StayFi Alternative: WiFi Marketing for Vacation Rentals

Capturing guest emails from your WiFi is one of the best direct-booking tactics there is. You don’t need proprietary hardware to do it.

How WiFi marketing works

A branded captive portal asks guests for a name and email (with opt-in) before they get online, so you capture every guest — not just the booker — and build a direct-booking list.

The alternative to StayFi

StayFi is a capable platform, but it starts at $19/month and steers you toward its own hardware. BetterSTR’s WiFi marketing does the same job from $7/month (then $2 per additional property), works with the UniFi, Omada or Mikrotik gear you already own — or a cheap Raspberry Pi — and drops guests onto your real guidebook, not a dead-end splash page.
