In order for guests to access the Internet through your CheckBox System they have to
be authenticated. There are several ways your guests can authenticate, including:
Access Tickets
PermaCodes
Credit Cards and PayPal
Free Access
In addition to these methods your CheckBox can also be tied to your company loyalty
card rewards program and integrated into point-of-sale systems. For more information
on integrating CheckBox with loyalty programs and point-of-sale systems please contact
CheckBox Support.
The system will automatically generate the appropriate buttons and boxes on your
welcome screen; If you have not printed any tickets and have enabled free access and
credit cards, then the system will not display a box to enter access tickets. If you have
not enabled credit card payments or free access and have created tickets then only the
ticket box will be displayed on your welcome screen. If you have not enabled free
access or printed tickets and have enabled credit cards then only the credit card buttons
will be displayed.
Access Tickets
allow you to create and distribute tickets for your guests that allow
them an amount of time online that
you determine. These tickets can be
good for an amount of time ranging
from 15 minutes to one year. You
can give these tickets away or sell
them.
Tickets can only be used by one
device and guest can not share
tickets or re-use them.
To create tickets click on
Access Controls
on the menu at the top.
Select the duration
of the tickets you wish to generate and their expiry date (shelf life) and then click on the
Generate Tickets
button.
A new window will open with a sheet of ten tickets that you can print on a standard
printer. The sheet can be cut up, or you can use standard business card stock (Avery
5870 or equivalent) and the tickets will print on the cards.
If you do not see the window of tickets open after
selecting
Generate Tickets
be sure that you have
pop up blockers disabled or that you allow pop ups
from the site.
The Graphic on the ticket can be changed under
Customize Site
.
