For hotels, lodges and guest houses · Senegal
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 Dakar and Thiès or anywhere else answer from one +221 business number, with office hours on Dakar time (GMT).

EliteTeQ Inbox works for hotels, lodges, guest houses and serviced apartments in Senegal on your existing +221 WhatsApp Business number. Customers see your business name as they do today, and your team answers from Dakar and Thiès or anywhere else.
In Senegal, customers often message a business before visiting a shop in Dakar or ordering for delivery. EliteTeQ Inbox lets a whole team answer from one business number.
Customers in Senegal write in French and Wolof. Your team replies the way they write, and template messages can be created in French.
Office hours are set day by day for each number. A common setup in Dakar: weekdays open, Saturday mornings open, Sunday closed. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and the chat waits at the top of the list for the morning.
Customers in Senegal pay with Wave, Orange Money and Free Money wallets, cards, and cash, so when a sale closes on WhatsApp the customer may confirm payment in the chat, and your team needs to see that message quickly.
Kaolack Region · a major trading city in central Senegal
Kaolack is a long-established trading city in Senegal's groundnut basin, with one of the country's largest markets. Wave and Orange Money are everyday payment methods, and taxes are administered by the DGID. A large market draws traders from across the region. Booking requests from Kaolack reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
Dakar Region · Senegal's capital and principal port
Dakar is the commercial and logistics centre of the Senegambian coast, with trade ranging from the dense central markets to the higher-basket retail and restaurant districts of Almadies and Les Almadies. The central markets, the Plateau business district and the Almadies restaurant strip each pull different customers, and the peninsula's traffic separates them further. Wallet payments dominate small baskets. Booking requests from Dakar reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
Thiès Region · Senegal's second city and a road and rail junction
Thiès sits on the main routes inland from Dakar and functions as a distribution and light-manufacturing centre, so a meaningful share of local trade is wholesale to smaller towns. Bulk pricing tiers and supplier tracking matter more than promotional features, and demand is steadier through the year than in the coastal tourism towns. The town sits on the inland routes from Dakar and functions as a distribution point, so bulk selling to smaller towns sits alongside ordinary retail. Booking requests from Thiès reach whoever is on shift, with an away message when you are closed.
