Local expertise, SLAs built around quantifiable deliverables, one accountable partner across your IT stack.
Why businesses choose this
Branded captive portal
Guests land on a splash page in your brand — logo, colours, terms of use and marketing message before they connect.
POPIA-friendly sign-in
Email, SMS-OTP, social or voucher login with clear consent, opt-in marketing and audit trail — aligned with POPIA and RICA best practice.
Guest network isolation
Guests are ring-fenced from your POS, back-office and staff Wi-Fi so a compromised phone never becomes a business risk.
Fair-use bandwidth control
Per-device speed caps, session limits and content filtering keep streaming abusers from ruining the experience for paying guests.
Seamless coverage
Site surveyed, professionally installed Ubiquiti / Mikrotik / Ruckus access points with mesh or PoE backhaul — no dead spots, no dropped sessions.
Marketing & analytics
Capture opt-in guest data, footfall trends, repeat-visitor rates and dwell time — turn free Wi-Fi into a genuine marketing channel.

Frequently asked
- Do you supply the fibre or LTE line for the hotspot?
- Yes — Marveltec can bundle the underlying fibre or LTE connection, the failover, the router and the hotspot access points on a single monthly invoice with one SLA.
- Is guest Wi-Fi POPIA compliant?
- It can be. Our captive portals collect explicit consent, publish clear terms of use, keep an auditable connection log and separate marketing opt-in from access — the pattern most South African venues need to be POPIA-defensible.
- Can guests be prevented from reaching our POS or office PCs?
- Yes. Guest traffic sits on an isolated VLAN with firewall rules that only allow internet egress — POS, CCTV, back-office and staff Wi-Fi remain fully protected.
- Do you cater for multi-site brands?
- Yes — franchise groups, hotel portfolios and retail chains get centralised policy, one dashboard, one branded portal template and consistent guest analytics across every site.
- Can we monetise the hotspot with paid vouchers or ads?
- Absolutely. We can enable time-based vouchers, tiered speed packages or sponsor / advert placements on the splash page as an extra revenue stream.
