Bubblepay requires shared management of your TP-Link Smart Plug to remotely manage the connected powerboard on your behalf. This allows us to:

  • Monitor and manage power usage efficiently.

  • Troubleshoot and reset the powerboard remotely if any issues arise.

  • Ensure continuous, uninterrupted service by handling power-related issues proactively.

  • Provide technical support without needing physical access to the equipment.

This helps us ensure the smooth operation of devices linked to the powerboard and resolve issues quickly, minimizing downtime.
