The SALTO Hospitality access control platform allows hotels to offer mobile check-in to guests, which reduces the number of human interactions and allows guests to access their room via SALTO’s native mobile access platform, JustIN Mobile.
The world is currently coping with an unprecedented situation. Millions of people have been asked to stay home, stop travelling or work from home to stop the spread of COVID-19. Many hotel chains already use contactless smart technology such as mobile apps and digital keys to enable guests to seamlessly check-in and out, with coronavirus forcing the hotel and hospitality industry to adapt to new safety, security, and operations practices.
The SALTO Hospitality access control platform allows hotels to offer mobile check-in to guests, which reduces the number of human interactions and allows guests to access their room via SALTO’s native mobile access platform, JustIN Mobile. Using a smartphone, the guest is able to request the hotel room key prior to arrival. The hotel front desk is able to check the guest in via the Property Management System (PMS) and issue them a secure digital key directly to their smartphone.
How does this key app for hotel work?
The JustIN Mobile app replaces the need for a physical access card by securely sending a room key “Over the Air” (OTA) from SALTO’s ProAccess SPACE management software to a registered and verified iOS or Android device. The phone then uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to send a signal to the door’s electronic locks. If the phone is lost or stolen, access can immediately be updated via ProAccess SPACE.
With the JustIN Mobile application, SALTO has created an app that allows guests the power to manage check-in as well as additional aspects of a hotel stay from their smartphone. Guests can avoid lines at the front desk and check-in directly; replacing a physical room key with a smartphone by presenting the phone to the electronic lock on the door; access elevators; change rooms, and even check out. Additionally, staff members can manage visitor keys l to take advantage of digital technology to optimize guest satisfaction and the staff experience.
Using the JustIN app, the guest is able to download a mobile digital key and can then choose to go straight to their room, or they can ask for assistance at reception to ask for a regular check-in or a physical smart key. This enables the guest to make their own decision. Plus, the technology isn’t limited to hotel rooms – The mobile key can also be programmed to automatically use in the elevator, eliminating the need to touch buttons, on main entrance doors, car park barriers, meeting rooms, gym, locker rooms, guest services doors, and more.
Ensuring peace of mind for everyone who legitimately accesses a property, SALTO JustIN Mobile not only controls and secures guest rooms, it can also be used to manage all back-of-house doors used by staff, visitors and suppliers. Increasing security and safety by improving control of staff access and management of their access rights with digital key technology.
