Everything you need to know about turning your business Wi-Fi into a revenue stream
💡 The Basics
Think of us as the middleman between your business and cell phone companies. We install a special Wi-Fi access point at your location that lets customers' phones connect automatically and securely.
When their phones use your internet instead of the cell tower, the carriers pay us - and we share that revenue with you. It's like hosting a mini cell tower that actually pays you back.
The decentralized network we are deploying is called Helium. Helium handles contracts with the big carriers, and 2nd Element deploy the hardware and manage revenue sharing.
Cell towers are expensive nightmares. They cost millions to build, take years to get approved, and struggle to provide good service indoors. Plus, they're constantly overloaded.
By using your Wi-Fi connection, carriers get better coverage for their customers while saving massive amounts on infrastructure. They'd rather pay you a few hundred dollars than spend millions on another tower.
Passpoint is like Wi-Fi that works as smoothly as cellular service. Your customers don't need to find a network, enter a password, or click through any screens - their phones just connect automatically when they walk in.
It was created by the major carriers specifically to solve the coverage problem. Think of it as the "professional grade" version of Wi-Fi that actually talks to cell phone companies.
💰 Money & Earnings
Guaranteed minimum: $300 in your first year
$100 in your first 90 days + $200 over the next 9 months
But many locations earn much more. Busy spots like coffee shops, bars, and restaurants can earn $1,000+ annually. It depends on how much foot traffic you have and how long people stay.
The beauty is there's no cap - the more your location is used, the more you earn.
Payments are made monthly based on actual or forcasted usage. We track everything automatically and send you detailed reports so you can see exactly how your location is performing.
You can choose how you prefer to get paid. We're flexible.
Absolutely! We already pledge 2% of our profits to local nonprofits, but you can also choose to direct your earnings to a cause you care about.
Many of our partners love this option because it lets them support their community while still providing better service to their customers.
🔧 Installation & Technical
We handle everything, and it's surprisingly simple:
- Professional installation of a Wi-Fi 6 access point
- Complete setup and testing
- Integration with carrier networks
- Training on how everything works
The whole process typically only takes 30 minutes, and we don't disrupt your existing internet or Wi-Fi at all.
Not at all. Our system runs completely separately from your existing network. Think of it like adding a second, independent Wi-Fi network that doesn't interfere with your business operations.
Your staff devices, POS systems, and current Wi-Fi all continue working exactly as they do now.
More secure than typical Wi-Fi. Our system uses:
- WPA3 encryption (the latest standard)
- Certificate-based authentication (no passwords to steal)
- Complete isolation from your business network
- Professional monitoring and security updates
It's carrier-grade security - the same level that cell companies use for their own networks.

🤝 Community Impact
Instead of all cellular revenue flowing to massive national corporations, you're redirecting thousands of dollars back into your local economy.
When multiple businesses in an area participate, it can shift tens of thousands of dollars annually from big telecom companies to local business owners - money that gets spent locally on employees, suppliers, and community initiatives.
Yes! We pledge 2% of our profits to support local nonprofits in the communities where we operate. We believe in putting money back into the places that make our business possible.
As a participant, you can also choose to donate some or all of your earnings to causes you care about - we'll handle the paperwork.
