Social WiFi logo CaptiFi logo

CaptiFi is guest WiFi marketing for venues, with prices published in six currencies, its WiFi device on every plan against a refundable deposit, every integration from Growth, and a 30-day trial on every plan.

How CaptiFi differs

Where CaptiFi differs from Social WiFi

CaptiFi connects to Square tills and to Leat loyalty from Growth.

CaptiFi includes its WiFi device on every plan against a refundable deposit.

Every CaptiFi plan has a 30-day trial, and prices are published in six currencies.

Table bookings and event tickets come with CaptiFi Growth.

When is Social WiFi the right pick?

Venues that already own a supported access point and want WhatsApp marketing, a loyalty programme and ad audiences in one package, with every feature included. If that sounds like you, Social WiFi may suit you. CaptiFi is built for venues that want published prices in their own currency, its WiFi device against a refundable deposit, and every integration from Growth.

Still under contract elsewhere?

If you're moving from another guest WiFi or WiFi marketing provider and that contract hasn't finished yet, CaptiFi is free until it does, for up to six months from the day your trial starts. It works on every plan.

  1. Start your 30-day trial on the plan you want. You add a card, the same as for any trial. If you order the CaptiFi access point, its usual refundable deposit is taken when the kit is ordered.
  2. Email your contract or latest invoice to hello@captifi.io at least two days before the trial ends. It needs to show the provider and the date the contract ends.
  3. We move your first payment to that date. If it's more than six months after your trial started, billing starts at six months instead, on the plan you chose.

Ready to switch?

A 30-day trial on every plan. The CaptiFi device on every plan, on a refundable deposit. No setup fee.
