ThinkReservations Booking Engine
Seattle, Washington, USA
What it is
ThinkReservations Booking Engine displays rates and availability to lodging guests and is designed to support direct reservations. Properties can customize its appearance to match their website, and guests can book on mobile devices. Rate options include single-night, customer-group, seasonal, and member rates, along with promotions and automatic rule-based adjustments.
The engine can collect deposits, create tasks based on reservation add-ons, update third-party channels, and send guest emails and texts. Listed connections include Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, Tripadvisor, PriceLabs, Google Hotel Ads, and Micros-interface POS systems. Its External API gives partners and integrators access to reservations, availability, rates, rooms, room types, and inventory, and allows them to create reservations. ThinkPayments uses Stripe infrastructure, with card data tokenized and stored in Stripe's PCI-DSS Level 1 environment; 3D Secure is supported for SCA-regulated transactions and high-risk bookings. An August 2026 update added booking-flow translations and automated bot protection at registration, enabled by default. ThinkReservations includes account configuration, staff training, on-demand knowledge articles, and webinars. Pricing is available on request.
