What will determine how much I earn?
This can get pretty complicated, but to quote every realtor ever, the 3 most important things are location, location, and location. The higher up you are (condos/apartments are great), and the less obstructions you have around you (big trees or buildings), the bigger an area you’ll help cover with the network, and the more you’ll earn. Once you apply we’ll plan the optimal setup for your given location and needs. Want to keep it simple? Great, just the hotspot in your windowsill it is. Want to really step up your game? We can do a bigger setup with a small antenna outside your window or on your balcony to maximize the range of your hotspot — And as always, we pay for EVERYTHING.
I'm worried about it connecting to my Wifi and keeping my data protected
All network hotspots are designed to only transmit data relevant to the network, and there have been no issues with the nearly 20,000 hotspots already deployed to the network. At no point does a bloone hotspot get access to any of your network traffic or data, nor will it ever. Data privacy is important to us, and we will continue to value the trust you put in us.
How big is this thing? Is it going to be in the way?
A bloone hotspot is likely smaller than the internet router you have in your home. It’s about the size of a bagel if your bagel had an antenna and wires sticking out of it. It can be placed on your windowsill or mounted out of the way in the top corner of your window with the damage-less mounting strips we provide. ~CLICK HERE FOR SOME PICS!~
Will this use up all my data?
Not even close! A hotspot uses less than 1% of the data per second that it takes to stream a youtube video. You won’t notice any difference in speeds or data usage.
How much electricity will this use?
Our hotspots use about as much electricity as an average lightbulb.
Are bloone hotspots safe?
The radio waves bloone hotspots emit are no different from the wifi or cell signals all around you. All hotspots are fully certified to comply with government standards and are completely safe. As long as you don’t try to take a bite out of your hotspot, there’s nothing to worry about.
How are payments sent?
As always, we try to keep things simple. We pay out direct to your bank account. At most, this will require a one time, 5 minute setup, and then you're good to go.
