How does CaptiFi capture diner emails?

When guests connect to your WiFi, CaptiFi shows a branded splash page asking for their email (or offering social login via Facebook/Google). The data is captured automatically - no staff involvement needed. Works with any router: UniFi, TP-Link Omada, Meraki, or our plug-and-play device (hardware included, refundable hold).

Can CaptiFi automate Google review requests?

Yes. CaptiFi automatically sends a Google review request to guests after their visit - timed for when they're most likely to leave a positive review. Restaurants using CaptiFi typically see a 3-5x increase in monthly reviews.

Does CaptiFi work with my existing router?

CaptiFi works with UniFi, TP-Link Omada, Cisco Meraki, Aruba, MikroTik, Ruckus, and more. If your router isn't compatible, hardware is included (refundable hold) and works alongside your existing broadband.

How much does CaptiFi cost for a restaurant?

Plans start from £49/month (or £39/month on annual billing). Every plan includes all features, all integrations, and a WiFi device (hardware included, refundable hold). There are no setup fees, no hidden costs, and you can cancel anytime.

Is CaptiFi GDPR compliant for UK restaurants?

Fully. CaptiFi is built for UK GDPR and PECR compliance. Consent capture, data retention policies, opt-out handling, and data export are all built in. Network separation ensures guest traffic is isolated from your business systems.

How long does it take to set up?

Under 10 minutes. Plug in the included device, connect to your broadband, customise your splash page in the dashboard, and you're live. No IT knowledge required.

The Problem

Your Restaurant Has Hundreds of Guests. You Have Zero of Their Details.

Every guest who walks out without giving you their email is a guest you can never market to again. No birthday offers. No new menu announcements. No quiet-night promos. New to the approach? Read our full guide to guest WiFi marketing for restaurants.

Anonymous Diners

Hundreds of covers a week, and without WiFi capture you collect zero emails from any of them.

Silent Satisfied Diners

Happy diners rarely leave Google reviews on their own. Only angry ones do. Without automated review requests, your star rating suffers.

Empty Quiet Nights

Tuesday empty? Without a customer database, you can't send a targeted "20% off tonight" offer to local diners.

Features

Everything a Restaurant Needs to Grow

From email capture to automated reviews - all the tools G2 reviewers say competitors lack, built into every CaptiFi plan.

Capture Diner Emails

Every guest who connects to WiFi automatically shares their email. No QR codes, no paper forms, no staff effort.

Automate Google Reviews

Automatically ask happy diners for a Google review, timed for maximum conversion. See 3-5x more monthly reviews.

Birthday Offers

Collect birthdays at WiFi login and send automated offers. Birthday diners rarely arrive alone.

Quiet Night Promos

Tuesday empty? Send a flash offer at 2pm and fill the evening. Target local diners with time-sensitive campaigns.

Welcome Emails

Automated welcome sequence that thanks guests for visiting and drives a second visit within 30 days.

Analytics Dashboard

See daily connections, peak hours, return rates, and campaign performance. The analytics competitors lack.

New Menu Launches

Launching a seasonal menu? Email your entire database with one click. Higher conversion than social media.

GDPR Built-In

Consent capture, data retention, opt-out handling - all compliant with UK GDPR and PECR out of the box.
