Solutions — Estate & hotspot ISP

Estate WiFi that collects itself

You serve hundreds of units off shared infrastructure — home plans in the flats, hotspot in the common areas, M-Pesa everywhere. CoreSync runs the collections loop end to end, and hotspot users cost you nothing until they pay you.

Sound like you? You run connectivity for apartment blocks, gated estates or public spaces. Your subscriber count is high relative to your hardware: one building riser and a handful of ONUs serve hundreds of households, and walk-up hotspot traffic spikes with the season. Revenue is many small M-Pesa payments, and the month is won or lost on how well renewals collect.

The week, before and after

What actually changes

Running it by hand

  • Renewal day means a printed list and someone manually disconnecting non-payers
  • M-Pesa reconciliation is an evening with two phones and a spreadsheet
  • A voucher sold at the gate shop is invisible until the cash is counted
  • December's hotspot crowd is pure stress — more users, same manual process

On CoreSync

  • Expiry suspends the session itself; the payment restores it in seconds — no list, no evening shift
  • STK Push and C2B land on your paybill and reconcile to the account automatically, idempotently
  • Vouchers are generated, tracked and settled in the same wallet as home plans
  • December costs you nothing extra: hotspot users are KES 0 — CoreSync takes 3% of what they actually pay you

Basic covers what this estate runs on day to day: PPPoE and static billing, M-Pesa, RADIUS, SMS reminders and the subscriber portal. The hotspot share is worked out on what the hotspot actually collected. CRM, in the stack above, is a Premium module — the last line shows what the same users would cost on Premium.

Getting there

The rollout, step by step

Day 1

Tenant live, paybill connected

Your subdomain is created, M-Pesa Daraja is pointed at your own paybill, and plans are configured to match what you sell today.

Week 1

Subscribers imported, enforcement on

Your subscriber list comes in through the streamed bulk import. Suspend/restore goes live — from here, billing state controls the network.

Month 1

Hotspot switched on

Voucher batches for the shops, STK walk-up access in the common areas, reminders tuned — and your first monthly invoice: your active users on Basic, plus the hotspot share.
