page fresh and up-to-date is easy and essential. It makes sure that when guests shout out for anything – a question, a problem, or maybe just to say hi – they get hooked up with the right people in the hotel’s team without any hassle. Quick and easy contact means guests feel taken care of, and that’s a big deal for making them happy and keeping them coming back.
For the hotel teams, this is a goldmine. It makes their job easier because they can sort out issues faster and keep everything running smoothly. But here’s the great part: when guests feel listened to, they’re more likely to join loyalty programs and become repeat customers.
Each chat or email can help the hotel learn more about what guests appreciate, which can make email marketing and other customer relationship management (CRM) efforts really flourish. It’s all about creating those “wow” moments that guests will remember – leading to killer reviews, more sign-ups for sweet deals, and ultimately, a nice bump in the hotel’s bottom line.
