You can now connect Hostme to Star Micronics printers to print guest and reservation details, chits for staff, and order receipts directly from Hostme.


This integration helps streamline your daily operations by bringing key guest and order information straight to the printer — no manual copying, writing or switching between screens.


What You Can Print

By default, Hostme supports three types of preset printable slips:

Guestbook Card

Contains all details from the guest’s profile, including:

  • Name, phone number, and email

  • Guest tags and notes

  • Allergies and table preference

  • Birth date and anniversary; other important dates and events

  • Guestbook join date

  • Company name, office address, and phone

  • Delivery address and instructions (if applicable)

In addition, we can add:

  • Number of guest's visits, cancellations, no-shows

  • Number of average bill


Reservation Card

Displays all essential guest details, but also:

  • Reservation type (Reservation, Walk-in, Waitlist or Event)

  • Reservation status (Approved, Called, Cancelled, Closed)

  • Group size and seating area

  • Any reservation-specific notes or details added by the guest or host

  • Source of reservation (Online widget, Google, Meta, in-house, etc)


Order Receipt

Displays essential customer details, including:

  • Order status (Confirmed, Cancelled, Changed)

  • Order type (Delivery or Pickup)

  • Special requests and allergies

  • Additional customer requests (Contactless Delivery, Don’t Disturb) Need Card Reader, etc)

  • Ordered items and quantity

  • Subtotal and delivery fees

  • Taxes and total amount


Customizing the print layout

Our team can fully customize the design and layout of printed slips to match your workflow and branding.

You can choose what information appears on each printout and how it’s displayed.

It’s also possible to include a QR code on the chit or receipt. Scanning the code can open:

  • The guest’s profile

  • The reservation details

  • The order or preorder entry


Custom printing triggers

In addition to the default slips and their customization, we can also create custom triggers that would allow you to print anything you need from Hostme. These can include:

  • New online reservation

  • New "Seat a table" activity

  • New online order for the kitchen


Benefits of Star Micronics integration

  • Quick and reliable printing directly from Hostme

  • Instant access to guest and order information

  • Fully customizable print templates

  • Custom printing triggers

  • Optional QR codes for faster access to information in Hostme


Installation and integration

To implement this feature and functionality, Hostme customers need to have a Star Micronics printer connected to the device intended for reservation management with Hostme.

To proceed with integration, go to Admin panel -> Marketplace and press Connect next to the Star Micronics printer app.

Feel free to reach out to support@hostmeapp.com or directly to our customer support messenger if you run into any issues with integration.

During the promo period, the setup and customization are free of charge for all Hostme customers.
