Web-based door access: the mobile standard
Guests open their room doors or shared areas with a simple swipe on their smartphone. No app download or login required – everything runs conveniently via Straiv’s web solution.
PIN access: individual codes per stay
Guests receive a personal PIN code via WhatsApp, SMS or email, or directly at check-in. This enables secure, keyless access and full independence around the clock.
Key card access: the classic option
Prefer to keep physical key cards? No problem. Straiv supports card encoding as well. Our recommendation: combine it with a self-service kiosk so guests can encode their own cards—without staff involvement.
