Guest Wi-Fi has become a modern standard. From coffee shops and hotels to retail stores and airports, customers expect easy internet access wherever they go. For businesses, offering Wi-Fi is a small but valuable gesture — a “thank you” for showing up.

But what if that small gesture could offer something in return?

With Infotap’s Wi-Fi survey technology, it can.

Infotap transforms a simple Wi-Fi login into a dynamic interaction — one that captures real-time feedback in seconds. Through gamified, easy-to-answer surveys, you’ll learn what your customers are thinking while they’re still in your space. And the best part? All of this happens through your existing guest Wi-Fi portal.

Why Wi-Fi Surveys Are a Smart Business Move

Your customers connect to your Wi-Fi. Why not use that moment to connect with them?

Most businesses spend time and money chasing feedback through emails, QR codes, review platforms, and outdated satisfaction forms. Unfortunately, response rates are low, and insights often arrive too late to act on.

Infotap flips this feedback model. When a guest logs into your Wi-Fi, they’re greeted with one or two simple, engaging survey questions — not a lengthy form, not a boring list. Just a moment of interactive input that’s actually enjoyable.

Here’s why Wi-Fi surveys work:

  • Built-in visibility: You already know users will see your login screen.
  • High engagement: Gamified formats spark curiosity and make responding feel fun.
  • Timely feedback: Customers answer while their experience is still happening.
  • No added friction: No apps, no accounts, no effort.

Advanced Question Types That Keep People Clicking

Infotap doesn’t just ask better questions — it rethinks the entire experience. Instead of long, clunky surveys, Infotap offers an array of quick, intuitive formats that feel more like a game than a task.

Here are a few survey types you can choose from:

  • Quadrant – Tap one of four visual tiles for rapid feedback.
  • Waffle – Choose multiple options to capture broad preferences.
  • Bubble – Rank items based on interest or performance.
  • Binary – Simple yes/no or like/dislike interactions.
  • Orbit – Drag-and-drop responses for highly visual insights.
  • Rating – Use sliders or emoji-based scales for sentiment.
  • Honeycomb – Ask for demographic data in a visual, user-friendly format.
  • Open Text – Invite longer-form input for specific topics.

 

These formats are optimized for mobile and designed to collect data quickly, without losing depth.
