Weβve added a simple new feature to help you get paid faster πΈ
Now you can show your QR payment image directly on unpaid invoices.

Go to your settings here: Payment Settings
Upload your QR payment image
Done π
Your QR code will automatically appear on unpaid invoices, so customers can easily scan and pay.

After a customer makes payment, youβll still need to manually verify the payment and update the invoice status in the system for now.
Weβre actively working on improving this experience so future updates can support automatic QR payment verification.

Your boarding dashboard now has two new tools to help you stay on top of what's coming.
Reservation list A clean, scannable list of all your boarding reservations β who's checking in, who's checking out, and what's currently staying. No more digging through individual bookings to know what your day looks like.

7-day occupancy graph A simple visual overview showing check-ins, check-outs, and active stays for the next 7 days. Spot your busy periods at a glance and plan your capacity accordingly.

Why it matters: Running a boarding operation without visibility is guesswork. These two additions give you the at-a-glance picture you need β from today's arrivals to the week ahead β so you can staff up, prepare kennels, and avoid overbooking before it becomes a problem.
Both features are live in your boarding dashboard now. No setup needed.
April 21st, 2026
Pet parents can now select add-ons and grooming services directly on your booking page β before they even arrive.

If you're subscribed to the Grooming module, grooming services will automatically appear as options during the booking flow. Add-ons you've configured in your dashboard show up the same way.
Why this matters for your revenue: Most boarding businesses leave upsell money on the table because it happens (or doesn't) at drop-off. By surfacing these options at booking time, pet parents have the headspace to choose β and you collect the revenue upfront.
What pet parents see:
Available add-ons during their stay (e.g. extra walks, playtime, treats)
Grooming services if your business subscribes to the Grooming module
Clean, simple selection before confirming their booking
How to set it up: Your add-ons and grooming services are pulled automatically from what you've configured. Go to your Dashboard β Settings β Booking Page to review what's visible to pet parents.
Already using boarding? This is live β no setup needed. Just make sure your add-ons and grooming services are configured and you're good to go.

Your pet care booking page now accepts online payments via Stripe. Collect a 50% deposit at booking or require 100% full payment upfront β your choice.
How to set it up: Go to Dashboard β Settings β Booking Page, connect your Stripe account, and select your preferred payment collection method.

What's supported:
Cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and more via Stripe
Available payment methods vary by country β see Stripe's full list
All transactions processed securely through your own Stripe account
Already using GoPet AI? Head to your Booking Page settings to get started β no changes unless you want to enable payments.

Duplicate customer profiles are now a thing of the past. GoPet AI can detect and merge duplicate pet parent records in your CRM β so your customer data stays clean without manual cleanup.

What's new:
Automatic duplicate detection β When you open a customer profile, GoPet AI checks if another record exists with the same email or phone number and alerts you right away
Smart merge, not just delete β The merge consolidates everything: pets, invoices, boarding bookings, grooming appointments, loyalty points, coupons, queue entries, and emergency contacts all move to the surviving record
Intelligent pet handling β Pets with the same name are merged (including their notes, medical records, and feeding schedules), while pets with different names are simply re-linked to the primary profile
You choose the primary record β A side-by-side comparison lets you pick which record survives before anything is changed
Nothing lost β Loyalty points are combined, not overwritten. All history follows the merged record
How it works:
Open any customer profile in the CRM. If a potential duplicate is detected, a warning banner appears at the top. Review the comparison, confirm which record to keep, and merge. The duplicate is removed and all data is consolidated instantly.


March 16th, 2026
You can now import your past boarding records directly into GoPet AI β no manual re-entry needed.
This is especially useful if you're migrating from another system, a spreadsheet, or paper records and want your full booking history and customer profiles in one place.

What's new:
Dynamic CSV template β Download a template pre-filled with your exact room names and add-on columns, so there's no guesswork on formatting
Auto-creates CRM profiles β Pet parent and pet profiles are created automatically from your CSV rows
Smart duplicate matching β Existing customers are matched by email or phone number, and existing pets by name under the same owner, so nothing gets duplicated
Historical bookings β Imported bookings are logged as checked-out records, keeping your history clean and accurate
Clear error reporting β Any rows that couldn't be imported are flagged with specific reasons, and you can download a report of failed rows to fix and re-import
Works on mobile β The import flow is fully responsive

How to use it:
Go to Boarding β Calendar, click Import Data, download the template, fill it in, and upload. That's it.
