stampedevs Captive WiFi

Captive WiFi turns your Wi-Fi login into guest data and pushes it into your other tools. Stampede captures the same guest and acts on them, with bookings, loyalty, reviews and marketing native in one platform.

The short version

The short version.

Choose Captive WiFi if
  • You only want a Wi-Fi capture layer and already run your CRM, loyalty and bookings elsewhere.
  • You want a simple branded splash page that syncs into those tools.
  • A lightweight point tool suits you better than a platform.
Choose Stampede if
  • You want Wi-Fi capture and bookings, loyalty, reviews and marketing in one platform.
  • You want to act on the guest, not just push their details to another system.
  • You want one owned guest profile, not a capture tool feeding a stack of separate tools.
  • You want the marketing, loyalty and reviews included, not bolted on by integration.
The core difference

Capture, or act on it.

Captive WiFi does one job: it turns your Wi-Fi login into guest data and pushes it into your other tools (Stampede among them). That leaves you running email, loyalty, bookings and reviews in separate systems. Stampede captures the same guest and acts, natively, from one owned profile.

Pricing

What you actually pay.

The difference is one flat price per venue against fees that stack per cover, per module and per contact.

Stampede

One flat price per venue

The whole platform, priced per venue and sized to your estate on one call.

  • Wi-Fi capture, bookings, loyalty, reviews and marketing all included
  • One platform, so nothing is priced as a separate integration
  • You get the number in the first conversation, flat per venue
  • Your guest data is yours to keep and export at any time
Captive WiFi

Published per-venue Wi-Fi plans

A free Starter tier and a paid plan (around £33 per venue per month), billed per venue.

  • Free tier for a single venue; paid plan adds integrations, feedback and reporting
  • Runs as software over your existing Wi-Fi hardware, no proprietary box
  • Email, SMS, loyalty and bookings depend on third-party integrations
  • A small, focused capture tool rather than a full guest platform
Switching

Switching from Captive WiFi.

Keep capturing guests on Wi-Fi, and stop wiring the rest together from separate tools. We set Stampede up on your existing Wi-Fi and bring your captured contacts across, so capture, marketing, loyalty and reviews all live in one place.

  • We bring your captured contacts across for you
  • Runs on your existing Wi-Fi via the SNAPguard box
  • Onboarding is guided and included, not a DIY import
