Easy configuration
Using the SiteCafe Configuration Wizard, the installation and configuration of the software is fast and easy. No programming skills are required as you are taken step by step through the setup process.

Each section of the Configuration Wizard features a “Help” button, which will provide you with more detailed information on the corresponding setup option.

SiteCafe manager
SiteCafe Manager allows you to manage SiteKiosk and HotSpot Clients at the same time.
Credit management
Just like in a phone booth, a user will lose his or her remaining credit at the end of the session. SiteCafe, however, makes it possible to set up a user account (SiteKiosk Client only) to which a user can save his or her credit.

This will allow the user to come back to the cafe and use up the credit he or she has left over from the last session.
Fig.: account overview showing remaining credit
Multiple-language user interface
SiteCafe is available in the following display languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Portuguese, and Dutch.
Statistics
SiteCafe provides extensive statistical functions that allow you to display and evaluate the following information:
Cash and session sales
Creating reports
Staff statistics
User statistics

User statistics
SiteCafe makes it easy to gather data from every user and store this information with a separate register. The button "User Login Stats" creates an optional register of Internet users and enables you to store and print this information via the Export function.

MY PUBLIC HOTSPOT

Click to enlarge pictures (they will open in an other window)
My-Public-HotSpot
My-Public-HotSpot
My-Public-HotSpot was developed for the specific needs of Internet cafes, hotels, and training classrooms. Use this module to allow your customers to use your wireless LAN at a charge or free by entering a password (controlled access), e.g. if customers would like to surf the Web using their own laptops or mobile phones.
 

Note: you can download My-Public-HotSpot as a standalone application. It is, however, also available as a module as part of the SiteCafe installation version.

Also read our .pdf document “Why public places need a special W-Lan HotSpot solution.” 

 
License once, and allow any number of customers to use HotSpot

You pay one license fee per installation location (e.g. hotel) no matter how many customers want to use your hot spot at the same time.
No operator contract/ no minimum turnover

Existing hotspot solutions are often offered only in conjunction with an operator contract which forces you to share the bulk of your revenue with a third party. You will not have to put up with that when using "My-Public-HotSpot": you are the only one profiting from the usage fees you earn!
Minor hardware investments

You can install My-Public-HotSpot on any standard Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 computer (even older machines). The only two other things you will need to run your own HotSpot is a WLAN access point and a second network card - done!
Conveniently change settings

You can use SiteCafe Manager to adjust all important client settings, e.g. (optional) usage fees, terms of use, company logo and news, from one central location.
Installation
Running HotSpot requires that the installation computer be fitted with two network cards: one network card for regular Internet access, as you will know from your own PC at home, and a second network card for connecting the WLAN access point.
Internet access of a WLAN hot spot controlled by a server
After installing all components, you can use SiteCafe Manager to conveniently manage different WIFI clients of your customers on top of all SiteKiosk and SiteCafe clients.
Configuration
Use the My-Public-HotSpot configuration tool to adjust the basic settings for every WIFI client.

Fig.: Operation
The operation mode of My-Public-HotSpot
Connecting to the WIFI works in the same way with which you and your customers are already familiar. You switch your laptop on and search for available and unencrypted WIFI networks. Users connect to your WIFI network and open their Web browser. However, irrespective of the URL they entered, users will now be shown a special welcome page and prompted to authenticate themselves.
You as the operator can use the configuration tool to change the layout/design of this Start Page and, for instance, add your company logo. This will remain the only page the user will be able to access until he or she authenticates. Once logged in, the user is shown the regular Windows desktop. An information window keeps the user informed about his or her credit balance and also lets the user end his or her session (log out).
Fig.: After logging on to the HotSpot, the user will be shown an information window
Fig.: Login
Authentication and payment options
Users have various options when it comes to signing on to the system:

