Summary

This release fixes two issues with GET /properties/{id}/discounts where the endpoint was returning duplicate discount records and discount records that are no longer active in the system. The endpoint now returns only valid, configured discounts for the property.

Fixes & Improvements

Property Discounts — Duplicate and Removed Records Returned

GET /properties/{id}/discounts had two issues that caused it to return incorrect records:

• Duplicate records — the same discount could appear multiple times in the response.
• Removed records — discounts that are no longer active in the system were still being included in the response.

The endpoint now returns only valid discounts configured against the property, with each discount appearing once. Note that expired discounts continue to be returned, as these remain valid configured discount records until explicitly removed or deactivated.

• Endpoint affected: GET /properties/{id}/discounts 

Notes

• This release is now available in Beta & Live
• Release Date: 15 July 2026 (AEST)
• Partners can begin using these changes in production immediately
• Please report any issues through standard support channels: https://rmsapi.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/requests

Summary

Summary

This Beta release adds new fields to reservation requirement responses, a new endpoint for uploading guest images, and a new set of endpoints for managing Requirement Category Access. It also includes a fix for a 503 error returned by POST /reservations/search when filtering by guest surname. 

New Features

Reservation Requirements — chargeRequiredDaily and chargeDailyIncludeToDate Fields

Two new boolean fields have been added to reservation-level requirement responses. chargeRequiredDaily indicates whether a requirement is charged on a per-day basis; chargeDailyIncludeToDate controls whether the departure date is included in that daily charge calculation. These fields allow integrators to accurately calculate requirement fees without relying on additional lookups or UI-side logic.

Endpoints affected:

• GET /reservations/{id}/requirements — Returns requirements for a reservation, now including chargeRequiredDaily and chargeDailyIncludeToDate
• GET /reservations/requirements — Search reservation requirements, now including chargeRequiredDaily and chargeDailyIncludeToDate

Guest Image Upload — New Endpoint

Integrators can now upload an image (such as a passport or ID document scan) directly to a guest profile via the REST API. Previously this was only possible through the RMS UI.

New endpoint:

• PUT /guests/{id}/image — Upload an image to a guest profile

Requirement Category Access — New Endpoints

A new set of endpoints enables integrators to manage Category Access on master Requirements. Category Access controls which property categories a Requirement appears in, using an allow-list model. This gives integrators programmatic control over Requirement visibility across a multi-category property setup, without requiring manual configuration in the RMS UI.

New endpoints:

• GET /requirements/master/{id}/categoryAccess — Retrieve the category access list for a master Requirement
• POST /requirements/master/{id}/categoryAccess — Add categories to the access list for a master Requirement
• PUT /requirements/master/{id}/categoryAccess — Replace the category access list for a master Requirement
• DELETE /requirements/master/{id}/categoryAccess — Remove categories from the access list for a master Requirement

Fixes 

Reservation Search — 503 Error When Filtering by Guest Surname

POST /reservations/search was returning a 503 Service Unavailable error when the request included a guestSurname filter. The endpoint now returns a valid result set, or an empty array when no matches are found.

We're at the halfway point of the year, and your RMS environment has been busy. This quarter's update brings payment automation to RMS, real performance data from Apple Pay in the wild, a visual booking upgrade that's rolling out now, and a new community platform built for operators like you.

Here's what's new 👇

Payments that run without you

Advanced Payment Schedules

The chase is over. Advanced Payment Schedules are now generally available — set your deposit, instalment, and balance rules once, and RMS collects automatically, on schedule, without follow-up. Works across all property types and stay lengths, and connects directly with RMS Pay so every collection happens without a manual trigger. 

🔗 Learn more.

Automated Payments Dashboard

Every transaction across your property, in real time. The Automated Payments Dashboard gives you a single view of what's paid, what's pending, and what needs attention — covering credit card, direct debit, and SMS payment links. No more running reports to find out where you stand. 

🔗 Learn more.

Apple Pay with RMS Pay — what we're seeing

Apple Pay has been live with RMS Pay since Q1, and the numbers are worth talking about. Tokenisation means the card number is never shared with your property, which cuts online fraud by around 30%. Approval rates are up — Visa reports up to 4.6% more online transactions going through on average. Our RMS Pay users who have enabled Apple Pay are seeing authorization rates of over 96%. And properties enabling Apple Pay are seeing around 18% more bookings completed at checkout, simply by removing the friction of card entry.

The other thing worth knowing: when a guest's card is lost, reissued or expires, their Apple Pay token updates automatically. No failed renewals. No chasing guests for new card details. It just keeps working. 

