For hosts and managers running on Tokeet

Tokeet is the original product in a family that also includes AdvanceCM and Sympl. It covers rentals, a unified guest inbox, channel connections and automated messages, and it holds a lot of the detail a guest needs: WiFi, check-in instructions, house rules and directions. BetterSTR picks those up from each Tokeet rental and turns every confirmed booking into a guest guide, so the information you keep in Tokeet reaches guests in a form they can browse on their phone.

How the Tokeet connection works

1

Choose Tokeet

In BetterSTR, open Integrations and click Connect on the Tokeet card.

2

Tokeet's own consent screen lists what BetterSTR can read: rentals, inquiries, guests, check-ins, images, tags and reviews. Click the blue button to allow it.

Rentals, then a year of bookings

Your rentals import immediately, then inquiries arriving over the next 12 months are queued and usually land within a couple of minutes.

Signed webhooks from Tokeet

Tokeet notifies BetterSTR the moment an inquiry is booked, changed or cancelled, and when a rental is created, edited or deleted. Each notification is signed, matched to your Tokeet account, and followed by a fresh read of that booking or rental, so a confirmed Tokeet booking normally has its guide almost straight away. There's no timed polling on top. If you think something was missed, Sync Reservations pulls your upcoming bookings again.

Good to know

  • No API key is involved. The access BetterSTR receives is renewed automatically, and if Tokeet revokes it you'll be asked to reconnect.
  • Deleting a rental in Tokeet switches it off in BetterSTR rather than wiping its guide.
  • A historical sync can bring in up to ten years of past bookings for SMS marketing. It can run once an hour.
  • Only one PMS can be connected to a BetterSTR account at a time.

Tokeet, AdvanceCM and Sympl: how they relate

The same company makes three products: Tokeet, the original property management system; AdvanceCM, its newer, channel-focused product for operators listing the same inventory on Airbnb, Booking.com, Agoda and their own site; and Sympl, a streamlined option for smaller hosts. BetterSTR connects to each one on its own card. AdvanceCM and Sympl run on the Tokeet platform, so behind the scenes all three use the same connection, webhooks and data. If you move from Tokeet to AdvanceCM, connect the AdvanceCM card instead and your bookings come from there.

There are no Tokeet-only shortcodes. Tokeet data fills the standard guide fields such as the guest's name, stay dates and {{wifi_ssid}}. Guides can also play on an Android TV display at the rental.

Tokeet questions

Do I need to copy an API key from Tokeet?

No. Clicking Connect sends you to Tokeet's consent screen. Approve it and Tokeet gives BetterSTR access directly. The access is renewed automatically in the background.

How fast does a new Tokeet booking get its guide?

Usually within moments. Tokeet sends a webhook as soon as an inquiry is booked, and BetterSTR reads that booking straight away. Changes and cancellations arrive the same way.

Does the guide show WiFi and check-in instructions from Tokeet?

Yes. The WiFi name and password, check-in and checkout instructions, house rules and directions on each Tokeet rental are read into the guide, so you don't type them twice.

Can I import past Tokeet bookings?

Yes. Run a historical sync from the Tokeet page in BetterSTR to bring in up to ten years of past bookings, which is useful for SMS marketing to returning guests. It can be run once an hour.

How are Tokeet, AdvanceCM and Sympl related?

They come from the same company. Tokeet is the original PMS, AdvanceCM is the newer channel-focused product and Sympl is a streamlined option for smaller hosts. AdvanceCM and Sympl run on the Tokeet platform, and BetterSTR connects to each from its own card on the Integrations page.

I'm moving from Tokeet to AdvanceCM. What happens to my guides?

AdvanceCM runs on the same platform and BetterSTR supports it too. Since one PMS can be connected at a time, disconnect Tokeet, then connect AdvanceCM from its own card on the Integrations page.
