StayLedger
For hospitality consultants

Every guest, every hotel, every shilling of commission.

StayLedger is the CRM and commission ledger for consultants who fill rooms for hotels and lodges. Keep each hotel's guest pipeline, send offers by email, SMS and WhatsApp, and bill commission that hotels confirm online.

14 days free, with every feature. No card needed.

How it works

From first enquiry to commission paid

Four steps you already do, in one place instead of five spreadsheets and a WhatsApp group.

01

Add your hotels

Record each hotel's commission agreement: a percentage, or a fixed amount per booking, in KES or USD.

02

Bring in your guests

Import guest lists from Excel, or let enquiry forms add new leads for you, with consent recorded.

03

Send offers and quotes

Reach each segment by email, SMS or WhatsApp. Guests accept quotes online and you record the booking.

04

Bill your commission

Each month StayLedger prepares an invoice per hotel. The hotel confirms every stay from a link, then pays.

Hotels and guests

A pipeline for every hotel you represent

Whether you work with three lodges or thirty, every hotel has its own contacts, offers, bookings and messages, and one page shows them all side by side.

  • Import guest lists from Excel or CSV, with duplicates found for you
  • Move guests from prospect to lead to sale
  • Log calls, notes and WhatsApp chats, and set follow-ups for your team
  • Find any guest, hotel or invoice with one search

Campaigns

Offers that show what they earned

Send a festive offer to past guests of five hotels in one go, then see which messages turned into bookings and how much commission they brought in.

  • Email, SMS and WhatsApp from the same screen
  • Opens, clicks and bookings for every campaign
  • Automatic welcome, pre-arrival, thank-you and come-back messages
  • Unsubscribes and withdrawn consent are respected everywhere

Commission invoices

Invoices hotels confirm, then pay

No more arguing over which guests actually stayed. Hotels tick off each stay from a link, or flag a no-show, before the invoice is due.

  • One invoice per hotel per month, built from checked-out stays
  • Your KRA PIN, VAT and eTIMS number on every invoice
  • Overdue reminders go out for you
  • See exactly what each hotel owes you today

Revenue and accounts

Know which hotels make you money

Commission, expenses and profit by month and by hotel, with next month's commission already forecast from confirmed bookings.

  • Charge expenses to a hotel, to operations or to general overheads
  • Bookings in USD converted at the rate you agreed
  • Track what you owe your sales agents
  • Profit and loss, and exports for your accountant

Pricing

One price per month. Every feature.

Questions

Before you start

How does the free trial work?

You get 14 days with every feature and no card. Add your hotels, import guests and send real campaigns. When the trial ends, choose a plan and carry on exactly where you left off.

What happens if I stop paying?

You get seven days' grace. After that your workspace becomes read-only: nothing is deleted, and you can still view and export everything. Renew at any time to make changes again.

Can my hotels see what I bill them?

Yes. Each invoice has a link where the hotel ticks off every stay or flags a no-show. You can also give a hotel's manager a free login to see all their invoices and payments.

Can I pay without a card?

Yes. Pay by M-Pesa through Paystack inside StayLedger, or pay us by bank transfer or M-Pesa directly and we'll send you a licence key to enter under Billing.

Can my sales agents use it?

Yes. Sales agents only see the hotels you assign them, never your commission rates, and they can see what they've earned. Accountants see the books but not your contact lists.

Is my data safe?

Each consultancy's data is kept separate from every other. Everything is backed up daily, two-step sign-in is available, and an activity log shows every important change. You can export your data whenever you like.

Bring all your hotels into one ledger.
