Bar WiFi That Fills Slow Nights and Grows Loyal Regulars

VoqadoWiFi turns your venue WiFi into a guest list you own. Consented emails captured at the portal, birthday club invites that send themselves, scheduled campaigns for your quiet nights, and an automatic review request after every visit, running on the TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi access points you already have.

Every tool a bar owner needs to fill
seats, grow reviews, and build regulars

Your guest list is your most valuable business asset. VoqadoWiFi builds it automatically every night, then helps you activate it with SMS, email, and targeted campaigns.

Event Promotion Campaigns to Your Guest List

Every time a guest connects to your bar WiFi, they join your marketing database. When you've got a themed night, a DJ residency, or a private hire coming up, you have a ready audience who've already been through your door. Targeted event promotion emails drive measurable ticket sales and covers.

Slow Night Promos That Fill Midweek Seats

Schedule a campaign to your segmented guest list for the mornings before your quiet nights, with whatever offer you choose, a happy hour, a two-for-one, a returning-guest discount. The platform handles the scheduling and the segmenting. Whether midweek fills is down to the offer, and we cannot promise you that part.

Birthday Club Automation: One Setup, Runs All Year

Capture birthdays at WiFi login and a scheduler sends a personalised invite ahead of each one, every year, with no further work from you. Birthdays are a good bet for a bar because the guest arrives with a group, but the size of that bet depends on your offer, not on our software.

Phone Capture at the Portal

You can add a phone number field to the login form and collect numbers alongside emails, with consent logged the same way. Be clear on what that gives you today: VoqadoWiFi stores the numbers and exports them, but does not send SMS campaigns itself. To text that list you would use your own SMS provider, fed by export, webhook, or the Enterprise API.

Guest CRM With Visit History & Frequency Data

Build a genuine understanding of your regulars. Know which guests visit weekly, which come for special occasions, and which you haven't seen in 60 days. Segment your marketing precisely, reward the regulars, re-engage the lapsed, and nurture the first-timers into loyal patrons.

GDPR-Compliant Data Capture & Consent Management

Every guest profile is built on explicit, timestamped consent captured at the portal, stored on EU infrastructure, with unsubscribe and erasure handled from the dashboard. That record is what makes the list usable, and it is the difference between a marketing asset and a liability.

From first visit to lifelong regular, automated

Setup in under an hour. Guest data captured from the first night. Campaigns running before you close.

1

Connect Your Bar WiFi

Point your TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi controller at VoqadoWiFi. Your doors never close for it and no cabling changes. Those two platforms are the whole compatibility list, so confirm yours before you plan around it.

Guests Connect, You Build Your List

Every guest who wants WiFi sees your branded portal. They enter their details, consent to marketing, and get online. A busy Friday is the cheapest list-building night you will ever run, because the guests are already asking you for something.

Automated Campaigns Run While You Close Up

Birthday invites go out ahead of the date. Scheduled campaigns hit your segments before quiet nights. Event announcements target guests who came recently. Review requests land on the delay you set. All of it by email, which is the channel the platform sends on.

What a Friday night actually leaves behind

Two hundred guests in, and normally nothing out

A packed room is worth one night's takings and no way to reach anyone in it again. Here is precisely what the portal does to change that, and where its limits are.

1

A guest asks bar staff for the WiFi

They get your portal instead of a password shouted over the music. That redirect is the whole mechanism, and it works without any staff involvement on a busy night.

2

Email, optional phone, and consent are logged

Timestamped and stored together. The phone field is optional and the numbers are yours, though the platform will not text them for you, that needs your own SMS provider.

3

Regulars match to one growing record

Visit count and last-seen date increment instead of duplicating. This is how you find the people who came four weekends running and then stopped, which is the segment worth having.

4

A review request queues on a delay

Set in hours, so it lands the next morning rather than at closing time. Asking a guest for a review while they are still in the room is not a mistake you have to make twice.

5

Birthdays and quiet nights get scheduled sends

The birthday scheduler runs ahead of each date, all year, from one setup. Slow-night campaigns go to the segment you pick, on the morning you pick, by email.

6

The list leaves with you if you go

Contacts sync to Mailchimp, events fire over HMAC-signed webhooks, and you can export the whole database whenever you want. An owned list is only owned if you can take it.

A worked example, not a measured result

Suppose two busy nights a week bring 150 guests each, and 40% connect and complete the form. That is roughly 480 consented contacts a month. If a birthday campaign reaches 40 of them a month and one in eight comes in with a group of four spending £15 a head, that is £300 from an automation you configured once.

Every figure in that paragraph is an assumption chosen to show the arithmetic, not a measurement, and not a promise. Your door numbers, connection rate and spend per head are the only ones that matter.

Model it with your own door numbers

The hardware question, answered plainly

VoqadoWiFi works with TP-Link Omada and Ubiquiti UniFi, and nothing else. Plenty of bars are running a consumer router behind the bar, which will not work, worth establishing on day one rather than day thirty.

Bar WiFi marketing, your questions answered

From SMS campaigns and guest data ownership to event promos and hardware compatibility.

Guest data, name, email, phone number if you enable that field, visit history, and marketing consent, is stored in your VoqadoWiFi account on EU infrastructure. You are the data controller and we are the processor: we do not share, sell, or reuse your guest data. You can export the full database at any time, which also means you are never locked in by it.

It can capture them. You can add a phone number field to your portal login form, and numbers arrive with consent logged the same way as email addresses. What it does not do is send the texts, VoqadoWiFi has no SMS sending channel today. You would export the list or pipe it to your own SMS provider over a webhook. If a same-night text blast is central to your plan, factor in that second tool and its cost.

Email. Campaigns are built and sent from the dashboard to a segment you choose, such as guests who came in the last 30 days but not the last 14, either scheduled or triggered, a birthday ahead of the date, a review request after a visit, an NPS survey at a chosen visit count. Email is the whole sending surface, which makes it a good fit for planning a Thursday and a poor one for filling a room in the next two hours.

Yes, and it is a strong fit. Target guests who visited in the last 60 days, write your event copy, attach the ticket link, and schedule it to land a week out with a reminder closer to the date. The advantage over paid social is the audience: these are people who have physically been in your venue and opted in, rather than a lookalike an ad platform assembled for you.

No honest vendor can answer that for your venue, so we will not put a multiplier on it. The mechanical change is that every guest who logs in gets asked, on the delay you set, which fixes the actual reason most bars have few reviews, nobody asks, and door staff are not going to. Conversion from ask to review depends on your crowd and your night. Run the ROI calculator on your own numbers instead of ours.

Only on TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi. There is no support for Meraki, MikroTik, Aruba, or the consumer router a lot of bars are running behind the bar, and no RADIUS bridge to get around it. Check which controller you have before anything else, because this is the one requirement with no workaround.
