Most ISP billing tools fall into one of two camps: generic accounting software that has no idea what a MikroTik router or a RADIUS session even is, or sprawling enterprise telecom platforms built for operators with hundreds of thousands of subscribers and dedicated IT departments. Neither fits an ISP running a few hundred to a few thousand PPPoE and hotspot clients across a handful of routers. XpressRADIUS was built to fill that specific gap.
Built from a real deployment, not designed in the abstract
XpressRADIUS didn't start as a spec document — it started as the billing and RADIUS system running a real, working Kenyan ISP's day-to-day operations: real PPPoE subscribers, real hotspot vouchers, real M-Pesa and Kopo Kopo payments, real MikroTik routers being authorized and disconnected live. Every feature exists because an actual ISP needed it to run its network, not because it looked good on a roadmap.
What it actually does
- PPPoE and hotspot billing, side by side. Subscription clients with recurring packages and prepaid hotspot vouchers both run from the same dashboard, instead of two disconnected systems.
- Real-time RADIUS control. Authentication, accounting, and bandwidth limits are enforced live against your MikroTik routers — no manual login to a router required to disconnect an expired client or reconnect a paying one.
- Kenyan payment methods, natively. M-Pesa and Kopo Kopo are wired directly into the billing flow — a client's payment automatically triggers renewal and reconnection.
- A live operational dashboard. Revenue, active and expired clients, bandwidth usage, and upcoming renewals in one place, updated in real time rather than pulled from a report you have to generate.
- A self-care customer portal. Subscribers can check their own usage, pay their own bills, and manage their own profile — without calling in.
- Your own branding. Both the customer portal and the hotspot captive portal carry your ISP's own logo and colours, not XpressRADIUS's.
Built for growth, not just day one
XpressRADIUS is cloud-hosted, so there's no server for an ISP to install, patch, or back up themselves. And because it's built directly on top of MikroTik and RADIUS — the same tools most Kenyan ISPs already run — onboarding doesn't mean replacing your network, just connecting your existing routers to a system that can finally automate the billing and enforcement work happening behind them.
Whether an ISP is running purely PPPoE, purely prepaid hotspot vouchers, or a mix of both — and whether the access technology behind it is fibre, fixed wireless, or a combination — the goal is the same: replace manual disconnect calls, spreadsheet reconciliation, and guesswork about who's actually paid, with one system that handles it automatically.
