Onity DirectKey™ mobile key solution - Move ahead of the crowd

With technology preferences rapidly changing and expectations running high, it is essential to create a favorable guest experience. Today, hotels must connect with guests in entirely new ways, empowering them to take control of their stay and how they interact with your hotel and staff.

DirectKey, is Onity’s cost-effective, secure and easy-to-use solution which allows guests to use their smartphone as their room key. Combining Bluetooth® and cloud technologies, DirectKey can enhance guest experience for hotels of any size.  Through integration with a hotel property management system (PMS) and OnPortal, properties can implement DirectKey to enable contactless check-in and property access so hotel guests can bypass reception and go directly to their room. 

Onity´s DirectKey system is built on a proven key credentialing platform that has been deployed across an installed base of 4 million Bluetooth locking devices in multiple industries. It is a great option for properties that are preserving social distancing guidelines and seeking to enhance contactless access.
