Smart Access Control
Triggers any standard 12V or 24V electronic strike, maglock, gate motor or door release. Wires into existing hardware — no rip-and-replace, no proprietary lock.
Built to earn, built to last.
Every feature in WaveGate exists for one reason — to remove the friction between a customer wanting access and an operator getting paid. Here's what's inside the unit and the platform behind it.
Core Features
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Six features that turn a private door into a 24/7 self-serve revenue stream.
Cashless Payments
Tap, chip, mobile wallet and QR — all handled by Nayax. No till, no float, no cash-handling rules to learn. Your customer pays the way they already pay everywhere else.
Time-Window Unlocking
Set a paid session length — 15 minutes, an hour, overnight, whatever fits the use-case. The door releases for the session and re-secures automatically when time is up.
Operator Dashboard
Live transaction view, per-door revenue, settlement schedule and pricing controls — all from a single web dashboard powered by the Nayax back-end.
Dynamic Pricing
Charge peak, off-peak, weekend or promo rates from the dashboard. Push a price change to one site or a whole fleet without sending anyone on site.
Patent-Secured
The integration between the access controller and the payment terminal is patent-protected — a defensible position for channel partners and territory licensees.
How it works
Four steps. Same-day live.
No engineering background required. If you can wire a doorbell, you can install a WaveGate.
-
1
Mount & Wire
Fix the unit at the entry point, connect power and link the relay output to your existing strike or release.
-
2
Activate
Pair the unit to your operator account. Set price, session length and operating hours through the dashboard.
-
3
Customer Pays
Tap, chip, wallet or QR. Payment authorised through Nayax in seconds. WaveGate releases the door.
-
4
Settle & Repeat
Transactions reconcile to your dashboard. Funds settle on the Nayax payment cycle. The unit is ready for the next customer.
Industry Uses
Wherever there's a door and a fee.
WaveGate is hardware-agnostic about what's behind the door. Here's where operators are already deploying it — or actively scoping it.
VIP Rooms
Studios
Gyms
Saunas
Day Spas
Toilets
Workshops
Short-Stay / AirBnB
In detail
Specs an operator actually cares about.
The features that matter on day 30, day 300 and day 3000 of running a fleet.
-
Auto Re-Lock
When the paid session ends, the door automatically secures again. No staff intervention, no risk of a door left propped after hours.
-
Tamper & Fault Alerts
If the unit is tampered with, loses power or the door doesn't return to a secure state, the dashboard raises a flag and an alert is sent.
-
Per-Site & Per-Door Reporting
Drill down to a single door or roll up to a fleet view. See transactions, average session length, peak hours and revenue per site.
-
Multi-Operator Accounts
Built for owners, managers and licensees — assign role-based access so staff see what they need without exposing settlement or pricing controls.
-
Hardware Designed for Public Use
Built for repeated daily use in public-facing locations. Sealed faceplate, vandal-aware enclosure design and a payment terminal rated for unattended deployment.
-
Compliance Inherited from Nayax
Payments compliance — PCI, regional acquiring, KYC — is handled by Nayax. Operators inherit a payments stack that's already audited globally. [Specific certifications confirmed at quote stage based on territory.]
FAQ
The questions operators actually ask.
Anything with a standard electronic release — strike, maglock, automatic gate motor or door operator. If a button on a wall can currently unlock it, WaveGate can replace that button with a paid transaction.
No. They tap a card or wallet, payment authorises and the door opens. The whole flow is friction-free, app-free and account-free.
The door stays locked. WaveGate only triggers the release on an authorised transaction — no payment, no entry. Declined attempts are logged in the dashboard.
Funds settle to your nominated bank account on the Nayax payout schedule for your territory. The dashboard shows expected settlements and a full transaction history.
Yes — the platform is built for fleet operators. Manage pricing, hours and reporting per site or across the whole fleet from one operator account.
Pricing combines a hardware cost per unit with an ongoing transaction-share component tied to the Nayax payments rail. Final pricing depends on territory and volume — please request a quote via the contact page.
Yes — the integration between the access mechanism and the cashless payment terminal is patent-secured. A redacted summary is available to investors and licensees under NDA.
