Build Your Own WiFi Business in Tanzania and East Africa

Already have internet? Don't let it sit idle — UpesiLipa turns your existing connection into a profitable hotspot business.

🛡️

We are not a payment intermediary

Your customers pay straight into your own payment gateway account, through your own API keys — the money goes directly to you. UpesiLipa never receives, holds or touches it; we only verify that a payment succeeded so we can unlock internet access automatically. Don't have a gateway account yet? Our team guides you through getting one — we assist, we never sit in the middle.

Onboarding requirements

Three things to check off before going live.

📡Required

MikroTik or any RADIUS router

UpesiLipa connects directly to your MikroTik to manage hotspot sessions in real time (RouterOS 6/7). Also works with any RADIUS-compatible router — Ubiquiti/UniFi, TP-Link Omada, Ruijie, Cudy, Ruckus, OpenWrt, Grandstream, and Meraki.

📲Recommended

Payment gateway account

Works with AzamPay, ClickPesa, PalmPesa, Snippe, and more — your own account, your own money, zero delay. Using a different gateway? Share its documentation with us and we'll build support for it. No account yet? Sell vouchers at the counter while we help you set one up.

💬Optional

SMS or WhatsApp

Send payment confirmations and expiry reminders to your customers directly.

UpesiLipa is a cloud-based platform built specifically for MikroTik hotspot environments — perfect for universities, hotels, student hostels, bus stations, markets, cafés, internet cafés, residential estates, community networks and independent WiFi entrepreneurs.

Common questions

Before you ask — the answers.

?Do I need technical skills to run UpesiLipa?

No. Setup takes minutes, not days — connect your MikroTik, add your payment gateway, and the dashboard does the rest. No coding or router scripting required.

?Who holds my customers' money?

You do. Payments go straight into your own payment gateway account through your own API keys — UpesiLipa never receives, holds, or touches the money. We only verify a payment succeeded so access unlocks automatically.

?What if I'm already using another hotspot billing system?

Our technical team migrates your entire setup — MikroTik configuration, customers, vouchers, billing packages — free of charge, with minimal downtime.

?Which routers are supported?

MikroTik natively, plus any RADIUS-compatible router — Ubiquiti/UniFi, TP-Link Omada, Ruijie, Cudy, Ruckus, OpenWrt, Grandstream, and Meraki.

?Which payment gateways do you support?

AzamPay, ClickPesa, PalmPesa, and Snippe — use whichever you already have, or we'll help you set one up. Already on a different gateway? Send us its documentation and we'll build support for it.

?Is there a free plan?

Yes — the Free tier covers 1 router with every feature unlocked, no time limit. Paid tiers (Twiga, Tembo, Simba) unlock more routers and users as you grow.
