How it works

From router to first sale in an afternoon.

Wanvane runs the vouchers, the splash page and the payments. Your router does what it already does well: let people on, and keep them to what they paid for.

STEP 1

Connect your router

Add your MikroTik and paste one script into its terminal. It connects to Wanvane over a secure tunnel, and vouchers start authenticating through it.

STEP 2

Create your packages

Time, data, speed and how long a voucher stays valid. Whichever runs out first ends the session: one hour, a day with 2 GB, a month unlimited.

STEP 3

Start selling

Guests buy a package on your splash page and are online in seconds. Or print a batch of vouchers and sell them over the counter.

Everything a hotspot needs

One place for the WiFi side of the business.

Packages & vouchers

Sell by time, data or both, with speed limits and an expiry. Print voucher batches with codes that cannot be misread at the till.

Your own splash page

Your logo, your welcome text and your terms, on the page guests see before they are let on. Add your own HTML if you want it exactly so.

Online payments

PayFast, Ozow and DPO Pay, using your own merchant accounts. The money goes straight to you, not through us.

A live dashboard

Live users, today’s sales, the last week and month, best-selling packages and how people paid, on the page you land on.

Automatic expiry

A voucher ends when its time, data or validity runs out. Nobody has to remember to switch anyone off.

More than one site

Run hotspots at several venues from one account, and see how many people are online at each router.

Payments

Guests pay you. Directly.

Connect the payment gateway you already use, or open one. A guest picks a package, pays, and gets their code on the same page, usually in seconds.

  • PayFast: cards and instant EFT in South Africa
  • Ozow: instant EFT from any South African bank
  • DPO Pay: cards and mobile money across Africa
  • A code is only issued once the gateway confirms the payment to Wanvane directly, so nobody can fake their way online

Pricing

Pay for the people online. Not the vouchers you print.

R1.50 per live user per month, licensed in blocks of 50 from 100 users. A live user is somebody with a voucher that is still valid. Unused and finished vouchers cost nothing.
