Our platform offers support for a diverse selection of social media and social networking applications. Each login method provides the flexibility to choose the desired color for the account button associated with the respective application on the Captive Portal.

In case the desired colors are not available in the provided palette, you can utilize the Pantone color code and enter it into the "color picker" or "color search bar" provided below.

This feature enables the administration to fully customize the button's color, ensuring it aligns precisely with the specific preferences or branding requirements.



Below, you will find valuable information on effectively utilizing each application after it has been enabled on the Captive Portal:

Facebook

Our platform offers the Facebook Like Button feature, allowing the company to provide its WiFi users with the option to follow a dedicated Facebook Fan Page.

  • When the Like Button is enabled, it will be visible to users on the Captive Portal, allowing them to easily click and follow the company’s Facebook Fan Page.

  • If the decision is made to disable the Like Button, it will no longer be visible on the Captive Portal, thereby removing the option for users to follow the company's Facebook Fan Page through the Portal.

This feature provides flexibility in promoting and growing the company’s Facebook presence, giving control over whether to show or hide the Like Button on the Captive Portal interface.

To enhance the control over social media logins, the company has to input the company's Facebook Page URL. The platform will retrieve the Facebook Page ID associated with the company’s account. To ensure successful linking to the configuration, please make sure to click on the 'Retrieve Facebook ID' button provided. This streamlines the process, ensuring accurate and efficient integration of the Facebook Page with the login system.


The Facebook Check-In Option feature grants flexibility in determining whether WiFi users have the ability to check in to the location via Facebook. When this feature is enabled as a requirement, WiFi users have to check into the location on Facebook, sharing their visit with their social network.

This can enhance visibility and engagement for your business. Alternatively, if choose to enable this feature as optional, users will have the choice to check in or not. This provides them with the freedom to decide whether they want to share their visit on Facebook. Additionally, by disabling this feature entirely, WiFi users will not be prompted to check in to your location via Facebook. This feature allows you to control how users interact with your business on social media platforms, ensuring alignment with the company’s business goals and preferences.

To configure the account for WiFi user check-ins, the administration needs to add the company’s Facebook location URL to the settings. Make sure to include the URL and then click on the 'Retrieve Facebook ID' button to retrieve and link the Facebook ID to the configuration.
