Customize the content of guest emails

perm_identity
Who can use this feature?

The customization of guest emails is available from the PREMIUM plan onwards.

You can customize the content and body of most guest emails sent via resmio. This is useful, for example, if you want to give guests additional tips or offers for their restaurant visit.

  • Click on Settings” > “Emails“. Then select any guest email from the overview.
  • You can now customize the specific content of the email, such as the subject line and the welcome text, according to your needs. Your changes are shown in real time in the preview on the right.
language

Please note: All default texts in emails are automatically adjusted for guests according to their language preferences when booking online. If you customize a text in the email, it is no longer possible to automatically translate it. Please provide your own translation in the relevant column if necessary.

  • It is possible to place an additional button for marketing purposes. This button is linked to your digital menu, an event or the voucher store. For security reasons, it is currently not possible to link externally to any website.
  • All default settings can be easily reset by clicking on Restore default email above.

Check email delivery status (after guest complaint)

perm_identity
Who can use this feature?

Guest activities can be viewed from the PREMIUM plan onwards.

resmio automatically logs certain guest activities relating to table reservations, including whether emails were delivered to the guest and whether they were opened. This feature can be helpful in the event of any complaints.

You can see the guest activities under reservations and in guest profiles.

There may be several reasons why emails to guests are not delivered or are delayed:

  • The e-mail address is incorrect (contains typing errors, for example) or does not exist
  • The email could not be delivered because the recipient’s mailbox is already full
  • The recipient has specified that they do not wish to receive emails from resmio / your restaurant
  • The email has ended up in the spam folder
  • The email address is on our “blacklist” (e.g. due to suspicious spam activity)

We will show you in the guest activities whether there has been any problem with email delivery. With a valid phone number, you will then be able to contact the guest personally if necessary.

On our own behalf: We send over 100,000 emails every day. We aim for 100% deliverability, but unfortunately this is not possible in practice. In isolated cases where delivery has not worked, it may be advisable to ask the guest for an alternative email address and resend the confirmation.

Change contact e-mail address for restaurant

The email address noreply@resmio.com is used as the sending email address for guest emails.

In the interests of a better user experience, guests can still reply directly to reservation confirmations, reminders and other emails. The reply email corresponds to the email address specified in the restaurant profile for your resmio account.

How to change the contact email address of your restaurant:

  • Click on Facility Account > Profile.
  • Scroll down to the Contact details section.
  • Here you can change your contact email address for guests.

The choice of preferred contact method only affects the widget, not emails.

Tip: It is best to use your own e-mail address / mailbox for reservation requests, for example bookings@restaurant.com

Enable Browser notifications

Browser notifications are particularly useful if you use resmio in the restaurant on a notebook or desktop PC / Mac.

When enabled in resmio, our system attempts to access the settings of your Internet browser.

Notifications have to be permitted explicitly in your browser as well as the operating system (Windows / Mac) or must be activated if necessary. If this is not the case (e.g. in incognito mode), you will receive an error message.

To activate Browser notifications follow these steps:

  • Click on Facility Account > Notifications.
  • Scroll down to the Set notification permissions button. Click to activate this function.
  • Your browser may ask you to allow the request for desktop notifications.