A better way to book, visually

Interactive Maps — now rolling out

Guests can now pinch, zoom, and click their way to the perfect spot. Interactive Maps are rolling out across the RMS Booking Engine, letting guests browse your property visually — sites, amenities, availability — and book directly from the map. If you already have a map, it'll be updated automatically. If you don't have one yet, reach out and we'll get you set up.

From the field: Sadie AI in the wild

Beachport Caravan Park — first 30 days

Beachport Caravan Park switched to RMS from Newbook and added Sadie AI in their first month. Here's what happened.

Sadie handled 684 calls. 376 of them — 55% — were resolved entirely without staff involvement. 42 bookings were captured, worth $9,720 in revenue. 122 rates and availability enquiries were tracked for retargeting, and 49 offers sent on behalf of the property, representing $11,346 in potential booking value.

One month. One integration. A materially different operation.

Sadie AI is available now as an RMS Partner integration — and for a limited time, new RMS customers can try Sadie free for one month.

Payment schedules are now managed exclusively at the individual reservation (child) level within group bookings. The system no longer creates or applies payment schedules at the master reservation level, providing a clearer and more predictable experience when working with grouped reservations.

Summary

This Live release delivers two fixes to reservation tariff handling. Properties using Nightly Rate accounting will now see correct per-night tariff records from API-created reservations, and pencil reservations will correctly recalculate tariffs when the rate type is updated more than once.

Included in this Live release:

• Reservations — Nightly Rate accounting — API-created reservations now generate per-night tariff records when the property is configured for Nightly Rate accounting. 
• Reservations — Pencil reservation tariff recalculation — Tariff values now recalculate correctly on every rate type change, not just the first assignment.

👉 Beta details: https://releasenotes.rmscloud.com/rest-api-v10.26.167.3----beta-20B5m0?psig=Mpx7z7vJgO61MKzP9abenS5geFulmT0aAI2Nubz

Summary

This Beta release delivers two fixes to reservation tariff behavior. Reservations created via the API now correctly inherit the property-level Nightly Rate accounting configuration, and rate type changes on pencil reservations now trigger a full tariff recalculation in all cases. 

Fixes & Improvements

Reservations — Nightly Rate accounting now applied correctly on creation

When a property was configured to use Nightly Rate from their accounting configuration, reservations created through the API were incorrectly generating a single total tariff for the entire stay rather than individual nightly tariffs. The API now correctly inherits the property-level accounting configuration.

Affected endpoint: POST /reservations

Reservations — Tariff recalculation on pencil reservation rate type change

When updating a pencil reservation's rateTypeId via PATCH /reservations/{id}, the tariff was only recalculated the first time a rate was assigned. If the rate was subsequently changed to a different rate type, the baseRate and totalRate values in actualAccount retained the original rate's amounts instead of reflecting the new rate. The recalculation logic now triggers whenever the rate type changes to a different value, covering both first-time assignment and subsequent rate changes.

Affected endpoint: PATCH /reservations/{id}

Notes

• Release Date: 23 June 2026 (AEST)  — Beta only

The IBE search results page now has three distinct sections instead of two.
Previously, a category was either available or unavailable. Now, a third section - "Available, but doesn't match your search" - appears between them. This highlights categories that have rooms or sites free for your dates, but can't be booked with the current search criteria.
Guests will see a clear explanation on each card, such as:

A minimum length of stay requirement they haven't met
A guest count that exceeds the category's capacity

This removes the guesswork for your guests and reduces abandoned bookings caused by unclear availability messaging. The change applies across both the rates view and map view.

Summary

This Live release delivers error handling and data accuracy improvements across the API, covering webhooks, transactions, discounts, and reports.

Included in this Live release:

• Webhooks — Fixed 500 error on PUT /webhooks/{id} for inactive or non-existent webhook IDs; endpoint now returns 404 Not Found.
• Transactions — Credit card fee values submitted via POST /transactions/receipt are now rounded to 2 decimal places, preventing account balance mismatches and refund processing errors.
• Reservations — POST /reservations/discounts/search now correctly returns discounts with validation rules applied, instead of returning 204 No Content.
• Reports — POST /reports/auditTrail no longer returns a 500 error when glCodeIds is passed as an empty array.

Summary

This Live release enforces a maximum record limit of 50,000 on key search endpoints. The change improves platform stability and ensures consistent behavior across high-volume query patterns. Requests exceeding the limit now return HTTP 400 Bad Request rather than being silently truncated.

Included in this Live release:

• Breaking Change: Maximum Query Limit — A cap of 50,000 records is now enforced on transaction, guest, and reservation search endpoints; requests exceeding this value return HTTP 400 Bad Request.
