Is Piso WiFi still profitable in 2022?

Despite the entry of a new telco player in the country and the abundance of discounted pocket WiFi or modem devices, there will always be underserved individuals who cannot afford them.

Not all local governments have free mobile data or WiFi connection programs, so you need to target these areas for the marketing of Piso WiFi.

The tingi culture will always be ingrained in most Filipinos despite the promotions of affordable no-expiry internet or unli data that can last you for a month or more.

Since the economy is starting to recover from the pandemic, both PisoNet and Piso WiFi businesses can thrive because the key to earning with both is the volume of customers.

What is the maintenance cost for Piso WiFi machines?

Unless you experience some disasters such as flooding or earthquake that can cause physical damage to your Piso WiFi, there is virtually no maintenance cost for it.

The companies that sell these devices have already done the research and testing, and they also don’t make it from scratch since the parts are already available.

Unless you made the machine yourself using sourced parts, the only thing you need to worry about is the internet connection.

Should I put up a Piso WiFi machine on my store premise?

Free WiFi is sometimes an attraction, but sometimes it is also just an add-on to customers’ dining or shopping experience.

To truly understand your customers, you can ask them to fill out a survey or leave feedback.

If you are one of those establishments with free WiFi but have a poor connection due to many users, Piso WiFi can be an excellent option for you and your customers.

You can set up a first-come, first-served basis for the free WiFi then the rest can still enjoy a decent or even faster connection using the Piso WiFi.

If people can spend more money on their purchase, availing the Piso WiFi is not too much.

It can also increase the foot traffic to your store, leading to actual sales of your main products.

In short, you can treat it as an immediate source of income or as an investment.

How to improve the security of Piso WiFi

Like any piece of technology, your Piso WiFi could be subjected to digital attacks.

To avoid this, you should keep your operating software up to date and ensure that admin access is secured.

However, technical security does not protect your asset from physical attacks, so you still need to check your device or have it covered by a security camera to avert theft.

Just because your Piso WiFi machine can operate independently doesn’t mean you should leave it be.

On the other end, you can secure yourself as a customer of the Piso WiFi connection.

By using the Piso WiFi with other connected customers, you are effectively on the same WiFi network, and it is therefore considered public.

You can secure your connection by using VPN software and keeping your device’s OS up to date and patched for vulnerabilities.