- User name and password

- Prepaid PIN code or voucher

- by credit card (PayPal)
- optional password
 

Go to Screenshots&Functions for a list of the authentication and payment options supported by "My-Public-HotSpot".
Logging
You can use "My-Public-HotSpot" to record all client sessions. This allows you, if necessary, to track which (anonymous) client has called up which URL. Passwords and any other sensitive information will, of course, not be recorded.
Fig.: Logging
Fig.: Free Websites
Free Websites
You as the operator can specify several Web sites your users will be able to open once they have authenticated themselves. These Web sites can, for example, include your own homepage or the information pages offered by your partner companies.
Frequently asked questions:
Question: The range of my WIFI access point is only 30 meters. What can I do to still offer HotSpot access everywhere in my hotel?
Answer: To extend the range of your WIFI, you can use WIFI repeaters or range extenders. These devices can be obtained from the usual commercial sources.
Question: I would like to offer my customers WIFI access free of charge. Would the use of the HotSpot module make any sense under these circumstances?
Answer: Yes, because you can still issue prepaid codes including credit balances to your customers or guests even though you do not charge them for this service. By doing so, you are making sure that users in adjacent buildings cannot use your HotSpot without paying and, thereby, diminish your bandwidth. Your guests will certainly appreciate this service.
Question: Will my customers be able to purchase prepaid PIN codes / vouchers without having to refer to my staff?
Answer: Yes, you can do so by installing the Ticket Station module on the SiteCafe server. Users will then be able to buy prepaid PIN codes all by themselves. As an alternative, you can also enable the "PayPal" payment option. This allows users to pay their usage fees directly using their PayPal account.

Ticket Station
Ticket Station
Ticket Station allows your customers to independently purchase pre-paid PIN codes at a ticket vending machine. Ticket Station is not a necessary requirement for running SiteCafe. 

The benefits of this software at a glance:
Installation on the same computer as SiteCafe Server

You can install Ticket Station on the same computer on which you installed SiteCafe Server.
Automatic generation of PIN codes that equal the desired credit balance

Customers set the value of the pre-paid codes themselves by the amount they deposit. Ticket Station will then automatically generate a code that equals this amount. This will save you the trouble of generating and printing, for example, 1,000 PIN codes.
Selling vouchers without the need for any staff

Since your customers create their own pre-paid PIN code using the ticket station, you will need fewer staff. Another advantage: since your staff is not involved in the billing process, your accounts will always be correct at the end of the day.
Installation
The SiteCafe software package (version 2.0 or greater) contains the installers for SiteCafe Server, the My-Public-HotSpot, and Ticket Station. Start by installing SiteCafe Server on the designated computer/server. If possible, install Ticket Station on the same computer.

Running Ticket Station requires at least one payment device supported by SiteKiosk, e.g. the emp800 coin acceptor, and a printer/receipt printer. Your customers can use coins, bills or their credit card to acquire a credit balance. 

Using a lockable steel enclosure including coin acceptor which hides the SiteCafe Server computer completely out of sight will protect your investment. Your customers can insert coins into the coin acceptor and generate the code using the mouse (or keyboard). Other, more sophisticated solutions, e.g. touchscreen terminal including receipt printer will work as well.

Configuration
Use the Ticket Station configuration tool to adjust any necessary basic settings.
Fig.: Configuring TicketStation
Fig.: Charging options
Ticket Station's mode of operation
Your guests can use TicketStation to easily create and print out their own pre-paid PIN codes. 

Customers simply deposit the desired amount using the payment device connected to TicketStation. You can also pre-define a minimum amount that your customers will have to deposit. As soon as the customer presses (touchscreen) or clicks on (mouse) "Create code", a request for a corresponding pre-paid PIN code with a value equal to the amount provided will be submitted to the SiteCafe server before TicketStation prints out a corresponding voucher. 

With the help of this voucher, your customers will then be able to use SiteKiosk Client or My-Public-HotSpot Client.
You as the operator can adjust the layout/design of this Start Page as well as the ticket layout using this configuration tool.
Fig.: View ticket and pre-paid PIN code
Frequently asked questions:
Question: Can I use Ticket Station in combination with a regular printer?
Answer: While you can use any Windows-compatible printer in combination with Ticket Station, we recommend that you use a receipt printer.
Question: Can I allow payments by coin and bill at the same time?
Answer: Yes, you can offer up to two different methods of payment.
Question: Can Ticket Station return change?
Answer: No, users can deposit amounts until they reach the desired credit balance. The credit balance is transferred completely to the code. For this reason, there will be no change.
