Start Giving Ticket to Laptop User in Your Café, Restaurant, Hotel, etc.

HotSpot Software is Windows PC gateway software which enables control and charging for Internet access using captive portal technology. This software is suitable for all purposes where customers should get fast login to system without Client software installations on their laptop. Upon connecting to your network (using wireless cards or UTP cable), customer will be prompted to type username and password to get access to Internet. Customer will see their time and bandwidth usage and will be able to refill their time when needed.

Give your customers the flexibility and extra mobility with Wireless Internet Access. This Hotspot is a professional Wireless LAN software solution for providing internet access to your customers. Customers will be redirected to your login page to authenticate with user account or a prepaid-code before getting the Internet access. The software controls download, upload, data transfer, time usage, visited pages. The HotSpot Billing software runs on your Windows PC, controls unlimited user or prepaid-code accounts, and displays data to customers on your self-branded pages.

Hotspot billing software is the definitive tool for managing your public WIFI-HotSpot in internet cafes, schools, hotels, Air-Port, bistros or gaming cafe / game center, etc

The HotSpot software does not require any specific hardware, so you can use Access Points, Modems, Switches or Routers that you already have and using them you can configure the network settings.

HOW IT WORKS?
Once your laptop customers step into your Access Point WiFi range, they will be able to scan the network and discover your Wireless Access Point. On connection, the Access Point will assign them IP and DNS settings automatically using DHCP. Please note that you need to enable the free connection to the Access Point without encryption or other limitations. If you have multiple Access Points you should specify a different IP range that DHCP assigns to wireless users.

At this point, a customer is connected to your WiFI and is able to type some URL in the web browser. This HotSpot will check this IP and MAC addresses and if a customer is not authenticated, it will return login page to the customer browser. A username and a password are required to gain the access to the Internet.

If a customer is new, he is able to sign up for a new account and pay with a credit card. The process is completely automated and a customer is able to choose the username, the password and a pricing plan (like 1 Hour Internet time or one month unlimited access). You do not need staff to sell tickets.
Please note: Appropriate HotSpot software license with the credit card payment option is required.

Computers connected via the switch are already connected in the network and after authentication a customer gets the access to the Internet. In case that these computers have a free access to the Internet, you should specify its MAC addresses in HotSpot Setup - Whitelists - MAC Whitelist page. A typical example of this is the Cybercafe which uses our Internet Cafe software to limit the access and manage computers.
