- Master Folio: A concise summary of the guest’s total charges and payments, offering a clear overview of their financial transactions in one place.
EXAMPLE: A guest checks into a hotel for a five-night stay. At checkout, they receive a Master Folio that summarizes their total charges, including the room rate, taxes, and any additional services. The folio shows a total payment of $1,200, which includes the room cost and taxes. This summary simplifies the checkout process.
The Detailed Folio provides a comprehensive breakdown of all charges and payments for an individual booking daily with and without taxes.
EXAMPLE: A guest books a hotel room for two nights. At checkout, they receive a Detailed Folio showing the room rate, charges for services, and applicable taxes. The folio clearly outlines the total cost of the stay, enabling the guest to review each charge before finalizing payment.
The Itemized Folio breaks down individual charges related to a specific booking, categorizing expenses and showing prices for each item or service.
EXAMPLE: A guest stays at a resort for 3 days, and incurs charges for parking and spa treatments. Upon checkout, they can choose to receive an Itemized Folio detailing all expenses.
This comprehensive view helps the guest easily understand their total expenses, ensuring transparency and clarity regarding the final bill.
