PKFARE Email Configuration#

There will be email notifications sent out to inform you of the change in order status, schedule changes, check-in information, etc. Most of the email notifications are sent by the system automatically and generally, the email contacts in the booking will be the recipients. We also support the configuration of specific mailboxes as the recipients in some scenarios.

1) Email Interaction Summary#

Email Interaction Scenario#

Please kindly find the "PKFARE GBP Email Interaction Summary" spreadsheet below for your reference. The configuration-available scenarios are highlighted in green.

Mail Notification Recipients#

For non-configurable scenarios:
The email used when the original booking is generated via API will be the recipient. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, we strongly recommend you not transfer the passenger's personal email to the original booking through API.
However, when you submit an after-sales order on the PKFARE portal platform, you can change the email information in the order. The system supports entering multiple emails separated by semicolons.

For configurable scenarios:
You can configure different email addresses as recipients for different scenarios.
Except for the "Online Check-In Notification" scenario, you can configure multiple email addresses for each scenario. This flexibility ensures that different GBP within your network receives relevant information based on specific situations.
The system supports sending email notifications to both configuration mailboxes and in-booking mailboxes.
