NightsBridge Web App.

You can now save NightsBridge directly to your computer’s desktop or phone’s home screen when you install the system as a web app after logging in on your internet browser. You’ll get the full calendar experience without downloading anything from an app store.

Our web app brings every tool you rely on daily straight to your screen, sized for whichever device you pick up. You can change rates, process payments, or send invoices on the move.

Adding NightsBridge to your home screen or desktop takes a few quick taps. Once added, clicking the NightsBridge icon opens your calendar in its own clean window, saving you from scrolling through open browser tabs. Future system and feature updates will be instantly delivered where all you would need to do is refresh the page.

26 Aug 2026

Get more info with the booking preview.

Right clicking a booking on your desktop opens the booking preview that keeps your view locked on the exact reservation you selected. You get quick access more info such as guest contact details, payment insights, and expanded notes upfront without leaving your calendar view.

If you check your calendar on a phone, tap and hold on any booking to bring up the same preview and tap to call your guest directly.

Additionally you can click on the guest’s email address or phone number (available only on mobile) to write them an email or start a call.

13 Aug 2026

See your full month at a glance.

Get a bird’s-eye view of your bookings and availability, from any device, by switching your online calendar to show you a full-month view.

Bookings appear as simple circles; a fully shaded circle means you have no rooms left, while a half-shaded circle shows you still have space. If a day has no circle, you are completely open.

The view also displays upcoming public holidays or events you have added helping you remember and plan accordingly for those dates.

A clearer way to set up your team.

We’ve moved selecting a User Group to the top of the page to simplify adding staff. You can share contact details across users if your team works from a central inbox or office phone.

We’ve also provided clearer on-screen guidance that explains exactly what details you need before saving.

12 Jun 2026

Templates on your calendar.

You no longer need to go to your setup to update any of your templates, you can access them directly from your calendar under the Tools menu.

It has a fresh look that matches the rest of your calendar screens making your templates much quicker to find and manage without leaving the main page.

Everything still works exactly the same way. You can still access your templates through the Setup screen and any files you upload in either spot saves to the same place automatically.

5 Jun 2026

Less scrolling on your desktop booking screen.

We’ve redesigned the Add Booking screen on your desktop and laptop to give you a cleaner view. The room and meal plan selection sits in its own column on the right side of your screen.

This layout cuts down on scrolling when you add multiple rooms to a single booking. It’s also much easier to see if you have left a room unselected before saving, helping you avoid mistakes before you confirm a stay.

27 May 2026

Extra protection for your calendar and guest details.

Your NightsBridge calendar holds a lot of sensitive information, from guest contact details to payment records. Because online security threats are rising, keeping this data safe is our top priority.

One Time PINs (OTPs) add a vital layer of security, ensuring that only you and your trusted staff can access your calendar, even if someone else gets hold of your password.

When you log in, you’ll enter a quick code sent to your mobile number or email to verify your device. Once verified, your browser remains trusted for a short while, so you don’t have to do this every time. It’s a simple step that gives you and your guests complete peace of mind.

21 Apr 2026

A clearer view of your calendar on your phone.

You no longer need to zoom in-and-out and scroll around when managing your bookings on your phone. Your calendar now responds to the size of the screen you’re looking at. You can interchange between seeing 1 week or 2 weeks of the calendar or swipe sideways on the calendar to go to future dates. To save even more screen space, we hid the menu away and made room names collapsible. Simply tap a room to expand it, and tap the calendar to tuck it away.

9 Apr 2026

All your searches in one place.

Bookings, accounts, guest records, and transactions live under a single Search menu on your calendar. Instead of jumping between pages, click Search on the main menu to find any booking or payment instantly.

17 Mar 2026

No more spreadsheet warnings when you download reports.

Invoices, proformas, credit notes, and reports download directly in the modern xlsx format rather than the older xls version.

This cuts out those annoying spreadsheet compatibility alerts, letting you open and view your data immediately.

1 Mar 2026

Insights page update.

Insights Page update

We updated your Insights page so you see your property’s actual performance data the moment you open the dashboard. The date range now automatically displays the full current month, ensuring you can track your monthly performance in real time.

Instant occupancy averages
The Occupancy Percentage graph includes your total average occupancy for the selected period. You instantly know if you are on track to hit your targets or if you need to add a special to give your bookings an extra boost.

