Captive Portal for Paid Access
When you wish to sell vouchers for WiFi access through the captive portal, this solution provides a secure and efficient way to accept credit card payments using Stripe's tokenized payment platform.

The solution also offer a self-service portal for the users where they can manage access for their devices and keep their payment details up to date.
Captive Portal for Hotels
For Hotels and Motels, we offer an additional module that integrates our captive portal software with popular Property Management Systems (PMS).
This module allows you to automate guest authentication for WiFi access based on their last name and room number/name, as well as capture valuable visitor data that can be used for personalized marketing.

If you have unique requirements that are not met by our standard solutions, we can build a custom captive portal solution for you.
In most cases we use our mainstream solution as a starting point and then tailor it to your specific needs. This way, you get a solution that is perfectly suited to your specific business needs.
Ordered client usage reporting and captive portal solutions, all works as intended. Erik was very helpful and professional during all stages of the deployment, including post-sales support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Self-hosted vs CPaaS vs Paid Access—how do I choose?
Pick self-hosted if you want full data control, on-prem/server freedom, and deep customization. Choose CPaaS if you want the fastest launch with zero server upkeep—hosting, SSL, updates, and monitoring are handled for you. Select and Paid Access if you need to sell internet access (passes, time/volume) with built-in payments through Stripe.
What exactly is the Paid-Access portal?
It’s our UniFi-compatible portal focused on selling Wi-Fi—think time- or data-limited passes, day passes, or venue pricing—using online payments and automatic access control. This solution is self-hosted.
Which payment providers are supported for Paid-Access?
We support Stripe for card payments using their secure token-based payments platform. This greatly reduces PCI compliance requirements and increases security.
How fast can we go live?
CPaaS usually launches the same day. Self-Hosted and Paid-Access (self-hosted) can be running within a day on a small (virtual) server once DNS/SSL and SMTP credentials are ready.

Choose one of our three regions—Central Europe (Amsterdam), North America (San Francisco), or South-East Asia (Singapore)—and your tenant stays in that region.
What maintenance is required?
Self-Hosted/Paid-Access (self-hosted): you handle OS updates, SSL certificates, snapshots, and backups. CPaaS: we handle hosting, updates, monitoring, snapshots, backups, and SSL certificates for you.
