Migration guide
Live in under an hour

Switch from Social WiFi
to VoqadoWiFi

One subscription instead of a bill per location, a free tier instead of a trial, and pricing you can read before you talk to anyone. If your venues run TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi, the whole move takes about an hour. Here is the exact process.

Why operators make the move

Per account, not per location

Social WiFi attaches its price to each venue you connect. VoqadoWiFi Growth is $49/mo and covers 3 locations under one subscription, with Starter free for a single location. At two or three sites the shape of the bill changes completely.

Published pricing and a real free tier

Every VoqadoWiFi tier is on the pricing page: Starter free, Growth $49/mo, Enterprise quoted. No discovery call to learn a number, and no trial clock. Starter stays free for as long as you want it.

Runs on the hardware you already own

If your venues run TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi access points, there is nothing to buy. You point your existing controller at VoqadoWiFi and keep the same radios on the ceiling.

The Migration, Step by Step

Five steps, roughly an hour of hands on work for a single location, and no window where guests lose their WiFi.

1

Confirm your hardware

About 5 minutes

VoqadoWiFi supports TP-Link Omada and Ubiquiti UniFi, and only those two. Check your access points before anything else. If your estate runs Meraki, Aruba, Ruckus, or another vendor, stop here, because there is no workaround for this step.

2

Export your guest list from Social WiFi

About 10 minutes

Export your guest contacts as CSV from your Social WiFi account while it is still active, together with each guest’s consent record: the wording shown and the date. Keep that file yourself. VoqadoWiFi has no guest import screen; guests join your new list when they sign in on your new login page. Portal designs and campaign templates do not transfer between platforms, so treat those as rebuild work.

3

Create your account and build the splash page

About 20 minutes

Sign up free and rebuild your splash page in the drag and drop portal builder. Add your logo, your consent language, and the fields you want to capture. This is the longest step and it is still measured in minutes, not meetings.

4

Point your controller at VoqadoWiFi

About 15 minutes

In your Omada or UniFi controller, update the guest portal settings to point at VoqadoWiFi following the setup guide for your vendor. Your SSIDs, VLANs, and network layout stay exactly as they are.

5

Test a login and go live

About 10 minutes

Connect a phone to the guest network, run through the portal as a guest, and confirm the record lands in your dashboard. Then cancel Social WiFi on your own schedule. There is no cutover window where guests lose WiFi.

Timings assume a single location with an Omada or UniFi controller already running. Multi location accounts repeat the controller step per site. If anything gets stuck, the setup guides in our docs cover both vendors in detail.

What Carries Over, and What You Rebuild

Comes with you

  • Your guest contacts and consent records, in a CSV you export from Social WiFi and keep (there is no import into VoqadoWiFi)
  • Your access points, SSIDs, and network layout, untouched
  • Your venue branding, recreated in the portal builder

Rebuild fresh

  • The splash page design, in the drag and drop builder
  • Email campaigns and automations: review requests switch on venue by venue as guest email goes live, and campaigns are not live yet
  • Your guest list, which rebuilds as guests sign in on the new login page
  • Historical analytics, which stay in your old account
  • Controller portal settings, pointed at VoqadoWiFi per the setup guide

Migration FAQs

They will see a new splash page the next time they connect, built in your branding in the portal builder. The network name and the WiFi itself do not change, because you keep the same access points and SSIDs. Returning guests simply log in through the new portal.

Not as an import. VoqadoWiFi has no guest import screen: guests join your VoqadoWiFi list when they sign in on your new login page. Export your contacts from Social WiFi with each guest’s consent record and keep that file, because consent given on Social WiFi does not carry over by itself. Portal designs, campaign templates and historical analytics do not transfer either, so plan to rebuild the portal.

No, provided your venues already run TP-Link Omada or Ubiquiti UniFi access points. VoqadoWiFi connects to your existing controller. If your network runs a different vendor, VoqadoWiFi cannot connect to it today, and staying on a wider coverage platform is the honest recommendation.

For a single location with Omada or UniFi already in place, the five steps above add up to roughly an hour of hands on work. Multi location accounts repeat the controller step per site. Nothing in the process requires scheduled downtime for your guests.

VoqadoWiFi publishes every tier: Starter is free for 1 location and 500 logins a month, Growth is $49/mo for 3 locations and 5,000 logins, and Enterprise is quoted. Social WiFi prices per venue, with rates that change by visitor country; on 9 October 2026 its pricing page (socialwifi.com/pricing) showed a US visitor $69 a month for a food and beverage venue, and hotels are priced by room count. Put your own venue count and any quote you hold into our ROI calculator and compare directly.

Yes. Your controller points at one portal at a time per SSID, but your Social WiFi account can stay active while you build and test your VoqadoWiFi portal. Switch the controller when you are happy, and keep the old account until you have confirmed logins are flowing.
