Hotels and B&Bs
Booking sites keep your guests’ email addresses. You only see them once they have arrived.
Every guest joins your Wi-Fi within a minute of arriving. That’s your chance to get a direct relationship and stop paying a booking site’s commission for the same guest twice.
- Works with any broadband
- Live in under an hour
- Nothing changes on your router
- 30 days to change your mind
Common problems
The booking site keeps the guest relationship and takes a cut of every return visit.
Guests who stayed three times are strangers to your marketing.
The restaurant and the bar are empty while the rooms are full.
What you’d actually use it for
They’re staying tonight
The connected page can point them at your restaurant instead of the one down the road.
They check out
A message the next day asking how it was, and a review link. Not a card left on a pillow.
You want the direct booking
Next time, email them yourself with a better rate than the OTA is showing. You keep the commission a booking site would have taken.
It’s the quiet season
Message everyone who’s stayed before. They already know the drive and they already liked it.
A guest returns
You’ll know before they reach the desk, because their phone joins the same network it did last time.
You run events
Wedding guests all join the Wi-Fi. That is a whole wedding party who now know the venue exists.
Built for the router in your cupboard
Guest Wi-Fi software normally expects you to already own commercial networking equipment, fitted by a contractor. Most small venues don’t, and there is no reason they should.
If your router came in a box from BT, Sky, Virgin or anyone else, this was built for you. We supply the equipment. You keep the broadband you’ve got.
“Guests expect the Wi-Fi to just work. I can’t put a form in the way.”
It’s one field and it takes about eight seconds. Regular guests are recognised and go straight through without seeing it again. And nobody has to ring reception to ask for a password.
