WiFi Email Capture for Vacation Rentals
Capture Every Occupant's Email
Your PMS only knows the person who booked. But vacation rentals host families, friend groups, and couples, each with their own email and their own potential to book direct next time. WiFi captive portal login captures every occupant's contact info automatically.
Every Occupant, Every Email
A typical vacation rental hosts 4-6 guests, but your PMS only captures one email: the booker. WiFi captive portal login changes that. Every adult who connects to property WiFi submits their real email and phone number through a branded splash page, multiplying your marketable contacts per booking.
- Capture real email and phone from every WiFi-connected guest
- Multiply marketable contacts 3-5x beyond PMS data alone
- Branded splash pages per property with your logo and messaging
- Works with OTA bookings where the booker email is masked
Automatic PMS Association
Every WiFi login is automatically matched to the active PMS reservation for that unit. Occupants are linked to the booking as associated contacts, giving you a complete picture of who actually stayed, not just who booked. This powers smarter segmentation and lifetime value tracking.
- Auto-match WiFi logins to active reservations by unit and date
- Link non-booker occupants to the original reservation record
- Enrich contact profiles with property, market, and stay data
- Build a true guest topology showing who travels together
Occupant-Specific Marketing Segments
Non-booker occupants are a unique audience: they experienced your property but never interacted with your brand directly. Segment them as travel companions, potential future bookers, or repeat occupants, then target each group with campaigns designed to convert them into direct bookers.
- Segment travel companions separately from primary bookers
- Identify repeat occupants who appear across multiple stays
- Target non-bookers with first-time direct booking incentives
- Trigger post-stay campaigns for every occupant, not just the booker

Frequently Asked Questions
How does WiFi email capture work for additional occupants?
Every person who connects to your property WiFi is prompted with a branded captive portal that collects their email and phone number. Since vacation rentals typically host groups, you capture contacts from every adult in the unit, not just the person who booked.
Are WiFi-captured contacts matched to PMS reservations?
Yes. SendSquared automatically associates WiFi logins with the active PMS reservation for that unit based on check-in dates and property assignment, linking every occupant to the original booking.
Can I market to occupants who did not make the reservation?
Absolutely. Non-booker occupants become their own marketable contacts with full segmentation, automation triggers, and campaign eligibility. They are some of your best prospects for future direct bookings.
How much does this grow my database?
Vacation rentals with an average of 4-6 guests per booking typically see a 3-5x increase in marketable contacts from WiFi capture compared to PMS-only data collection.
