Webhook

Callback-URL, die ein System bei einem Ereignis im anderen System aufruft.

Detaillierte Definition auf Englisch. Hospitality-Fachbegriffe (PMS, OTA, RevPAR, ADR) werden auch im deutschsprachigen Hotelbetrieb meist in der englischen Form verwendet.

A webhook is a callback mechanism: system A holds a URL provided by system B, and pings that URL when a specific event occurs (a new booking, a payment captured, a check-in completed). Webhooks enable real-time integration without polling, which is the foundation of low-latency PMS-to-guest-journey-platform sync. Vendors that only support polling APIs (no webhooks) introduce minutes of latency that compound into operational issues.
