REST API v10.26.266.6 — Beta

Summary

This Beta release introduces a new endpoint for retrieving reservation repeat charge schedules, a way to brand RMSPay hosted payment pages with custom CSS, and several new fields across sundries, transactions, reservations, and booking sources. It also includes a fix for audit trail logging on API-created sundries. There are no breaking changes in this release.


New Features

RMSPay — Custom CSS Branding

You can now apply your own branding to the RMSPay hosted payment page by passing an optional cssCustomUrl field with a link to your own CSS file. This lets you style elements such as button and border colors to match your brand. Requests that omit the field continue to work exactly as before, with no change in behavior. RMS does not host, validate, or modify the CSS file — you're responsible for hosting it at a URL that's publicly accessible without authentication.

Endpoints affected:

  • POST /guests/{id}/rmsPayPayment — accepts the new cssCustomUrl field
  • POST /guests/{id}/rmsPayToken — accepts the new cssCustomUrl field
  • POST /guests/{id}/rmsPayToken/preAuth/{resId} — accepts the new cssCustomUrl field

Repeat Charges — New Endpoint & Sundry Field

You can now retrieve repeat charge schedules directly from the API instead of relying on a database mirror. The new endpoint returns each schedule's amount, frequency, linked sundry and account, start/cutoff dates, and related settings for up to 1,000 reservation IDs per call. Reservations with no repeat charge schedule simply won't appear in the results. Alongside this, sundries now expose whether repeat charges using that sundry post as a single combined transaction rather than one per occurrence.

New endpoints:

  • POST /reservations/repeatCharges/search — Retrieve repeat charge schedules for a list of reservation IDs

Endpoints affected:

  • GET /sundries — now returns postSingleTransactionForRepeatCharges
  • GET /sundries/{id} — now returns postSingleTransactionForRepeatCharges

Transactions — Virtual Card Identification

Receipt transactions now indicate whether the credit card token used for the receipt is flagged as a virtual card, regardless of whether the token came from an existing saved card or a new charge auto-tokenized by the payment gateway.

Endpoints affected:

  • POST /transactions/search — now returns isVirtualCard
  • GET /transactions/{id} — now returns isVirtualCard

Reservations — Rate Posted Indicator

The full reservation object now includes a boolean showing whether the accommodation rate has been posted for that reservation, so integrators can track rate postings ahead of guest arrival.

Endpoints affected:

  • POST /reservations/search — now returns rateCreated (when modelType: full)
  • GET /reservations/{id} — now returns rateCreated (when modelType: full)

Booking Sources — Grouping Link

Booking sources now return a grouping identifier, so you can tell which grouping a booking source belongs to without a separate lookup.

Endpoints affected:

  • GET /bookingSources — now returns groupingId

Fixes & Improvements

Sundries — Audit Trail Logging

Creating a sundry via the REST API did not previously write an audit trail entry, unlike creating the same sundry through the RMS9+ UI, leaving no record of who created API-originated sundries. Creating a sundry through this endpoint now records an audit trail entry consistent with UI-created sundries.

Endpoint affected:

  • POST /sundries — now writes an audit trail entry on creation

Multi-Location Waypoint Indicators for Split-Site Maps

We now have the ability to create a map with multi-location waypoints, to enable guests browsing a split-site property (multiple park areas under one listing) to see on-map indicators pointing to the other areas, making it clear these are separate locations they can jump between

Category Type Filtering & Colour-Coded Interactive Map

We've made two improvements to the booking engine that give guests a smoother, more intuitive search experience.

Simplified search results
Guests no longer need to select a category type before seeing results. All available options are now returned on the initial search, allowing guests to browse everything first and filter down using the new pill selectors at the top of the results page — choosing between accommodation or site based on what suits them.

For site bookings that require mandatory details, guests can complete these via the pill selector or will be prompted when they proceed to book — keeping the journey moving rather than creating a barrier upfront.

Colour-coded interactive map
The interactive map now uses distinct colours to differentiate category classification types, making it easy for guests to identify accommodation and site options at a glance.

Together, these changes reduce friction early in the booking journey and help move guests more confidently through to completion.

Docks and berths are back on the booking engine

Dock and berth categories are now visible and bookable through the booking engine again, shown alongside accommodation and sites. Where a property offers multiple category types online, guests get a dock/berth filter option consistent with how other category types display.

Browse and filter by category type, right on the results page

You can now browse all your available accommodation, sites, and docks straight from search, without picking a type first. Category and map pages let guests filter by type as they go, and RV guests are only asked for boat or vehicle dimensions at the point of booking, not before. Results are grouped clearly by type, with availability status shown up front. This is designed to cut drop-off earlier in the search and lift booking conversion.

New Booking Engine Now Supports More Legacy URL Parameters

IBE+ now correctly reads and applies the same booking URL parameters supported by the current IBE, including guest/pet counts, lead days and minimum length of stay, so existing deep links continue to work as expected.

Migrate to the new booking engine before your payment gateway is ready

If your property hasn't yet moved to a supported payment gateway on the new booking engine, that's no longer a reason to hold off migrating.

Guests can now complete checkout even without a gateway configured. Their card details are captured securely — not charged online — so you can process the payment manually later in RMS 9+, using your existing terminal or gateway.

This means you can migrate to the new booking engine now and start charging guests manually, rather than waiting for your gateway to be supported.

What to expect:

  • No card payment or deposit is taken online in this mode, even if deposits are configured
  • Card details are captured securely and passed through to RMS 9+
  • Charge guests manually via your onsite terminal or gateway when you're ready

Invoice To Feature

Available from: 22 July 2026

What's New

A new Invoice To field is now available on the Reservation Account screen, allowing you to specify the person or entity receiving services separately from the person or entity paying or receiving the invoice.

This is particularly useful for properties that need to issue invoices to a service recipient for GST/VAT claims, while billing a different party.

How It Works

  • Bill To — the person or entity paying or receiving the invoice (unchanged from current behaviour)
  • Invoice To — the person or entity receiving the services from the property

The Invoice To field:

  • Defaults to the same entity as Bill To (no action required if both are the same)
  • Can be changed independently to a different Guest, Company, or Travel Agent
  • Appears directly beneath the Bill To drop downs on the Reservation Account screen
  • Once set, it is retained even if Bill To is subsequently changed
  • Drives the recipient details shown on generated invoices (Tax Invoice, Statement, Grouped Tax Invoice, Receipt, Refund, and Print Transaction)

Example Scenarios

Bill To

Invoice To

Use Case

Company

Guest

Company pays, guest claims GST/VAT as service recipient

Travel Agent

Guest

Agent pays, guest receives the tax invoice

Guest

Company

Guest pays, company is the service recipient for tax purposes

What You Need to Know

  • No configuration is required — the field is available automatically on the Reservation Account screen
  • Existing reservations will default Invoice To to the current Bill To value
  • If you do not change Invoice To, your invoicing behaviour remains exactly as it is today
  • Generated invoices will reflect the Invoice To entity as the recipient

Who Benefits

Properties operating in regions with GST/VAT requirements where the payer and the legal service recipient may differ — ensuring compliant invoices can be issued to the correct party for tax claims.
