Going Beyond Just WiFi

This article first appeared in the Railway-News magazine Issue 5 2021.

Passengers are back in their hoards but are there innovative technological changes awaiting them?

Beginning with your WiFi, WiFi SPARK is here to elevate your offering in a way that streamlines information delivery, provides insightful analytics and makes the running of a station easier than ever before.

WiFi SPARK is a WiFi solutions company which focus on ensuring advanced connectivity as a base and tailoring a package that works to solve the specific pain points of a client whilst encouraging mutual innovation to deliver a cutting-edge WiFi experience for users.

Continuously Connected Passenger Journey

With passengers coming to expect internet connectivity whilst they are mobile, it is considered a fourth utility and is now somewhat of a requirement for any public space. With people living further from their work, looking towards working from home and commuting times getting longer and less frequent, passengers are increasingly looking for more value and to use their time whilst travelling productively, to work or to stay in touch with family and friends.

Digital connectivity on rail has been historically difficult to achieve, passengers have been required to sign in multiple times to different systems when on the move, which can be time consuming for them and frustrating as they travel between trains and stations. WiFi SPARK has developed an innovative product, specifically for the passenger transportation industry, to enable train operating companies (TOC) to deliver continuous connectivity to their passengers, from station to train and back again.

Passengers can sign in once and they will be connected to the internet from the beginning of their journey to the end, without having to log in multiple times. It’s free passenger WiFi, meaning they have the added bonus of not having to use their own data and incur costs.

With single sign-on WiFi, when a passenger has logged in once, the innovative technology will recognise their device and allow them back online automatically with a ‘Welcome Back’ message for the next 365 days.
