HotelKey Partners with PositiveSine to Simplify Integrations with Hotels’ Local Systems


A significant edge over other PMS systems, the PositiveSine partnership enables the HotelKey platform to integrate fully with local legacy property systems

HotelKey, the leading cloud-based hotel property management system for hotels, is partnering with engineering solutions innovator PositiveSine to simplify integrations with hotels’ local systems, enabling properties to create better, smoother guest experiences, drive efficiency and stay ahead of the competition.

HotelKey provides cloud-based functionality-rich software to manage end-to-end property operations, reservations and payments. A significant edge over other PMS systems, the PositiveSine partnership enables the HotelKey platform to integrate fully with local legacy property systems– such as entry locks, payment terminals, PBX and more– using IoT, an edge gateway and AWS IoT Core to enable a full end-to-end property experience for guests.

“We are pleased to partner with PositiveSine,” said HotelKey co-founder and CEO Fareed Ahmad. “Hotels have long sought the ability to seamlessly integrate all the pieces of their tech stack to communicate with each other – thereby driving property efficiencies, cost savings and performance. Our collaboration makes this possible, thanks to PositiveSine’s comprehensive hardware engineering solutions. We are excited to build this partnership even deeper, with our hotel clients as the main beneficiaries.“

PositiveSine Founder Zach Ryan noted, “Hospitality faces huge challenges, with the increasing challenges and rising costs of overhead in the COVID era compounding the limitations of legacy technology that is increasingly inadequate to meet the quickly evolving operational needs of hoteliers. We are delighted to partner with HotelKey, which is, quite simply, doing things no one else can–innovating to help hoteliers access a fully unified technology stack that meets all their needs via one end-to-end platform.”

PositiveSine CEO Cher Henton agreed. “We are proud to bring PositiveSine’s unique approach and solution set to this collaboration with HotelKey,” she said. “The HotelKey platform provides rich functionality for both individual properties and hotel chains, driving a consistent experience for guests and a configurable system for hotel owners and enterprise teams–automating most of property operations while also allowing room for flexibility and user innovation. PositiveSine is proud to provide configurable elements that drive the platform forward–providing guests a more personalized experience than ever before, and providing hotel owners with automation to drive costs down and increase revenue.”
