Wireless Hotspots
Now there's a low cost, low fuss method for offering wireless internet access.
We've incorporated our proprietary WiFi software, including credit card
payment gateway, onto a wireless access point.
Just plug the
pre-configured SmartTimer access
point into your router and start
your profit stream from Prepaid Wireless Internet sales.
The SmartTimer Hotspot is both versatile and flexible. You create and
control your own pricing and session time
structures. As a manager,
you can monitor your sales activities
from anywhere in the world.
Your customers will enjoy the benefit of utilising their full prepaid time
over one or more sessions, until their prepaid credit expires.
Where bandwidth is an issue, SmartTimer Hotspot allows you to
restrict individual User download speeds as required
(also known as Traffic Shaping),
so that any one User is
unable to dominate the entire bandwidth.
How Does It Work?
When a User goes to browse, the SmartTimer access point captures the requested web page and redirects it to a login page. This login page can be customised with your own branding and pricing structure. In order to proceed, the User is prompted to purchase a PIN using their credit card or enter a valid PIN from a prepaid internet access card sold by you.
As an licensend operator you can choose to sell prepaid internet cards and/or offer access via the secure credit card processing gateway.
Prepaid Internet Access Cards
You have the option of selling your customers a SmartTimer Prepaid Internet Access Card.
An assortment of 200 prepaid cards will be provided to you free of charge, upon account activation, and are these cards will be pre-configured to match your session time structure.
Secure Credit Card Processing
Should choose to offer this method, your customers can to purchase prepaid time using their credit card. Payments are processed via the internationally recognized PayPal network. This ensures that all user financial information remains confidential.
Users do not need to be PayPal members - they simply use the widely accepted PayPal credit card processing facility. PayPal members have the option to pay using either their account or credit card.
The SmartTimer secure credit card payment gateway can become your sole payment method for a totally automated WiFi Hotspot, free of any staff handling and managed remotely.

Boost The Signal
Depending on your installation, you may need greater coverage than that offered by the SmartTimer Hotspot.

Signal boosters are ideal for caravan / trailer parks, libraries, business centres, shopping malls, schools, resorts, hotels, motels, residential complexes, marinas etc…
