Prepaid User (Login) Cards

Prepaid User cards carry a ready-made username and password. They are typically used for Hotspot or for selling short packages through shops: the customer just types the username and password on their device.

How they work

  1. Generate the cards with Type Prepaid User and select the Profile (see Generating Cards).
  2. Print and sell them.
  3. The first time a card logs in, SAS Radius creates the subscriber account (owned by the card owner) and activates it on the card's profile.
  4. From then on, the card user is a normal subscriber in the Users List and expires according to the profile.

Good to know

  • The cost (the manager's price for the profile × quantity) is charged when the cards are generated.
  • Simultaneous Sessions limits how many devices can use the same card at once.
  • Expired card users can be cleaned up from Tools → Maintenance → Delete Expired Card Users (system administrators). Only expired card users on profiles with Limit Expiration are deleted.
  • Login cards need the card login module in the RADIUS server. If you use only Refill cards, ask Snono support whether it can be turned off to make logins faster on busy servers.
