How do I set up an automated email?

17 steps Updated

Do you send every guest the same information about arrival, directions or departure? With an automated e-mail you write that text once. Voyando then sends it for every booking at the moment you choose, with the guest's name and the right dates already filled in. Read more about automated e-mails for your guests.
