Goki-Chat with the Guests (Spaces App)

Goki-Speak directly to the guests by replying their messages

Written by Sarah Mousavi

Goki has built an instant communication system between properties and guests. Once the guest sends the message to the Property, you will get a notification and it instantly appears on Spaces App.


Pre-conditions:

  • This feature is only available to the trial and approved accounts.

  • You should have Chat related Permissions

  • The "Chat & messages" feature should be on


Notes:

  • From the Spaces App, you can only reply to the guests who send you a message, otherwise, to send the first message to the guests you should use Gboard.

  • If the guest sends you a message, you will get a notification on your phone and you can open it by tapping on it.

  • You can Mark as read and Unread by dragging the message row right to the left

  • Staff and guests are able to copy the abstracted link/text on the messages and send it to others if needed.

  • Staff can't send payment requests and Extended stay quotes via Spaces chat.


Notification Settings

"Chat & massages" notifications are turned on by default in the Spaces App.

If you want to turn it off, follow the steps below

  • Open Spaces App

  • Search and open Preferences from the Menu Bar

  • Open "Notifications"

  • Turn off the "Chat & messages" toggle, so you won't get notifications on your Phone


Protip:

  • You are able to send and receive messages in different Properties accounts, regardless of your currently selected Property (in the menu).

    • For example, if you are a staff member with one account in 2 Properties and in both you have chat-related permissions, no matter in which Property you are logged in - In the "Message" section, you have access to both Property massages, under the Property name.
