3. Create your first packages

1

Add internet packages

From the left menu, click Packages.
  • To get started quickly, click Quick Templates and choose a template that fits how you sell internet (for example Basic Hotspot, Home Internet, Data Bundle).
    Click Use on a template to load it, then adjust the details if needed.
  • Or click Create Package to build a package from scratch:
    • Choose the type of package (Hotspot, PPPoE, Data plan, Free trial, etc.).
    • Enter the name of the package, duration (for example 2 hours, 1 month), and price.
    • Set any speed limits, data limits, and number of devices allowed.
2

(Optional) Set up bundles or trial offers

If you want to offer promotional data bundles or a free trial:
  • Use the Bundles or Trial options (where available) to configure extra offers.
  • Clearly label trial packages so you can recognise them in reports.
3

Advanced features (burst and schedule)

When creating or editing a package, scroll down to the Advanced Features section:
  • Turn Enable burst for this package? to Yes if you want short boosts of extra speed, then set:
    • Burst limit – the maximum burst speed.
    • Burst threshold – when burst should kick in.
    • Burst time – how long burst lasts (in seconds).
  • Turn Enable schedule for this package? to Yes to make the package available only at certain times (for example night packages).
Click Create or Save changes when you’re happy with the settings.
Connecting your MikroTik router lets Centipid automatically provision PPPoE and Hotspot services and monitor device health.
1

Open the MikroTik page

From the left menu, scroll down to the Devices section and click MikroTik.
2

Start linking a new MikroTik

Click Link a MikroTik in the top‑right corner.This opens the Add MikroTik Device wizard with three steps:
  1. Connection – basic device information.
  2. Device Details – provisioning command.
  3. Service Setup – configure PPPoE and Hotspot.
3

Step 1 – Connection

On the Connection step:
  • Enter a clear MikroTik Identity (for example “Shop‑Router‑1”).
Click Next step to continue.
4

Step 2 – Provisioning command

Centipid now shows a green PROVISIONING COMMAND box with a script.
  • Click Click to copy to copy the full command.
  • Open the MikroTik Terminal on your router and paste the command.
  • Wait for the router to download and run the provisioning script.
If the device reports “device mode not allowed”, follow the note under the command:
  • In the MikroTik terminal, run:
/system/device-mode update mode=advanced
  • Unplug the power for 10 seconds, plug it back in, then run the provisioning command again.
When the script completes successfully, you’ll see Device Connected Successfully! in Centipid.

Step 3 – Service setup

On the Service Setup step:
  • Service Types (critical step) – decide whether the router should run PPPoE, Hotspot, or both. This choice controls which packages can be sold through the device, so double-check it before saving.
  • Under Bridge / Interfaces, tick every Ethernet/Wi-Fi port that should carry subscriber traffic (for example ether2–ether5 and wlan1). Leaving a required port unchecked means customers behind that port will never authenticate.
  • Enable Hotspot Anti‑Sharing Protection if you want to prevent customers from sharing a single hotspot account across many devices.
  • (Optional) Turn on Use Custom Subnet Configuration if you need a custom IP range instead of the default 172.31.0.0/16 to match an existing LAN plan.
Click Configure Services to finish. Centipid writes those selections to the MikroTik immediately, so you can start creating PPPoE and Hotspot users right away.

5. Next steps

  • Review all available options in System settings to fine‑tune billing, notifications, and gateways.
  • Share the correct Wi‑Fi network and captive portal with your customers so they can start buying and using internet time.
