For hotels, lodges and guest houses · Saudi Arabia
Stop losing bookings to unanswered messages.Answer every guest from one inbox.EliteTeQ Inbox for hotels, lodges, guest houses and serviced apartments in Saudi Arabia
A guest asks about a room for the weekend at 11pm. Reception is checking someone in, the night shift doesn’t have the sales phone, and by morning the guest has booked elsewhere.
EliteTeQ Inbox lets reception, reservations, events and the restaurant answer guests from one shared inbox. Every booking enquiry has an owner, waiting guests rise to the top, and conference or wedding enquiries are tracked to a deposit. Staff in Riyadh and Jeddah or anywhere else answer from one +966 business number, with office hours on Riyadh time (AST).

Saudi customers message businesses on WhatsApp to ask, book and order. EliteTeQ Inbox lets a team in Riyadh or Jeddah share one number and see who is handling each customer.

The working week in Saudi Arabia runs Sunday to Thursday, and office hours are set day by day, so Friday can be closed and Saturday short or closed. Customers who write on the weekend get your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and their chats wait at the top of the list for Sunday morning.
Selling on WhatsApp in Saudi Arabia
Customers in Saudi Arabia pay with mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay, and cards, so when a sale closes on WhatsApp the customer may confirm payment in the chat, and your team needs to see that message quickly.
Al Madinah Province · one of Saudi Arabia's holy cities and a major pilgrimage destination
Medina receives large numbers of pilgrims and visitors year-round, with sharp peaks in the Hajj and Ramadan seasons, so hotels, restaurants and retail near the centre see strong seasonal swings. mada cards and wallets are the norm, and ZATCA's e-invoicing (Fatoora) rules apply to taxable businesses. Pilgrim and visitor numbers rise sharply in the Hajj and Ramadan seasons. Booking requests from Medina reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
Riyadh Province · Saudi Arabia's capital and largest commercial centre
Card and digital wallet payment dominate, and mall-based multi-outlet retail is the norm. Booking requests from Riyadh reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
Makkah Province · a major port city and gateway for pilgrimage travel
Jeddah combines the country's main Red Sea port with its role as the arrival point for pilgrimage travel, which produces intense, calendar-driven demand peaks quite unlike a normal retail year. ZATCA e-invoicing with Arabic content and QR codes applies as nationally. The Red Sea port and pilgrimage arrivals produce calendar-driven surges unlike any ordinary retail year, concentrated into defined periods. Booking requests from Jeddah reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
