FAQs

What is a digital key?

A digital key is a convenient and secure way for guests to access their hotel rooms using their smartphones. When you check in digitally, the hotel sends a notification to your smartphone, allowing you to use the digital key until you check out. Unlike traditional keys or plastic key cards, which can be easily copied, lost, or stolen, digital keys significantly reduce the risks of unauthorized room access.

What is the benefit of a hotel digital key?

A hotel digital key streamlines the guest experience and modernizes hotel stays, enhancing both convenience and security. With a digital key, guests can bypass the front desk and go directly to their rooms upon arrival, saving time. Digital keys eliminate the need for physical key cards, reducing the risk of loss. Additionally, they can be managed through a mobile phone, providing easy access and the ability to share keys with others.

How does the system work?

Guests are invited via a link or application to use their phone to digitally open their room door. This could by through the internet for cloud based door locks, via Near Field Communication (NFC) or Bluetooth. Our Digital Key uses Bluetooth and a mobile application to communicate with Bluetooth enabled door locks; the guest only needs to tap their phone near the lock to unlock it. Access is configured based on your door configurations and the reservation in Mews.

How to get digital keys?

To get Digital Key from Mews, you should first verify that you have compatible door locks with your door lock provider. Once confirmed, you can visit the Mews Marketplace and purchase the Digital Key add-on. After some brief configuration you'll be ready for your guests to open doors with their phones.

Which door locks is it compatible with?

Our Digital Key is compatible with all Vingcard bluetooth enabled door locks. Compatibility with other door lock providers is planned for the near future.

How to share our Digital Key with other guests?

The reservation owner can share Digital Key invites with other guests in their reservation directly from the Digital Key app. Guests only need to tap the 'Share' icon in the app and can send a link via their preferred communication method. Key sharing is limited to a maximum of the number of guests on the reservation to help maintain security.
