Understanding my GDS invoice
To understand the charges on your GDS invoice and the process
Monthly reservation check
On the 1st day of each month, you will receive a reservation overview from Reconline. This overview contains all GDS reservations that checked out in the previous month.
It is important to review and validate this overview before the 8th of the month, as the final GDS invoice will be generated after this date.
More information on how to perform this check can be found here:

Corrections after the 8th
If you discover an incorrect reservation after the 8th of the month, please contact us at support@smarthotel.nl.
We can request a credit invoice on your behalf. Please note that this is subject to your approval of handling costs (€35.00 per request).
