Woodpecker Networks
Live & onboarding new venues

Secure guest WiFi that pays for itself

The Woodpecker Portal is a fully branded guest WiFi platform for pubs and venues — already running at real sites, with encrypted infrastructure, built-in content filtering, and a marketing tool guests genuinely opt into.

Talk to us about onboarding your venue
We'll only ever email you if you ask us to — see our Privacy Policy below.
Security & compliance, not an afterthought

Every venue's traffic and data is handled the same careful way — this isn't optional configuration, it's how the platform is built.

Encrypted site-to-site tunnels
Every router connects back to our infrastructure over its own dedicated WireGuard tunnel, not the open internet.
Content filtering by default
DNS-level filtering aligned with the Friendly WiFi / IWF standard is switched on for every venue, with DNS-over-HTTPS/TLS bypass blocked so it can't be sidestepped.
GDPR-aligned guest data
Guest details are only ever collected with clear, optional consent — connecting to WiFi is never conditional on it. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
Responsible email practice
Every marketing email carries one-click unsubscribe and standards-compliant headers. Bounce and complaint feedback is monitored automatically, per venue, with sending paused instantly if a venue trips a safety threshold.
You hold the money
Payments settle directly into each venue's own Stripe account. Woodpecker Networks never stores or touches card details.
TLS everywhere
Every admin console, API endpoint and login page is served over TLS with proper certificates — nothing sensitive travels in plain text.
Everything a venue needs, nothing they don't
Get paid, not just give away
Offer a free tier alongside paid premium tiers guests can upgrade to, without Woodpecker ever holding the money.
Stay legally covered
Default content filtering helps protect your business from what guests can access over your connection.
Marketing tool add-on
Opted-in guest emails are captured at sign-in, ready to use whenever you want to send offers back to people who've already walked through your door.
Fully branded to you
Your name, your colours, your logo, your welcome message. Guests connect to your venue, not to a third party.
One simple dashboard
Guest numbers, router health, and staff device access, all managed from a single screen. No technical know-how required.
Set up for you
We provision and configure the router for your venue — you don't need to touch any networking equipment yourself.
