Guest WiFi marketing for UK hospitality

    Your guest WiFi is giving away free internet for nothing.

    CaptiveFlow replaces the password on your chalkboard with a branded splash page. Every guest enters their email to get online. You get a marketing list that grows every day you're open.

    500+ marketing opt-ins in the first month at our newest venue.

    01 / How it works

    From box to first email,
    in five minutes flat.

    No technicians, no cabling, no contract negotiations. We ship you a FlowBox, you plug it in, and your guests start tapping in their emails the next time they connect.

    Step 01

    We ship your FlowBox.

    Pre-configured for your venue. Arrives ready to plug in, no assembly.

    Step 02

    Plug it in.

    Power and ethernet for FlowBox Pro. Power only for FlowBox Solo. It connects itself.

    Step 03

    Brand the portal.

    Logo, colours, welcome line. Your venue, not ours.

    Step 04

    Capture every email.

    Guests connect, you get their email. Your list grows on its own.

    Capture, recognise, and grow
    your guest list. Automatically.

    Capture emails through a branded portal, recognise returning guests, and send the marketing that turns first visits into regulars. One device, one dashboard, one monthly fee.

    Capture

    Branded portal in your colours.

    Drop in your logo, set your accent colour, write your welcome line. Live in five minutes.

    Recognise

    Regulars skip the form.

    Recognised devices auto-connect. You see who's a regular without anyone retyping their email.

    Comply

    GDPR done properly.

    Marketing opt-in always unticked. Soft delete, audit trail, UK hosted. No extra paperwork.

    Sync

    Straight into Mailchimp.

    Opted-in guests land in your audience automatically. Klaviyo and HubSpot on the way.

    Hardware

    FlowBox plugs in once.

    Works alongside UniFi and Meraki, or stands alone for venues without a managed network.

    Insight

    See who's actually coming back.

    Visit counts, peak hours, return rates. The numbers your accountant won't show you.

    02 / Pick your hardware

    Two FlowBoxes.
    Whichever fits your venue.

    FlowBox comes in two variants. Both run the same captive portal, capture the same data, and feed the same dashboard. The difference is whether you're starting fresh or working with what you've already got.

    FlowBox Solo

    All-in-one for venues without managed WiFi.

    "Plug it in. Done."

    FlowBox Solo is its own access point. It powers up, broadcasts a guest WiFi network, and runs the captive portal — no other equipment needed. Ideal for small pubs, cafés, pop-ups, and any venue running on basic ISP routers.

    Good if you

    • →Have no managed WiFi controller
    • →Want a single device that does it all
    • →Need under 30 concurrent guests

    FlowBox Pro

    Integrates with your existing managed network.

    "Adds the marketing layer."

    FlowBox Pro slots into your existing UniFi, Meraki, or other managed controller. Your access points keep doing what they do — Pro adds the captive portal, the email capture, and the dashboard on top. No rip and replace.

    Good if you

    • →Run UniFi, Meraki, or similar
    • →Need unlimited concurrent guests
    • →Operate multiple sites or larger venues

    No setup fees.
    No nasty surprises.
