me&u integration
me&u connects to Now Book It so your guest and booking data flows straight from your diary into me&u Connect, ready to use for guest engagement and marketing. This guide covers how to set up the integration, what data syncs, and how support works.
What the integration does
- Guest and reservation data from Now Book It syncs into me&u Connect automatically, with a sync running every 30 minutes to pull in the latest information.
- Only opted-in contacts are synced. Guests who haven't opted in with your venue won't appear in Connect.
- Contacts are matched using mobile number. As long as a guest's mobile number stays the same, their record will keep updating with each new booking.
- This integration is free to set up.
Setting up the integration
- In me&u Connect, go to App > Install New App.
- Search for Now Book It and select it.
- Enter your Client ID and Client Secret into the app.
- Select all permissions.
- Select Save.
If you don't have your Client ID and Client Secret, contact our support team at help@nowbookit.com and we'll help you get connected.