Same day payment reversals.

NightsBridge Pay and iVeri clients.

NightsBridge Pay and iVeri clients don’t pay card fees on full same-day reversals processed before 22h00. Whether it’s an immediate cancellation or a payment mistake, you can stop the payment from settling with these steps:

  1. Go to Booking & Payment > Transactions.
  2. Click the Reverse icon.
  3. Select Full Reversal and confirm.

The “Reversal Less Card Fee” option will no longer appear for these qualifying transactions.

Fees still apply for:
  • Partial reversals.
  • Full reversals after 22h00 or from the next day onwards.

Insights page.

We’ve added an Insights Page to your NightsBridge dashboard. It turns the booking data from your reports into clear visuals you can act on fast. You can quickly see how you are performing, in an easy-to-digest and graphically appealing way.

The Insights page helps you make smarter decisions, quicker. From planning campaigns to driving more direct bookings, knowing how your guests are booking and from where gives you more power to do better business online.

Include extras in your deposit.

NightsBridge Pay clients only.

Including selected extras in the deposit on your NightsBridge booking engine helps you collect more money upfront, chase fewer payments, and show guests exactly what they’ve paid for. It works well for those compulsory items, as well as food and drinks, and applies to your NightsBridge booking engine only – not to channels.
For best results, use extras you personally provide, take payment for, and can guarantee availability of, especially when they’re fixed or compulsory. That keeps the payment clear, reduces the risk of confusion or refunds later, and gives you smoother cash flow and simpler admin. For more guidance on which extras to include, click here.

15 Nov 2025

Booking & payment status page update: View masked card.

NightsBridge Pay non-3D secure transactions.

View a guest’s masked card number (first 6 and last 4 digits) directly in NightsBridge on the Booking and Payment Status page. This speeds up card checks at check-in, especially when the payment confirmation email isn’t easy to find.

It helps you confirm the card presented matches the one used for payment, and the first six digits (BIN) can also help flag anything unusual before check-in. Just remember, you still need to print the payment email and have the guest sign for non–3D Secure transactions.

05th Nov 2025

Room type amenities.

Room type amenities

We’ve refreshed the room type amenities list in NightsBridge, making it easier for you to describe and sell what sets your rooms apart.

Additional options include air-fryer, security system, swimming pool, kitchen supplies and towels. We also tightened up a few labels, like ‘2-plate stove’ (previously stove) and ‘Netflix’ under streaming services.  

18th Sep 2025

Add booking screen update.

NightsBridge calendar clients only.

We’ve made the ‘Add Booking’ screen mobile-friendly so you can capture manual bookings on the go.

You can resend a confirmation email from the Booking and Payment Status page and choose who receives it — you, your guest, or both. No more guessing whether the email landed.

30th Apr 2025

Cancel Booking.com booking for invalid credit cards.

We added a feature to help you quickly handle cases where guests haven’t updated their credit card details on Booking.com. After marking a card as invalid, the guest has 24 hours (or 4 hours if arrival is within 48 hours) to correct it, after which a “Cancel on Booking.com” button appears in NightsBridge.

This feature lets you avoid logging into Booking.com, prevent commission on unpaid bookings, and frees up rooms for paying guests. Simply mark the card as invalid, wait, then cancel directly through NightsBridge. Read more about how this helps to prevent fraud.

13th Mar 2025

Booking.com guest misconduct.

You are able to report guest misconduct to Booking.com directly from within NightsBridge. If a guest causes problems, like refusing to pay, damaging the property or breaking house rules then clients no longer need to leave NightsBridge, then log into Booking.com separately to report the guest.

24th Feb 2025

Booking details screen.

NightsBridge calendar clients only.

We updated the Booking Details screen to not only show you the most relevant information you would like to see first, but we’ve also made it mobile-friendly. You can send invoices and proformas, view and add extras, view and update booking notes, etc, all on your phone without having to zoom to see and do this.

This update only applies to the browser-based calendar, not the application downloaded from the Play Store or App Store, meaning you’ll see the changes when you log in at login.nightsbridge.com from your phone or desktop.

11th Feb 2025

Property and room type photo tags are interchangeable.

You can use the property- and room type photo tags interchangeably on the Image Uploader. This is especially useful to our self-catering clients that want more flexibility to choose the tags that best describe your unit.
