How does Thynk fetch rate prices from Mews for the Room Block Manager?
By Thynk· Published · Updated
For the Room Block Manager, Thynk fetches Mews rate prices via scheduled reads of rate schedules; active rates do not need Get Prices enabled for this path, so block pricing stays aligned with Mews without a separate step.
Full answer
Thynk keeps Mews rate prices available for group room blocks through scheduled reads of rate schedules, so sales teams can price blocks in the Room Block Manager without a separate Get Prices step on each rate.
How rate prices reach Thynk:
- Rate schedules: Thynk reads Mews rate schedules on a schedule and stores the prices against the matching rates in Salesforce.
- Room Block Manager: when building or updating a room block, teams use those schedule-driven prices; active rates do not need Get Prices enabled for this path.
- Scheduled read integrations: the connector refreshes prices through its normal scheduled read jobs, so the figures stay current for ongoing group and MICE quoting.
This approach suits hotels that run the Room Block Manager with Mews: pricing for blocked rooms stays tied to the rates already configured in the PMS, and sales managers can quote with confidence from within Thynk.
Because prices arrive through the same rate-schedule reads that keep Thynk and Mews aligned, properties avoid duplicate configuration on rates solely to pull prices into a block. Group desk and revenue teams see one consistent set of Mews rates wherever they build inventory in Thynk.
