Events & Festivals WiFi that lifts work off your team.
Every password reset, portal complaint and "is the WiFi down?" call is time someone could have spent on the work you actually hired them for. The network should answer those before they reach a human.
Crew credentials issued for a weekend that are still live months later.
The tickets that never get raised, and the faults you see before anyone phones about them.
What already works for operations & facilities
The same branded login, whether it is bolted to a wall or standing on a field — and the people who opt in are yours to contact again.
Wired into the systems you already run
Bolt-ons that pay their way
Purple’s Paid WiFi, Insight Surveys and AI Shield are real revenue, research and safety layers. Beyond can wire them into your systems — one question at the login while the visit is still fresh, a premium tier where the free one will not carry everybody, and filtering that keeps a network anyone can join appropriate for all of them.
What we do with it
We wrote our own HMAC-signed client for Purple’s Company API and run it in production — webhooks for live capture, plus a nightly sweep that reconciles whatever the stream missed. Every outbound message passes one consent gate, so POPIA is enforced in the send path rather than on the policy page.
A key that knows the booking
Purple gives every crew, contractor or partner a private network of their own, separate from the public one. Beyond can tie that key’s whole life to your site records — opened when they arrive and closed when the job ends, so temporary access is never the thing left switched on.
Five zones, five owners
The same five zones the city map shows for your site — and the department that owns each one.
Gates & box office
The crowd is recognised on the way in, not queued at a desk.

Coverage across open ground with nothing to mount it on.
Owned by IT & network

Card machines on their own lane, away from public WiFi.

Contractor access that expires when the build does.

Proven platform, deployed by people you can meet in person
Purple runs the guest WiFi for some of the biggest names in retail, banking, hospitality and sport. Beyond's own team deploys it, integrates it and supports it from South Africa. Your events run on that team.
