Why venues start looking for a Beambox alternative

You didn't sign up for software. You signed up for results — more returning guests, more reviews, more revenue from people already walking through your door.

No UK-first pricing, support, or focus
Billing complaints reported after cancellation
Limited reporting and template customisation
Costs stacking up on top of monthly rental

You're not alone. These are the exact reasons venue operators contact us every week.

"Since using GuestiFi at Genevieve's Café, it has made a real difference to how we connect with our customers. It's been a simple and effective way to capture customer details and build our mailing list."

What "managed" actually means

We sell outcomes, not logins

Most WiFi marketing platforms hand you a dashboard and wish you luck. Guestifi is different.

Managed onboarding
Our team handles setup — hardware config, portal design, your first automations. Live and capturing data from day one, not day sixty.
Included in every plan
UK support that picks up
Not a ticket queue in a timezone you've never heard of. Our team knows UK hospitality, speaks your language, and treats your venue like it matters.
Works with your existing kit
20+ hardware vendors supported. Keep your Meraki, Ubiquiti, or TP-Link — no ripping out infrastructure, no proprietary hardware spend.
Marketing that runs while you sleep
Email campaigns, SMS sequences, automated review requests — set up once, they keep working. Right message, right guest, right time.
Turn WiFi into your best ad channel
Connect direct to Meta and Google Ads. Retarget your actual venue visitors. Sync to Mailchimp, HubSpot, or Klaviyo with zero fuss.
Clear, honest pricing
Published on our website. No "call for a quote". No surprises on your invoice. You know exactly what you're paying and what you're getting.

Venues with existing hardware who don't want to re-invest just to access better software
Guestifi might not be the right fit if
We'd rather be honest than waste your time
You're a 500+ site enterprise group with a full in-house tech team and dedicated IT procurement
