How It Works

What is carrier Wi-Fi offload?

Mobile networks get congested wherever people gather, and indoor signal is often weak. Carrier Wi-Fi offload shifts that mobile data traffic onto your venue's Wi-Fi network instead, giving visitors a better connection and giving your Wi-Fi a way to pay for itself.

Seamless for your visitors

Visitors' phones switch from cellular to your Wi-Fi automatically. There's nothing for them to do, and they get a better connection where mobile signal is weak.

Simple for your venue

  • Runs on the enterprise-grade Wi-Fi equipment you already have.

  • No setup costs or ongoing fees for the venue.
