Question 1

How does WavutiPay automate M-Pesa payments for MikroTik Hotspots in Kenya?

Accepted Answer

When a user connects to your MikroTik WiFi hotspot, the captive portal opens automatically. They select an internet package (e.g., 1 Hour, 24 Hours, Weekly, Monthly) and enter their M-Pesa phone number. WavutiPay triggers an instant Safaricom Daraja STK Push prompt on their phone. Once they enter their M-Pesa PIN, WavutiPay receives the webhook confirmation and connects the user online in under 2 seconds.

Question 2

Do I need a static public IP address for my MikroTik router to use WavutiPay?

Accepted Answer

No. WavutiPay includes an automated WireGuard VPN tunnel and zero-touch RouterOS bootstrap script that traverses Starlink, Safaricom 4G/5G, Faiba, and other CGNAT connections without requiring an expensive static public IP.

Question 3

Does WavutiPay support both MikroTik RouterOS v6 and RouterOS v7?

Accepted Answer

Yes. WavutiPay supports both MikroTik RouterOS v6 (via native API port 8728/8729) and RouterOS v7.1+ (via HTTPS REST API and WireGuard).

Question 4

Can landlords and apartment owners use WavutiPay to monetize building WiFi?

Accepted Answer

Yes. WavutiPay features built-in multi-tenant property management and automated M-Pesa revenue-share splits. Landlords and ISP partners get a dedicated dashboard to track live daily collections, active room vouchers, and automated mobile money settlements.
