The problem

Digital guest registration without the paperwork

Collecting guest information manually slows down check-in and creates unnecessary work for your front desk.

SabeeApp ID Scanning helps hotels digitise guest registration by capturing identity details directly from passports and ID cards and transferring them into the PMS. Whether guests complete the process before arrival or your team scans documents at reception, every detail stays connected.

How it works

Scan guest IDs wherever check-in happens

Before guests arrive, or the moment they reach the desk — the same guest record either way.

Before arrival with GuestAdvisor

Let guests complete online check-in before they reach the hotel. They can provide their details and scan their documents in advance, allowing your reception team to prepare arrivals before guests walk through the door.

  • Shorter queues at reception
  • Faster arrivals
  • Better first impression
  • Less administration for your team

  • Fewer data entry mistakes
  • No additional scanning hardware
  • Works anywhere on the property

Part of SabeeApp GO

ID scanning lives inside SabeeApp GO

SabeeApp GO is the mobile app your reception team works from. Scanning guest documents is one part of it — the rest of the arrival, the reservation, and the guest profile are all in the same place, so nobody has to walk back to a desktop to finish the job.
