WiFi is now recognized as a powerful tool for venues to retain customers and increase the time they spend on premises. In a recent survey, 62% of the business owners surveyed said that customers spent more time in their shop facility once WiFi was available.

First of all, offering a WiFi network within your venue is a real plus and allows you to enhance your customer’s experience, but it is also a way to get more information about your clientele thanks to the data capture. Indeed Tanaza enables the Social Login, an authentication process through social media like Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Instagram etc.

As soon as your customers connect to the WiFi, their data are collected. All these information are stored on your online dashboard: gender, age, location, phone number, email address.  We strongly recommend you to use a permission-based approach by offering your customers the ability to opt-in.   Once you know better your customers, you will be able to engage them through personalised email newsletters, targeting a specific segment to adapt your offer and promote your events. Inform your customers and keep contact with them to encourage them to come back in your venue.
