Hundreds of regulars sip a flat white at your counter every week, and you cannot reach a single one. CaptiFi captures their email through your guest WiFi, automates Google review requests, and fills quiet mornings with targeted offers - all on autopilot.
A cafe lives on repeat custom. Yet most coffee shops collect zero contact details from the very people who keep them open. No way to announce a new blend, fill a quiet 10am, or win a few extra reviews.
You recognise the faces and know their usual order, but you have no email, no mobile, no way to reach them between visits.
The 7-9am rush is rammed, then it falls quiet. Without a customer list, you cannot nudge locals in for a slow 10:30am coffee and cake.
Happy regulars rarely leave a review unprompted. Your Google rating lags behind a cafe two streets away that simply asks.
From counter email capture to quiet-morning offers, built for independents who want loyal regulars and a stronger local reputation.
Every customer who connects to your WiFi shares their email. Build your database while they wait for their order. No QR codes, no paper forms, no staff effort.
Timed review requests after a visit catch happy regulars at the right moment. Cafes see 3-5× more Google reviews, which is how locals find you.
Track repeat visitors and reward loyalty automatically. A simple "your tenth coffee is on us" nudge turns occasional visitors into daily regulars.
Mid-morning lull? Send a "free pastry with any coffee before noon" flash offer and bring locals in during the hours that usually go to waste.
Launching a single-origin guest roast or a seasonal menu? Email your whole list in one click. Far higher reach than a social post most followers never see.
An automated welcome sequence thanks first-time customers and gives them a reason to come back within their first week.
See peak hours, busiest days, repeat-visit rates, and campaign performance. Know exactly when your cafe is quiet and who to bring back.
Consent capture, data retention, and opt-out handling, all compliant with UK GDPR and PECR out of the box.
We ship you a free CaptiFi device. Plug it into your broadband behind the counter, or connect to your existing UniFi or Omada setup. Takes 5 minutes.
Add your cafe logo, colours, and a friendly welcome message in the visual builder. Customers see your brand when they log in. No coding needed.
Customer emails flow in. Welcome emails, review requests, and quiet-morning offers send themselves. You stay behind the machine pulling shots.
Based on real G2 reviews of the leading WiFi marketing platforms, here is what hospitality owners say matters most, and how CaptiFi delivers.

"We had zero customer emails and a Google rating that did not reflect the place. The automated review requests nudged our regulars and our rating climbed fast. Setup took ten minutes."
"Mid-mornings used to be dead. Now I send a 10am offer to our list and the tables fill up. The quiet-hour revenue covers CaptiFi several times over."
"We built a list of loyal regulars without lifting a finger. When we launch a new seasonal blend, one email brings them straight back in. Much better than hoping people see a post."
