Centipid keeps billing simple with two plans that map directly to the access method you monetize. Both plans are available to every account by default—you’re only charged for PPPoE when subscribers are created, and hotspot fees only accrue when you enable hotspot packages and customers buy them. You can switch emphasis or run both simultaneously depending on your network footprint.

​
Hotspot plan

  • 3% of hotspot revenue.
  • Unlimited MikroTik routers and hotspots.
  • Unlimited operators and staff accounts.
  • Remote Winbox relay, automated provisioning, and captive portal management included.
  • Works with all supported payment and SMS gateways plus voucher management.
  • Best for Wi-Fi cafes, estate Wi-Fi, shared venues, multi-tenant buildings, hospitality Wi-Fi, and campus/estate community networks.

​
PPPoE plan

  • $0.25 per active subscriber each month – predictable per-user pricing.
  • Unlimited MikroTik routers, VLANs, and PPPoE secrets.
  • Automated invoicing, automated payments, and real-time notifications.
  • Multiple payment gateways, SMS/email alerts, and equipment tracking included.
  • Ideal for WISPs or fiber ISPs that sell recurring subscriptions.
