Onboarding

Up and running in 5 minutes

This page walks you through setup step by step โ€“ from your first click to your first booking.

1

Create a free account

Go to app.stay-board.com and click "Register". All you need is an email address โ€“ no credit card, no contract period.

After registering you will receive a confirmation email. Click the link inside to activate your account.

Tip: The free Standard plan supports up to 2 rooms and can be used without any time limit.
2

Set up your hotel

On first login a setup wizard guides you through the basics: enter the name of your hotel (or guesthouse), your address and your preferred currency.

Afterwards you can add your logo, default language and invoice details under Settings โ†’ Hotel.

3

Add your first room

Open the Rooms section (bottom of the menu) and tap the + button. Give it a name (e.g. "Room 1" or "Double South"), choose a room type and enter the default rate.

For the booking calendar, name and rate are all you need โ€“ everything else is optional.

Tip: You can rename rooms or adjust rates at any time later.
4

Create your first booking

In the Booking calendar, tap and hold an empty cell โ€“ a form opens. Select check-in and check-out dates, enter the guest name and contact details, then save.

The booking immediately appears as a coloured block on the calendar. Tap the block to edit it, change its status (booked โ†’ checked in โ†’ checked out) or delete it.

5

Create and send an invoice

Open a booking and tap Create invoice. Stay-Board pre-fills the dates and price automatically. You can add extra line items (breakfast, parking, etc.).

The finished invoice can be downloaded as a PDF, previewed in the in-app viewer or sent directly to the guest by email.

Tip: Your logo and contact details appear automatically on the invoice once you have added them in the hotel settings.
6

Optional: activate modules

Once you are set up, you can extend the app with modules โ€“ for example housekeeping tasks, guest registration or connections to Booking.com and Airbnb.

Modules are activated under Settings โ†’ Modules. Each module can be added or cancelled on a monthly basis.
