How do I know what time and date my guest will receive the reminder to make a second payment request?
Last updated August 24, 2026
The payment request date and status are shown on the reservation page.
Log in and open Menu > Reservations.
Open the guest's reservation and click Reservation Details.
Go to the Payments section and find the block headed Reminders.
There you will see:
Reminder date - the day the reminder goes out. This is the payment due date on the reservation.
Reminder time - shown as 6PM UTC/2PM ET onwards. This is when the daily reminder run begins and is the same for every reservation on Houfy; it is not a time set for yours, so allow a window rather than promising your guest an exact minute.
Reminder status - Not sent, Sent or Cancelled.
The reminder reaches the guest as both an email and a Houfy message.
The Reminders block appears only on reservations you host, and only once a reminder has been scheduled - if there is no balance due, there is nothing to show.
