Average increase in minibar revenue
Reduction in minibar disputes
Hotels waste countless hours and lose significant revenue due to inefficient minibar processes. The current approach is manual, error-prone, and frustrating for both staff and guests.
Staff spend 5+ hours daily manually checking minibars room by room, taking them away from guest-facing activities.
Manual processes lead to missed charges, untracked consumption, and inventory discrepancies, resulting in lost revenue.
Without visual evidence of consumption, resolving disputes is difficult and often results in hotels writing off charges.
Here's what your staff currently endures every day with traditional minibar management.
Staff print out sheets with departure and in-house rooms, often hundreds of rooms to check daily.
Visit each room, knock on doors, and manually check minibars if the room is unoccupied.
Write down consumed items on paper sheets, often with errors or illegible handwriting.
Manually transfer information to spreadsheets for departed guests and submit for late charges.
A separate team restocks all minibars based on the paper records, often hours later.
This process takes 1-2 staff members 5+ hours per day, leads to missed charges, causes inventory discrepancies, and creates frustrating guest disputes with no evidence to resolve them.

The dispute resolution feature alone paid for the system. We now have photo evidence that shows exactly what was consumed and when.
I used to spend my entire morning on minibar checks. Now it takes me less than an hour, and I can focus on actual guest service.
