Stayntouch and Namastay Announce Integration to Power Direct, High-Conversion and Mobile-First Bookings for Independent Hotels

Bethesda, MD | Aug. 26, 2026 | Stayntouch, a global leader in cloud hotel property management systems (PMS) and guest-centric technology, today announced a new integration partnership with Namastay, a conversion-optimized direct booking engine transforming hotel direct distribution. The integration connects Namastay's booking engine directly to the Stayntouch PMS, so reservations, rates and guest data flow between the two systems in real time, giving hotel teams a faster, fully synced path from booking to check-in.

The integration is aimed squarely at a problem every independent and boutique hotel brand shares: reducing dependence on OTA commissions by making the direct booking path as fast and frictionless as a third-party site, without adding back-office work. Guests can complete a mobile-optimized booking and payment natively on the hotel's own website, while front desk and reservations teams see the reservation land in Stayntouch instantly, without re-keying a single field. Namastay's checkout supports digital wallets, BNPL options and major credit cards, and is built to PCI DSS and GDPR standards.

The integration is already live at Zoku, the award-winning hybrid hospitality brand redefining the blend of living, working and socializing, with properties across Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Paris and Vienna, one of the first Stayntouch customers to bring Namastay's booking engine online.

The integration delivers:

• Real-time PMS sync. Reservations, rate changes, and guest profiles pass automatically between Namastay and Stayntouch, eliminating manual entry for front-desk and reservations teams.

• Mobile-first, frictionless checkout. A fast, mobile-optimized booking flow with digital wallet, BNPL options and card support, designed to reduce abandonment on the direct channel.

• Secure by design. Built to PCI DSS and GDPR standards, with no additional compliance burden placed on hotel teams.

• Proven in production. Already live at hotels including Zoku, alongside the 300+ properties in 42 countries that already run on Namastay.

“Direct bookings work best when the technology behind them is invisible to the guest and effortless for the hotel,” said Frédéric Robles, Co-Founder & CEO, Namastay. “Our integration with Stayntouch removes operational complexity, allowing  hotel teams to focus on their guests instead of their systems, and that’s exactly the experience we want every hotel on Namastay to have.”

“Namastay's approach to direct booking is a natural fit for the independent and boutique hotels we serve every day,” said Reid Webster, VP of Partnerships & Strategic Growth at Stayntouch. “This integration gives our mutual customers a guest experience that feels effortless, and a back office that stays completely in sync. We're glad to bring Namastay into the Stayntouch partner ecosystem.”
