Cloud-native, multi-tenant hospitality operating system covering PMS, POS, RMS, Payments, Booking Engine, and Marketplace
Connector API exposes 197 operations across ~30 resource groups (reservations, customers, companies, accounting, bills, rates, availability, services, products, enterprises, resources, cashiers, counters, exports, loyalty, devices, customer messaging, billing automations, vouchers, restrictions, resource access tokens)
JSON-over-HTTPS request/response model — every operation is a POST returning JSON; auth is `ClientToken` (partner) + `AccessToken` (property) + `Client` (user-agent string)
Production environment at `https://api.mews.com`, demo environment at `https://api.mews-demo.com` with free test credentials
Multi-property support via Portfolio Access Tokens and `ChainIds` filter — one API call can span an entire hotel chain
Webhooks delivered as API Events (push HTTP POST) for reservation, customer, bill, payment, and resource changes
Marketplace ecosystem with 1,000+ pre-built integrations and 20,000+ installations across Mews-powered properties
10M+ daily API messages in production
Booking Engine API for custom booking widgets — availability, pricing, products, promotions, payment-card authorization, reservation group creation
Distributor API (legacy/booking-widget surface) for hotel info, availability, vouchers, and reservation creation
Channel Manager API for two-way integration with OTAs, GDS, and metasearch — inventory and rate push, reservation pull
POS API for Point-of-Sale partners — outlets, items, orders, invoices, and bill posting
Loyalty Partner API (reverse webhook) — Mews calls the loyalty provider for member lookup, earn, redeem
Embedded Mews Payments — tokenization, automated reconciliation, multi-currency, terminal integration
SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS compliant
{"Open-source contributions"=>"Mews Flutter packages, Fiscalizations .NET library, gitbook-based open-api-docs"}
