Quick answer

Public WiFi hotspots in hotels, cafes, malls, and public spaces represent growing revenue for ISPs. But hotspot management needs different tools — voucher generation, time-limited access, captive portal integration, and PM-WANI compliance. NowaCRM adds hotspot billing to your existing broadband platform.

01

Voucher Generation & Distribution

Generate WiFi access vouchers in bulk — time-limited (1 hour, 1 day, 1 week) or data-limited (500MB, 1GB, 5GB). Each voucher has a unique code, QR code, and printed format. Distribute through hotels, cafes, or vending kiosks. Track voucher generation, distribution, and redemption with full audit.

02

RADIUS Hotspot Authentication

Hotspot users authenticate via RADIUS using voucher codes or MAC-based registration. MikroTik Hotspot and other captive portal solutions integrate via standard RADIUS protocol. Session attributes control bandwidth limit, session timeout, and data limit per voucher type.

03

Session Management

Track active hotspot sessions in real-time. Each session records start time, duration, bytes used, and remaining balance. Sessions timeout automatically when voucher validity or data limit is reached. Disconnect idle sessions to free capacity. Dashboard shows concurrent users per hotspot location.

04

Location-Based Management

Manage multiple hotspot locations — each with its own NAS device, plan catalog, and voucher types. Location-wise revenue and usage reports. Hotel-specific branding on login pages. Location managers can generate and distribute vouchers from their portal.

05

PM-WANI Compliance

For ISPs operating PM-WANI (Prime Minister WiFi Access Network Initiative) hotspots, NowaCRM tracks user registration, session logs, and usage data as required. PDO (Public Data Office) management with location registration and compliance reporting. Revenue reconciliation between PDO partners and the ISP.
