๐Ÿš€ Introducing External Upsells: Expand Your Revenue

Written by Sergey Zhizhoma

Weโ€™re excited to launch a powerful new feature in ChargeAutomation: External Upsells.
This gives you the flexibility to promote any third-party services or add-ons directly in your Guest Portal โ€” helping you boost revenue and deliver a richer guest experience.

๐Ÿ”— What Are External Upsells?

External Upsells let you embed links to outside services and experiences right inside ChargeAutomation. Instead of being limited to upsells youโ€™ve created in ChargeAutomation, you can now showcase offers from your partners or other providers.

Examples include:

  • ๐ŸšŒ Tours & Excursions โ€“ city tours, wine tastings, adventure packages

  • ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Restaurant Reservations โ€“ partner restaurants, chefโ€™s table experiences

  • ๐Ÿš– Transportation Services โ€“ airport pickups, private drivers, shuttle services

  • ๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Event Tickets โ€“ concerts, festivals, or local attractions

  • ๐Ÿ’† Wellness Add-Ons โ€“ spa treatments, yoga classes, fitness passes

  • ๐Ÿ›’ Partner Promotions โ€“ local shops, bike rentals, or co-branded offers

๐Ÿ’ก Why Use External Upsells?

  • Boost Revenue โ€“ earn commissions or partner fees from third-party services

  • Enhance Guest Experience โ€“ give guests more options tailored to their stay

  • Total Flexibility โ€“ add any URL in seconds โ€” no coding required

  • Seamless Access โ€“ guests can explore and purchase without leaving your Guest Portal

๐Ÿ’ก How It Works

  1. Navigate to the Upsells section in your ChargeAutomation dashboard.

  2. Click "Create Upsell" or edit an existing one.

  3. Set the Upsell Type to External.

  4. Paste the full URL you want to embed from the third party service

โœ… Best Practices

  • Ensure the URL is embeddable from the third party service

  • Use eye-catching images and concise descriptions to drive conversions.

๐Ÿš€ Start Using It Now

With External Upsells, your Guest Portal becomes more than just a check-in tool โ€” it transforms into a personalized marketplace for your guests.
