# WiFi hotspot billing software, built for Africa

WifiPadi lets cafés, hostels, estates, offices and campuses sell WiFi. Guests connect, choose a plan, pay by card, transfer or mobile money, and get online in seconds. The money goes to the owner. Over 3,600 WiFi plans sold since June 2026.

## How it works

1. **Create your account.** Add your business and your first location. No card needed.
2. **Connect your router.** Paste the one command we give you. It sets up the login page and payments on your router.
3. **Set your prices.** Create your plans. Guests pay at the login page and get online by themselves.

## Questions hotspot owners ask

### What is WiFi hotspot billing software?

It is the system between your router and your guests. People who join your WiFi see a login page, choose a plan and pay. The software lets them online for the time or data they bought and stops their access when it runs out. WifiPadi does all of this and shows every sale in one dashboard.

### Which routers work with WifiPadi?

MikroTik routers on RouterOS 7.3 or newer, Nano Pi routers, and other routers running OpenWrt. You connect a router by pasting one command we give you in the dashboard.

### Can I sell WiFi in Nigeria without a CAC registration?

Yes. Switch on Instant Payments and guests pay by bank transfer or card through WifiPadi's payments partner. You only need your name and a bank account, and you can withdraw to any Nigerian bank, OPay and PalmPay included, whenever you like.

### How do my customers pay?

The way people already pay where you are: card, bank transfer, USSD and OPay in Nigeria, mobile money in Ghana, Cameroon and Uganda, and M-PESA in Kenya. You can also sell printed vouchers, record cash sales and let agents sell codes for you.

### Does WifiPadi take a cut of my sales?

Not out of the payment itself. WifiPadi bills its own price separately, as set out below. When you connect your own Paystack, Flutterwave or Squad account, guests pay you directly and the money settles to your bank. With Instant Payments, each sale goes to your balance. You cover the transfer or card fee unless you choose to pass it on to guests, and our payments partner charges a small fee when you withdraw.

### How much does WifiPadi cost?

It is free for 21 days, with no card needed. After that it is one price per location each month: ₦10,000 in Nigeria, GH₵150 in Ghana, KSh2,000 in Kenya, FCFA 9,000 in Cameroon and USh35,000 in Uganda. New accounts in Nigeria can pay 2.5% of their WiFi sales instead, never more than ₦10,000 per location a month. No sales, no bill. Your payment provider's own fees are separate.

### Can I sell vouchers or work with resellers?

Yes. Print sheets of prepaid codes for guests who pay in cash, or give agents their own phone login. Agents buy codes from their float and sell them on, and WifiPadi tracks their stock and commission.

### What happens when a guest's plan runs out?

Their access stops on its own. They can renew in one tap from the login page, from a link we send them, or automatically from their wallet balance.

### Do I need to be technical to use WifiPadi?

No. If you can copy and paste, you can connect a router. Every step is written up in our help centre, and our team answers on WhatsApp.

### Which countries does WifiPadi work in?

Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Cameroon and Uganda, each with its local currency and local ways to pay. Selling WiFi somewhere else in Africa? Tell us on WhatsApp. We add countries as hotspot owners ask for them.
