Skywave is locally owned and operated. Our partnerships show that we value local businesses and residents. We are here, on-island and on-site to assist you when you need us. Besides local technicians, we also provide a 24/7 call center that can assist customers at any time of the day or night.
Increased Revenue
Wireless hotspots provide a location-based service that drives customers to your door.
Customers enjoy the effortless high-speed connectivity to surf the web, check email, connect to their corporate network and will improve customer retention, as your location becomes a comfortable, functional place to return to again and again.
Measurable Results
Skywave's Access Passes allow temporary access for WiFi users. You can distribute these passes with a purchase or for free. You can customize how long your customers receive access and make certain you aren't providing a "free lunch" for outside users. Your customer will start surfing using Skywave's Access Pass. Passes can be cusomized for each hotspot location.
Customized Branding
Skywave partners are given the opportunity to add their location's advertising directly to the homepage that users see when they log into the network. The location is able to "own" their wireless signal unlike free networks where users don't know where a signal is originating.
Seamless Installation
Our trained staff of professionals will conduct extensive onsite surveys to plan your installation. We then use customizable antennae and antennae casings to create minimal to no visual impact on your establishment. Depending on your location we are able to tap directly into our own wireless network use your existing infrastructure to deliver our WiFi service. We guarantee that our installation will not impact your current internet connection.
