What WifiPadi does
You have customers at one or more locations. WifiPadi lets you sell them WiFi access.- A payment page your guests see when they connect, called a captive portal.
- Plans you control: a price, a time limit, a data limit, a device count.
- Payment straight into your own Paystack, Monnify or Flutterwave account. WifiPadi never holds your money.
- One dashboard for every location you run.
- A WhatsApp assistant your customers can message to check their data and renew.

Buy your own cheapest plan
From a phone, on your own WiFi. It is the only test that proves the whole chain works. Designing your plans
Your first 21 days are free, with nothing to pay. When the trial ends you choose how to pay: per location, per month, or — in Nigeria — pay-as-you-go for the hours your locations are online. You then have 3 days, with everything still running, to choose. Read Your subscription before the trial ends — a workspace with no way to pay by then stops selling at every location at once.

- Guests cannot pay, or access takes minutes — the webhook is almost certainly not connected. Connect the webhook
- A location is offline — Troubleshooting a gateway
- “The WiFi keeps disconnecting” — if the customer has two devices on a plan with a data limit, read data limits and device limits together
- Everything stopped at once — check Your subscription has not lapsed
