== Credit Card Details from Channels ==
Some channels send credit card details to Beds24. If they do we make them available to you. If the channel did not send credit card details for one booking or all bookings contact the channels support team and ask them to only accept bookings with credit card details and always send these to Beds24.
==Request Guests to Submit Credit Card Details==
You can set up an Auto Action with a request to submit credit card details. Guests will be able to submit their card details on a secure form.
To use this option you need to
*activate credit card collection in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS->) PAYMENTS->PAYMENT GATEWAYS-> CREDIT CARD*set which credit cards you accept {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS->) PAYMENTS-> CREDIT CARD COLLECTION  *Go to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS->) GUEST MANAGEMENT->AUTO ACTIONS and create an Auto Action. Use the context help (?Icons) and the help page (click on HELP in the top right menu) for general instructions.
Template variables are used to link to the form.
You can also use a direct link. The link uses the booking number plus the parameter &g=cc

https://www.beds24.com/bookpay.php?bookid=[BOOKID]&g=cc
== Access Credit Card Details ==

3) Credit card details can only be viewed if the password has been changed in the last 90 days. To change the password to to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS->) ACCOUNT->ACCOUNT ACCESS.
