Built by Hoteliers.
Built for Hotels.
Innstrata began with a single mission: fix a problem hotels were quietly facing every day.
After 30+ years in the hospitality industry
we saw it clearly, hotels had no real way to track and manage high-risk guests across properties. Existing ID scanning solutions weren’t built for hospitality. When incidents happened chargebacks, damages, crime, even human trafficking, hoteliers were left without structured protection.
So we built Guest Ban.
A smarter ID scanning platform designed specifically for hotels.
Guest Ban was recognized as:
Best Hospitality ID Scanning Solutions Provier for numerous years.

The Beginning

Guest Ban
Guest Ban was created to give hotels real operational control at the front desk:
✔ Instant, error-free ID scanning to speed up check-in
✔ Secure capture and storage of guest ID images
✔ Real-time alerts on flagged or high-risk guests
✔ Shared DNR capabilities across multiple properties
✔ Seamless PMS integration for streamlined workflows
It wasn’t just another scanner it was a risk management system built for hospitality.
From Guest Ban to Innstrata
As we worked with more properties, one thing became clear:
The ID scan was only the beginning.
Hotels needed:
- Structured chargeback protection
- Competitive rate intelligence
- Direct booking growth tools
- Portfolio-wide visibility for management groups
- Standardized compliance across locations
So we expanded.
