Guest Wi-Fi built exclusively for coffee shops
Your Wi-Fi is costing you money.
It should be making it.
Your customers come for the coffee and stay for the Wi-Fi. Turn those visits into valuable customer insights, a growing mailing list, and marketing that brings people back.

What it does for your shop
Three things your Wi-Fi should be doing for you.
Most coffee shops give away Wi-Fi and get nothing back. Barista WiFi turns it into three things you can use every week.
Know your customers
Know who walks through your door.
Right now, most people on your Wi-Fi are strangers to you. With Barista WiFi they join through a sign-in page with your logo and colors, and depending on what you ask for (a name, an email address, a phone number) you start to know who they are. Guests who say yes to hearing from you become your own contact list.
- A sign-in page that looks like your shop, not a router's login screen.
- You choose what guests share: a single tap, an email address, a phone number, or an access code.
- Regulars are recognized and connect without signing in again.
Understand your regulars
See who keeps coming back.
Your dashboard turns Wi-Fi sign-ins into plain answers about your shop: how many people came in, how many came back, how often your regulars visit, how long they stay, and which days and hours are busiest. Use it to plan staffing, time a special, or notice when a regular has gone quiet.
- Returning guests, and how often they visit.
- How long people stay on your Wi-Fi.
- Your busiest days and hours, at a glance.
- A weekly or monthly report emailed to you, if you want one.
Bring customers back
Bring them back, without the busywork.
Your list works for you in the background. New guests get a welcome email. Regulars you haven't seen in a while get a friendly note. Loyal guests are asked for a Google review after the number of visits you choose. When you have news, send it to everyone, or only to the guests it suits. No spreadsheets and no copying lists by hand.
- Welcome, come-back and review-request emails that run on their own.
- One-off campaigns, sent to everyone or to a group you pick.
- Every email in your shop's logo and colors, sent only to guests who agreed to hear from you.
- Already use Klaviyo? Send new sign-ins straight to your Klaviyo list.
Done for you
All the benefits. None of the technical headache.
You run the coffee shop. We handle the Wi-Fi. Every plan includes setup and a real person to call, so you never have to touch a network setting.
We set up the hardware
We configure your access point before it ships, or set up the business-grade Wi-Fi equipment you already have. You plug it in.
We personalize your sign-in page
Send us your logo and colors. We build your sign-in page and show it to you before guests ever see it.
We help with the install
We stay on the phone while you plug it in. Most shops are up and running in about ten minutes.
You get personal help
Questions later? Call (888) 302-6831 and talk to a person who knows your setup, not a ticket queue.
Coworking memberships
Your customers already work from your coffee shop. Let that work for your business.
Every coffee shop knows the laptop regular who buys one coffee and stays for hours. What if those long visits could generate predictable monthly revenue? With Barista WiFi, you can offer a paid coworking membership with dedicated Wi-Fi access, automatic billing, and a branded member experience, while keeping regular guest Wi-Fi available to everyone.
Nobody gets pushed out. Guests who don't want a membership keep using your guest Wi-Fi, just like today.
You set the plans
Pick the monthly price, and the speed and number of devices each member gets.
Members get their own network
A separate members-only Wi-Fi network with your branding. Each member signs up on a page in your shop's look.
Billing is handled for you
Members pay by card every month. Receipts, failed cards and member questions are taken care of, and your earnings go to your own Stripe account.
Security
Your guest Wi-Fi shouldn't put your business network at risk.
Your register, business devices, and guest internet access shouldn't all share the same unrestricted network. Barista WiFi helps you set up a safer guest connection, with access controls, terms of service, and connection records, all configured for your shop.
With the hardware we provide, we set all of this up for you. Using your own business-grade equipment? We'll go through which protections it supports when we set you up. Either way, it's included in your plan.
Free, no email required
Not sure how safe your Wi-Fi is today?
Take the Cafe Wi-Fi Safety Check. Start with the five questions that matter most, about a minute, or take all twenty-one for a score out of 100. Every gap comes with the fix, and there is nothing to sign up for.

We provide the hardware at no charge: the access point is ours, on loan to you while you subscribe. Shipping, setup, and getting your sign-in page exactly the way you want it are all free. Two weeks free, and a full refund if you cancel in the first 30 days of paid service.
Who we are
A company built around one “outdated” concept.
Customer service.
I spent the last ten years selling to enterprise clients of every shape. Airlines, banks, hotel chains, global retailers. The accounts everyone fought over. The whole time, it was about the next big deal. Never about whether the customer was actually happy.
So I walked away and built something different. Barista WiFi is a company built around one idea: radical, extreme customer service. More help, more features, for one fair price. We sell guest Wi-Fi, but that's not really our product. Our product is caring about our customers and treating them like family.
When you book a demo, you meet directly with the person who builds and supports Barista WiFi: me. Before this, I worked at IronWiFi, so I know guest Wi-Fi from the inside, and I'll tell you plainly whether it's right for your shop.

Common questions
Quick answers.
Your Wi-Fi should be your hardest-working employee.
