Nomadix Earns Patent for Enhancing Passpoint (Hotspot 2.0) with Loyalty Program Integrations

Enabling Digital Engagement and Tiered, Location-Based Services for Visitor-Based Networks

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Nomadix® Inc., bringing connected experiences to life, was issued U.S. Patent No. 11,855,986 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on December 26, 2023. The patent, titled "Management of network intercept portals for network devices with durable and non-durable identifiers," represents Nomadix's ongoing innovations in networking technology and adds to its growing patent portfolio.

The patent relates to using captive portals to securely manage network access requests under Passpoint, formerly known as Hotspot 2.0. Nomadix's technology gives hotels and other organizations greater control and visibility over their visitor-based networks, helping drive digital engagement and deliver customized, location-based services and tiered upgrade options. For example, venues leveraging visitor-based networks can offer Passpoint through loyalty apps to offer secure connections to the network, while also enabling better engagement, upselling, tiered service offerings (i.e., events, Wi-Fi upgrades), and payment acceptance throughout the guest's stay at the property.

"Nomadix has a long history of innovation including the invention of the visitor-based network and creation of the first captive portal," said Ted Helvey, chairman and CEO at Nomadix. "This latest patent is of similar importance in the next generation of secure authentication and shows our team's continued commitment to creating technology that provides personalized connectivity and digital engagement opportunities for our customers in hospitality, multi-tenant, retail and beyond."

The patent, part of Nomadix's growing network management portfolio, is based on an application filed in February 2020 by inventor Vadim Olshansky. For more information, visit the USPTO website.
