When it comes to stadiums, festivals, campuses and large venues, Wi-Fi is under pressure and often not up keeping up with requirements or crowd demand.
Resellers are increasingly being asked to provide high-performing Wi-Fi, from venue owners and operators. And, they don’t just want reliable connectivity, they’re looking for ways to monetise and leverage data-driven networks.
We offer Weblib Ucopia, a powerful large-scale Wi-Fi for stadiums and large venues, offering more than just a reliable connection. In this blog, we’ll dive into what Weblib Ucopia offers, the problems it solves with large-scale Wi-Fi deployment, how you can pitch it, and why it is ideal for your customers in stadiums, retail, airports and more.
Why traditional stadium Wi-Fi fails large venues
Many stadium Wi-Fi solutions can’t cope with the demands of a busy crowd, and they collapse under high-bandwidth load. Plus, one single access point struggles to serve thousands of devices.
With guests complaining about slow streaming or dropped connections, venues have dissatisfied customers, struggling to keep fans happy. It’s important to remember that operational systems (such as security, payments, broadcasting) share the same network – and they’re all fighting for connections.
As an MSP, you’ll likely be inheriting the connectivity and flat networks with no segmentation or prioritisation. When guest Wi-Fi fails to offer monetisation or analytics, venue owners see it as a cost, not an asset. Weblib Ucopia fills this valuable gap.
What is Weblib Ucopia for high-density venue networks
So, let’s get into the nitty gritty of what Weblib Ucopia has to offer. This network software platform is designed for high-density venue Wi-Fi solutions. It gives you, the reseller, the tools to offer premium services to your customers’ end users.
From zoned control and bandwidth throttling to analytics and monetisation layers, it supports deployments in stadiums, airports, shopping centres, campuses, festivals and more.
Ucopia allows your customers to offer the guarantee of reliable, performance-boosted Wi-Fi, wherever they choose, even at peak load. That makes your offer much stronger.
Network segmentation: pitch control and priority to operations
One core strength of Weblib Ucopia is network segmentation. Easily partition the network by zone (for instance hospitality, vendor areas, security, guest) or by device class. Within each zone, you can implement designated bandwidth, rules and priorities. What does this mean for your client and their customers? Essential venues services (broadcast, security, payments) get guaranteed throughput, and special areas (such as boxes, get boosted connections).
From a sales angle, you can pitch: “Your operations will never be slowed by guest traffic.” That differentiator helps close deals in competitive bids and can be a great tool for businesses to have control and flexibility over their Wi-Fi connection.
Wi-Fi monetisation: create revenue streams for clients
Wi-Fi isn’t just about connectivity, it can also be a valuable Wi-Fi monetisation tool. With Weblib Ucopia, you can build captive portals offering tiered guest access (free basic, paid premium etc). You can also present ads, promotions or sponsorship branding on login pages.
Do your customers want to upsell faster guest speeds? Ucopia can offer that too.
For your customers, it turns Wi-Fi from a cost drain into something much more appealing – a revenue centre, just another way that Weblib makes your solution more attractive and stickier. And who isn’t interested in extra revenue potential?
Guest analytics and location-based marketing
We all know the value of data, and Weblib Ucopia is tapping into this goldmine with anonymised analytics. Think crowd heatmaps, dwell time and movement flows.
Your customers can use this data to optimise retail, concession layouts, and even sponsorship offers. Deliver geotargeted promotions (“Head to stand C, get 15% off popcorn”) via captive portal or the guest app, a hub that gathers all the data easily and simply.
It’s a valuable addition to any pitch, as you can highlight that venues get insight they never had before, that offers future potential. These insights can generate ROI and pay back the Wi-Fi investment, making it a very savvy Wi-Fi solution.
Proven at scale: stadiums, retail, airports
Your team knows the importance of selling credible, proven solutions. Weblib Ucopia is already in use at major sites: Parc des Princes (PSG), French National Stadium, Disneyland Paris, Celtic Park and large retail chains like Sainsbury’s. These use cases help reassure your clients that the performance definitely outweighs the upfront investment.
Why Weblib Ucopia is the ideal Wi-Fi partner for large scale sites
Weblib Ucopia is a relatively simple solution to deploy and manage, but you’ll be adding value beyond pure hardware.
You’ll be able to build recurring revenue via licensing, support, premium modules, analytics packages and monetisation features. With customers gaining direct financial benefits from the network, your solution becomes indispensable, and there’s a lot of potential to support them as they grow and scale.
