​Remote workers staying at cafe all day and buying one Coffee

Hey, cafe owners! I wanted to run an idea by you and see if there’s any interest.

We all know customers who come in, buy a single coffee, and then set up shop for hours, taking up space and using the wifi. It’s a tricky situation because no one wants to make people feel unwelcome, but this can limit space for other paying customers.

The Solution: What if there was a “plug and play” feature that integrates directly with your POS and wifi system? With each purchase, the customer gets a unique wifi code printed on their receipt, granting them 1-2 hours of wifi access. When the time expires, so does the code, prompting them to make another purchase if they’d like to stay longer.

This way, customers naturally move along or buy another item without any awkward conversations.

Would this be something you’d be interested in for your cafe? Curious to hear your thoughts!

EDIT: Not sure if this is just in my city but I see many cafes that say now laptops, no meetings, time limits for seating etc. (not sure if that’s because of people staying too long)
