As someone who hosts vacation rentals, you’re well aware of the importance of standing out. That’s precisely why we’re partnering with StayFi, renowned specialists in tailored marketing tools designed to capture guest emails for vacation rentals.

StayFi introduces a new level of personalization to the guest experience. With StayFi, you can establish a Wi-Fi network that truly reflects your brand, instantly captivating your guests. But it goes beyond just branding – StayFi empowers you with tools to gather essential data from all guests on your property.

These valuable insights enable you to fine-tune your hosting strategies and significantly boost direct bookings. Meanwhile, your guests are treated to a seamless and enhanced Wi-Fi experience.

What is StayFi?

StayFi is the leading Wi-Fi, email, and text marketing solution tailored for short-term rentals. StayFi’s advanced guest data capture technology effortlessly gathers crucial guest information by utilizing custom-designed Wi-Fi splash pages that showcase your brand. Additionally, StayFi provides integrated email and text marketing tools that have a proven track record of enhancing repeat direct bookings and generating revenue.

To get started, you will need to purchase the access point device that easily plugs into their existing router. Once set up, when a guest logs into the Wi-Fi, StayFi’s custom splash page will appear, inviting them to provide their email information.

What are the benefits of using StayFi?

Branded Guest Wi-Fi

Create a unique Wi-Fi splash page for every guest’s login. Enhance the attractiveness of your vacation rental with custom-designed splash pages that not only greet guests but also effortlessly gather essential information.

Personalize these pages with your brand’s identity, incorporating distinct colors, logos, and branding elements. Whether it’s distinct areas or individual rentals, you have the flexibility to craft multiple pages.

Furthermore, you can guide guests to websites of your preference, whether it’s your official site or Instagram profile. With branded guest Wi-Fi, leave a lasting impact while effortlessly accumulating information.

Email & SMS Marketing

In vacation rental management, emails hold a pivotal role. They are instrumental in communication and nurturing brand loyalty. StayFi’s email and text Marketing service empowers hosts to smoothly convert guests into loyal customers.

You have the ability to establish an email list, select from a diverse range of over 100 templates, and monitor engagement using Google Analytics. Moreover, if you’re already well-versed in email marketing, StayFi integrates seamlessly with the marketing tools you’re already accustomed to (such as Mailchimp, Campaign Monitor, Constant Contact, and more).

Guest email list collection

Enhance your email address acquisition strategy by smoothly integrating it into your existing processes. Streamline the procedure by prompting guests to enter their email addresses during Wi-Fi login – and just like that, and you’ve built a list of every guest, not just the booker. You can even curate distinct lists for your loyal customers or specific target audiences.

With StayFi, hosts can easily collect guest information automatically. However, it’s important to remember that even though guests use Wi-Fi, they might want to keep their email private. This could make them hesitant about getting unwanted emails.

How much does StayFi Cost?

StayFi provides Wi-Fi access points customized to your requirements: UniFi Wi-Fi 6 Lite Access Point priced at $125.00, UniFi WiFi 6 Long Range Access Point at $205.00, and Indoor/Outdoor WiFi 6 Mesh Access Point.
