FAQ
What does a host location look like?
Examples of a host location can be a residence, business, cabin, AirBnB, treehouse, billboard, apartment building, office building, skyscraper, grain silo, fencepost, water tank, henhouse, farmhouse, outhouse, etc.
How much can a hotspot host earn?
Results vary, but good locations typically earn $50-$1,000 per month for the host.
How often would I get paid?
West Coast Hotspots pays its hosts on a monthly basis.
What do I need to provide?
A host provides a location for the hotspot. This location should be near a mounting point for a small outdoor antenna, such as on a patio cover or roof eave. The hotspot also needs a power outlet to plug in to.
How big is the hotspot?
The hotspot equipment is about the size of a lunchbox and the outdoor antenna can range in size from a few inches to a few feet long. Between the hotspot hardware and the antenna, it's similar to having DirecTV installed.
What is IoT?
IoT is the "internet of things." It includes small devices and sensors, such as temperature sensors, motion sensors, air quality monitors, GPS locators, etc. These small devices can be on stationary or in moving objects, like vehicles, cargo containers, weather stations, vending machines (to track temperature and inventory), rental equipment, rental bikes and scooters - there's even a growing dog collar tracker app to help locate lost dogs.
How does a hotspot help with IoT?
These IoT devices are low power and they need to send small amounts of data to their owners. These devices need a close-by antenna that can receive that data. Our hotspots listen for this data and send it to the owner, such as cargo shipping companies, the scooter/bike rental company, etc.
