Redirects

You can take advantage of the portal redirection every time your guest connects to your WiFi network. How that works is: your guest sees the captive portal, answers the campaign and clicks on the connect button. Immediately the guest will be redirected to a URL, this could be an External url or an internal Aiwifi Links Page customized by you! 

Some Android devices will automatically close the window when redirected. This is out of our control and any other vendor's control as Android decided this would be the customer journey for captive portals.

There are 3 options for your redirect setup:

1. External URL
2. Internal:

    2.a) Default Internal Redirect

    2.b) Custom Internal Redirect

1. External Redirect

Setup any URL you want. This could be your website or an external form or landing page. 

2. Internal Redirect

2.a) Default Internal Redirect

Aiwifi will redirect your guest to a custom screen showing your brand's logo and a message noting that the guest is already connected and can use the internet service by closing that window. 

2.b) Custom Internal Redirect

This is everyone's favorite! 

Customize how your redirect landing page looks and include links and call to actions (CTA) to guide your guest into links of interest for your user. Also, you'll be able to setup your social networks!

Our recommendations:

1. Setup links of interest that would be helpful inside the venue, for example:

- Restaurants: Digital menu, locations, offers, new dishes.

- Shopping malls: Directory, discounts, events

- Retail: Loyalty program benefits, coupons, offers, new arrivals. 

And so on.
