Building Developers
Purpose
Hotspot solutions that allow buildings to offer residents convenient, affordable Internet access options, or include the Internet in the rent.
Problem
Why does your building need proper Internet connectivity?
Internet connectivity has become a basic need, and an important consideration for people when choosing their accommodation. A building developer needs to ensure it makes provision for Internet connectivity when planning the building infrastructure, providing room for cabled Internet connectivity (Fibre or copper), or installing Wi-Fi connectivity.
Solution
How does a WISH Wi-Fi Hotspot solve this problem?
A combination of Fibre and Wi-Fi enables the building to offer the biggest variety of Internet connectivity to it’s residents, with no installation fee / connection fee, and both prepaid and monthly data options available at Fibre speeds. Internet connectivity could also be managed by WISH and included in the rental, with each resident allocated their portion and the option to buy extra as required.
Internet connectivity options are an important consideration for people when choosing their accommodation. WISH can help the developer create an offering best suited to the tenants of the specific building, then perform the installation, and offer Internet services to the tenants of the building.

Description
How does it work?
The service varies from building to building, but in general residents have an option when they move in to simply connect to the Wi-Fi network inside the building and buy prepaid data online. No installation fee, no waiting period. Should a building also have a copper or Fibre network inside the building, residents can open an account and subscribe to a monthly Internet subscription at speeds of up to 100Mbps, OR make use of a prepaid service to buy smaller data packages as and when required.
