You can set a primary phone number for your contacts, whether they are guests (listed in the Contacts section) or other recorded contacts (listed in the Phonebook section - Pro users only). When a contact has only one phone number, that number will be set as the primary number by default.
Important:
- If you enter a phone number with too many digits, the number will not be saved. This includes numbers imported to Guesty from the booking channel.
- There can only be one phone number for each of your vendors and owners.
