Digital Authorizations
Replaces the paper credit-card auth form: secure, e-signed, PCI-compliant, on the guest's phone.
Hotel sends an SMS/email with a secure link. Guest enters card info, uploads ID, e-signs, submits with legal attestation.
What this is.
Replaces the paper 'I authorize this card to be charged' form. Hotel sends an SMS/email with a secure link. Guest views auth details, enters card info, uploads ID front/back + a photo of the card, e-signs (type or draw), and submits with a legal attestation. PCI-compliant capture, fully audit-trailed.
- Card capture
- ID upload
- E-signature
- Audit PDF
- SMS + email
Paperless authorizations, in motion.
Three looping previews of how Digital Authorizations replace the form binder, a signature captured into an audit-trail PDF, the send-to-guest delivery status, and an inbound auth email parsed into a structured record.

The Haven AI inside this feature.
Haven is Hotel Central's neural network, one model fine-tuned on how your hotel runs. Here is exactly what it does on this surface; every preview is an animation of how Haven behaves, grounded in your property's own data.
What it solves.
Third-party reservations and group bookings still require a signed CC auth form, faxed back. Compliance is brittle. Digital Authorizations puts the whole flow on the guest's phone.
