Common questions: Minibar & extras

What does STRYK connect across minibar and extras?+

The property centrally maintains services with name, price and sales logic. Minibar consumption stays on the stay; public or check-in extras are stored as specific booking items.

Which data does a minibar item have?+

Name, category, unit, price, default quantity, order and active state form the item catalogue. The team works with a clear assortment instead of freely typed labels.

How can minibar items be grouped?+

Drinks, alcohol, snacks and other create an understandable order. Custom names and sorting adapt the assortment to the property’s actual standard.

Which units does minibar support?+

Bottle, can, piece, pack or portion make quantity and price clear. A quantity of two therefore means the same thing to housekeeping and front desk.

What is default quantity used for?+

It describes the desired standard stock per room. The property defines the target stock that the team restores during minibar checks.

Can items be deactivated temporarily?+

Yes. An inactive item remains in the maintained catalogue but is unavailable for new consumption records. This prevents discontinued products from being used further.

How is minibar consumption recorded?+

Consumption is assigned to a real booking, one of its rooms, an active item and a positive quantity. A note and recording person complete the process.

Does STRYK check that booking and room belong together?+

Yes. The room must actually belong to the booking in the same property. Consumption cannot accidentally be posted to another room or property.

Which price is stored with consumption?+

STRYK takes the current item price as unit price and calculates quantity times price. Name, unit price and total remain traceable on the consumption record.

Is there a consumption history per stay?+

Yes. Recorded items are shown by time with item, quantity, price, recording person, billing state and note on the booking.

Does minibar consumption automatically become an invoice item?+

Yes. Chargeable consumption is posted automatically to the stay as an open item when it is recorded. At check-out, STRYK carries it onto the invoice together with the other open items.

What is a sellable extra?+

An additional service such as breakfast, late check-out, parking or a pet package is maintained as its own offer with name, description, price, quantity logic, image and active state.

Which pricing models are available for extras?+

STRYK can price per booking, night, guest or guest and night. The choice determines how quantity, stay length and guest count affect the total.

Can the property set a maximum quantity?+

Yes. A maximum quantity can limit parking spaces, pet packages or breakfast options. STRYK revalidates the selected quantity before storing it on the stay.

Can extras be described in multiple languages?+

Yes. Name and description are maintained for the property’s public languages so guests genuinely understand the offer before selecting it.

Can extras have an image?+

Yes. A dedicated service image makes breakfast, parking or an add-on package clearer in Booking Engine. The image is maintained centrally on the product.

Which extras does a guest see in Booking Engine?+

Only active, explicitly approved products included in the published snapshot appear on the booking page. New or unfinished extras remain hidden from guests.

How is the extra price checked in direct booking?+

STRYK rechecks the product, approval, quantity, currency and pricing model immediately before booking. Only the currently valid price is charged.

Do selected extras remain on the booking?+

Yes. Product, name, pricing model, quantity, unit price, total and currency are stored as a booking item and included in the price breakdown.

Can front desk add extras at check-in?+

Yes. Front desk selects active products directly during check-in. Only the valid services actually selected increase the booking value.

Who may manage minibar and extras?+

Housekeeping write permission allows operational consumption recording. Item catalogues, upsells and settings require broader management permission.

What happens when details do not match?+

STRYK flags the wrong room, an inactive item, an invalid quantity or an extra that is not approved. The charge is added only when booking, product, quantity and price match.

What happens when details do not match?+

STRYK flags the wrong room, an inactive item, an invalid quantity or an extra that is not approved. The charge is added only when booking, product, quantity and price match.
