How To: White Label Your Messaging & Guest Portal
Introduction
White Label is an add-on that lets you add your company logo and brand colors to all outgoing emails as well as the Guest Portal. When guests see this communication, it feels like it is your company's app — if they click on your logo, it will take them to your website. It is your brand interacting with the guests. Guest Portal configuration is managed from a dedicated Guest Portal section on the left-hand menu of the Lynx portal, which centralizes all white-label portal setups in one place.

Prerequisites: You'll need Admin or Agent-level access to the Lynx portal, and at least one property or group already added to your account, before configuring White Label settings.
When to use this Guide
- Filtering and viewing all active or inactive Guest Portal configurations by specific properties to verify setup accuracy.
- Managing multiple white-label portal designs for different groups from a single, centralized dashboard.
- Expanding a configuration to manually copy the Guest Portal static link for integration with a connected Property Management System (PMS).
Benefits of using this Guide
- Frictionless User/Guest Experience: Guests receive a seamless, correctly branded experience because property managers can now easily verify at a glance that the proper white-label configurations are actively applied to the right properties.
- Operational Efficiency for Staff/Admins: Property staff save significant administrative time by no longer having to search through individual group menus to locate portal settings. The centralized view and intuitive property-based filtering drastically reduce daily clicks and make troubleshooting misconfigured portals much faster.
Limitations: The PMS static link is no longer automatically displayed up front — you must manually copy it from the expanded configuration section. When creating a new Guest Portal configuration, you can currently select only one group at a time. Multi-group selection is planned for a future update. Navigation Change: Guest Portal configuration has moved out of the Groups tab. If you're used to finding it there, look for the new Guest Portal section on the left-hand menu instead.
